2026 BMW 740i xDrive M Sport Pro (G70) — GERMAN MARKET SPECIFICATION

Engine and Drivetrain

The 740i xDrive uses BMW's B58 3.0-litre turbocharged inline-six petrol engine of 2,998 cc, supported by a 48-volt mild-hybrid starter-generator rated at 13 kW (18 hp) and 200 Nm. Peak output after the facelift is 294 kW (400 PS) between 5,200 and 6,500 rpm, with 540 Nm from the combustion engine between 1,980 and 5,000 rpm and 580 Nm of system torque. Drive reaches all four wheels through an eight-speed Steptronic automatic transmission and BMW xDrive. The 48-volt system supports coasting, engine-off gliding and brake energy recuperation; it cannot be plugged in and cannot drive the car on electricity alone, so this is a petrol vehicle and not a plug-in hybrid.

Chassis, Steering and Brakes

Double-wishbone front axle and five-link rear axle in aluminium construction, with adaptive two-axle air suspension, automatic self-levelling and electronically controlled dampers. Integral Active Steering is fitted, adding a rear-axle steering angle that shortens the turning circle at low speed and stabilises the car at motorway speed. Ventilated disc brakes front and rear with four-piston fixed front calipers, backed by Dynamic Stability Control including ABS, Dynamic Traction Control, Cornering Brake Control and Dynamic Brake Control.

The facelifted G70 measures 5,395 mm long, 1,950 mm wide excluding mirrors and 2,173 mm across the mirrors, and 1,550 mm tall, on a 3,215 mm wheelbase. EC unladen weight is 2,235 kg and permissible gross weight is 2,830 kg, giving a payload of 670 kg. Luggage capacity is 540 litres and fuel tank capacity is 74 litres. Braked trailer load is 2,100 kg at a 12 per cent gradient with an 85 kg towbar download.
