The new BMW 7 Series.
The new seven series is a luxury car to set the ever increasing bar.
Power
Under the hood is bigger and better than any previous effort in the seven series – the 750iL boasts a mighty 400 horsepower (which is more than 40 more horses than before) and can rocket from zero to sixty in less than five seconds. Although the miles per gallon of the new 4.4 liter V8 engine are a bit modest in terms of conservation (15 city and 23 highway), they are still competitive among the big boys in the luxury class.
Comfort
The new 750iL is big in terms of power, but the older versions often came under a lot of criticism when it came to the interior. Larger bodied individuals often passed up previous cars in the seven series even though the power and handling were second to none, simply because they didn’t feel there was enough room for them in the cockpit.Yet another complaint about the previous model was that there was no seat adjustments to easily accomodate larger individuals.
BMW has reacted to criticisms of the previous model's interior by improving on the cab's head and leg room space. The arrangement of the control panel has also been made to please the driver.
BMW got the interior spot on with ergonomic design for comfort and ease of use.
Behind the Wheel
Incredible, almost space age options take the driving experience and the luxury car’s handling to unimaginable new levels.As ever the number of choices becomes more dream world like with each generation: night vision, side view cameras, rear wheel drive, and pedestrian detection.
The new 750iL also has greatly improved control with individually operating electronic dampers as well as anti-roll technology.The benefits of advanced electronics is that the car is become evident in the wet where the big 7 is up for the challenge.
BMW has always been a force to be reckoned with in the world of luxury cars, but even they seem to have outdone themselves with the new 750iL.This is a car that will make most owners proud of its looks and its dynamics. Certainly many will not mind the eighty thousand dollar tag.
