BMW 740d xDrive: what you need to know

Well-argued answers to the most asked questions about this model, based on Caralogy data and simulations.

Among the 30 limousines 2016–2020, the 740d xDrive ranks 22th of 30 in 0–100 km/h (5.2 s, behind the Porsche Panamera Turbo), 11th of 30 in Top speed (250 km/h, behind the Porsche Panamera Turbo), 27th of 30 in Power-to-weight (171 hp/t, behind the Bmw M850i xDrive).

Running costs depend on your profile (mileage, charging type, city/highway mix). Use the Caralogy consumption simulator for a personalised estimate.

The Porsche Panamera Turbo leads in 0–100 km/h (3.6 s vs 5.2 s). The choice depends on your priorities: check the 740d xDrive vs Porsche Panamera Turbo duel for a detailed comparison.

Caralogy does not reproduce manufacturer figures: we recalculate every number through physics simulation, starting from SCx, mass and the power curve. This is why our figures at 130 km/h differ from WLTP. Full methodology on the dedicated page.
