The freshly launched BMW 7 Series could benefit from a substantial upgrade in the near future. According to the Bavarian company's sources the Germans Flagman will host a huge petrol engine, V12, taken from Rolls-Royce! It will debut in the 760i and 760Li version!
At present, the most powerful model in the 7 Series range is the BMW 750i equipped with a 4.4 liter V8 turbo-aspirated, delivering 450 horsepower and has proved to be extremely efficient for a car in its segment.
Hopefully, however, this is about to change and the brand enthusiasts will finally see a competitor to S8 and S-Class AMG. If the rumors are confirmed, then the 7 series will host under its hood a 6.6-liter V12 volume aspirated turbo that develops 600 horsepower!
Moreover, we can expect the same from the M760i version, which uses the same engine services, only modified to produce 600 horsepower, which positions the new 7 Series in a different league! It is not known yet if the versions 760i and M760i will get the xDrive system or will remain faithful to the RWD layout, but we could find out in the spring this year when BMW will reveal new models to the world!
