BMW 840d 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 10 limousines hybrid 2018–2022, the 840d xDrive ranks 2nd of 10 in 0–100 km/h (4.8 s, behind the Bmw 760i xDrive), 6th of 10 in Top speed (250 km/h, behind the Bmw 840d xDrive Convertible), 3rd of 10 in Power-to-weight (178 hp/t, behind the Bmw 760i xDrive).

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

The Bmw 760i xDrive leads in 0–100 km/h (4.2 s vs 4.8 s). The choice depends on your priorities: check the 840d xDrive vs Bmw 760i xDrive 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.
