Caralogy Verdict

Suitable for

limousine plug-in hybrid among the best in segment: 5th of 14 in Combined range (744 km), 5th of 13 in Thermal cons. estimated (6.6 L/100).

Alternatives to consider

If the priority is Electric WLTP range, the Porsche Panamera 4 E-Hybrid (1st with 50 km) takes the lead. If the priority is Combined range, the Bmw 745Le (1st with 809 km) takes the lead.

In the city: 45 km pure electric ( (mid-table))

With a full battery, the 745Le xDrive drives in pure electric mode for the first 45 km WLTP — placing it 7th of 10 in Electric WLTP range, behind the Porsche Panamera 4 E-Hybrid (50 km). In urban and peri-urban use, the 745Le xDrive behaves like a pure electric sedan in its segment.

Frequently asked questions

BMW 745Le xDrive: what you need to know

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

Where does the 745Le xDrive rank in its segment?#

Among the 14 limousines plug-in hybrid 2018–2022, the 745Le xDrive ranks 7th of 10 in Electric WLTP range (45 km, behind the Porsche Panamera 4 E-Hybrid), 5th of 14 in Combined range (744 km, behind the Bmw 745Le), 5th of 13 in Thermal cons. estimated (6.6 L/100, behind the Bmw 745Le), 9th of 14 in 0–100 km/h (5.1 s, behind the Bmw M8 Competition Coupe).

What is the électrique range of the 745Le xDrive?#

45 km WLTP announced — making it the 7th of 10 in autonomie du segment out of 10 models. The reference is the Porsche Panamera 4 E-Hybrid (50 km).

How much does the 745Le xDrive cost to run?#

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

Why not a Porsche Panamera 4 E-Hybrid instead?#

The Porsche Panamera 4 E-Hybrid leads in Electric WLTP range (50 km vs 45 km). The choice depends on your priorities: check the 745Le xDrive vs Porsche Panamera 4 E-Hybrid duel for a detailed comparison.

How does Caralogy calculate its figures?#

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.
