The recently launched BMW 7 Series now has a prestigious flagship at the head of the range: the new M760Li xDrive V12.

The new model marks the debut of a M Performance TwinPower Turbo V12 engine to provide stunning performance with exemplary refinement. With TwinPower Turbo technology incorporated for the first time, the new M Performance engine produces 600bhp and 800Nm of torque.

Power is harnessed by a highly sophisticated chassis specifically tailored to the model, and deployed to the road via BMW's xDrive permanent all-wheel drive system with a rear-bias for more dynamic handling.

The M aerodynamic package fitted as standard give it even greater visual presence. The new model is instantly recognisable thanks to the M Performance body enhancements, specific trim details and unique double-spoke 20-inch M light-alloy wheels. An active quad exit exhaust system ensures that, when desired, the presence of the new M760Li xDrive V12 can be heard as well as seen.

Inside, the M760Li xDrive V12 retains the luxurious ambience of the new BMW 7 Series, but adds sporting elements such as the M Performance steering wheel and illuminated V12 logo and exclusive M pedals. As expected, the model features an extremely extensive list of equipment as standard, with a long list of comfort, convenience, safety and dynamic driving features.

The BMW M760Li xDrive V12 goes on sale towards the end of 2016 with prices being announced nearer the time.
