The 2027 BMW 7 Series makes 394 horsepower and 428 lb-ft of torque from a 3.0-liter inline-6, stretches 212.6 inches on a 126.6-inch wheelbase and carries 19.1 cu ft of luggage. Every figure below comes in two columns, 740 and 740 xDrive, and is the same for both unless a row says otherwise. For the story of the car, see the 2027 7 Series overview; for the price ladder, see the 7 Series trims page.
Engine and Powertrain Specifications
One engine serves both trims: a 3.0-liter BMW TwinPower Turbo inline-6 rated at 394 hp and 428 lb-ft, with 48V mild-hybrid assist.
3.0-Liter TwinPower Turbo Inline-6
| Specification | 740 | 740 xDrive |
|---|---|---|
| Engine | 3.0L TwinPower Turbo inline-6, 48V mild hybrid | 3.0L TwinPower Turbo inline-6, 48V mild hybrid |
| Displacement | 2,998 cc (3.0 L) | 2,998 cc (3.0 L) |
| Horsepower | 394 hp at 5,200 to 6,500 rpm | 394 hp at 5,200 to 6,500 rpm |
| Torque | 428 lb-ft at 1,980 to 5,000 rpm | 428 lb-ft at 1,980 to 5,000 rpm |
| Transmission | 8-speed Sport Automatic with paddle shifters | 8-speed Sport Automatic with paddle shifters |
| Drivetrain | Rear-wheel drive | xDrive all-wheel drive |
| 0-60 mph (BMW preliminary) | 5.2 seconds | 4.9 seconds |
| Fuel | Premium gasoline | Premium gasoline |
Power builds across a broad band: peak torque arrives at 1,980 rpm and holds to 5,000, which is why the car pulls away so easily from a stoplight in Vallejo or a merge onto I-80. The mild-hybrid system is not a plug-in. BMW's 750e xDrive plug-in hybrid, with 483 hp and an estimated electric range of up to 35 miles, arrives in the U.S. in 11/2026.
Exterior Dimensions and Weights
The 7 Series is 212.6 inches long and 76.8 inches wide on a 126.6-inch wheelbase, with curb weight of 4,733 pounds for the 740 and 4,852 pounds for the 740 xDrive.
| Dimension | 740 | 740 xDrive |
|---|---|---|
| Overall length | 212.6 inches | 212.6 inches |
| Width (without mirrors) | 76.8 inches | 76.8 inches |
| Width (with mirrors) | 85.6 inches | 85.6 inches |
| Height | 61.0 inches | 61.0 inches |
| Wheelbase | 126.6 inches | 126.6 inches |
| Curb weight | 4,733 pounds | 4,852 pounds |
The extra 119 pounds on the 740 xDrive are the all-wheel-drive hardware. Both trims ride on adaptive 2-axle air suspension, which adjusts the dampers to the road surface automatically and eases loading, and available Integral Active Steering turns the rear wheels up to 3.5 degrees: opposite the front wheels at low speed for tighter turns, the same direction at highway speed for stability in a lane change.
The air suspension is the reason a 4,852-pound sedan rides calmly over the cambers and the expansion joints of a freeway run near American Canyon and the Silverado Trail out of Napa.
Interior Dimensions and Cargo Volume
The cabin seats five, with 43.3 inches of rear legroom and a 19.1 cu ft trunk that is the same on both trims.
| Measurement | Front row | Rear row |
|---|---|---|
| Head room | 39.8 inches | 38.3 inches |
| Leg room | 41.2 inches | 43.3 inches |
| Shoulder room | 61.0 inches | 56.3 inches |
| Capacity | 740 | 740 xDrive |
|---|---|---|
| Seating | 5 passengers | 5 passengers |
| Trunk (cargo volume) | 19.1 cu ft | 19.1 cu ft |
| Fuel tank | 19.5 gallons | 19.5 gallons |
Rear legroom is the number that defines this car: at 43.3 inches the second row has 2.1 inches more legroom than the front row, which is the reason the Executive Lounge seat has room to recline while the front passenger seat slides forward. A lounge rear seat, a Theatre Screen and a video-conference camera only make sense when the seat has room to use them.
Rear Lounge and Technology Specifications
The second row carries the most distinctive equipment on the car: a 31.3-inch 8K BMW Theatre Screen, Bowers & Wilkins Diamond Surround Sound and Executive Lounge seating, all available.
| Equipment | Specification |
|---|---|
| BMW Theatre Screen (available) | 31.3-inch, 8K, extends from the roof on command with cinematic background music; integrated camera for video calls; touch control |
| Theatre Screen connections | Up to two Bluetooth headphones and two game controllers; HDMI port; BMW Digital Premium Package, phone hotspot or stationary Wi-Fi |
| Executive Lounge seating (available) | Rear door opened from the Central Display; rear seat behind the front passenger tilts back while that front seat slides forward; extending footrest; massage programs; heated seats with active ventilation |
| Bowers & Wilkins Diamond Surround Sound (available) | Dolby Atmos sound from every seat |
| BMW Passenger Screen | 14.6-inch full HD display for the front passenger, with films, games and Bluetooth headphones and controllers |
| Front display | BMW Panoramic iDrive display, BMW Panoramic Vision across the windshield, BMW 3D Head-up Display, BMW Operating System X |
Each of these is tied to the rear-legroom figure above: the Executive Lounge seat needs the room, the Theatre Screen needs the headroom under the roof, and the camera on the Theatre Screen turns the second row into a place to take a video call between Vacaville and Travis Air Force Base.
Wheels, Tires and Brakes
The 7 Series rides on 20-inch wheels with the Luxury design and on 20-inch or 21-inch M wheels with the M Sport packages, all on all-season tires.
| Design package | Wheels | Brakes |
|---|---|---|
| Luxury ($0 MSRP) | 20-inch Star-Spoke Midnight Grey wheels | Standard brakes |
| M Sport ($3,900 MSRP) | 20-inch M Aero Bicolor wheels | M Sport brakes with blue calipers |
| M Sport Professional ($4,550 MSRP) | 21-inch M wheels (M Aero Cross-Spoke on the 740 xDrive, M Star-Spoke on the 740) | M Sport brakes with black calipers |
Fuel Economy and Range
EPA rates both 7 Series trims at 24 city / 30 highway / 26 combined mpg on premium gasoline (fueleconomy.gov).
| Trim | City | Highway | Combined |
|---|---|---|---|
| 740 | 24 mpg | 30 mpg | 26 mpg |
| 740 xDrive | 24 mpg | 30 mpg | 26 mpg |
A 19.5-gallon tank on a 26-mpg combined rating puts a long highway drive comfortably between fuel stops, and xDrive costs no mpg on the EPA label.
Key Features by Trim
S marks standard equipment, O marks available equipment, and "not std" marks equipment that is not standard on that trim.
| Feature | 740 | 740 xDrive |
|---|---|---|
| xDrive all-wheel drive | not std | S |
| Steering Assistant, Lane Keeping and Emergency Brake Assistant | S | S |
| Park Assist with 360-degree camera | S | S |
| Highway & Commuting Assistant (hands off to 85 mph) | O | O |
| Parking Assistant Professional | O | O |
| Integral Active Steering | O | O |
| Executive Lounge rear seating | O | O |
| 31.3-inch 8K BMW Theatre Screen | O | O |
| Bowers & Wilkins Diamond Surround Sound with Dolby Atmos | O | O |
| BMW Digital Key Plus | O | O |
Safety and Driver Assistance
Every 7 Series includes the Steering Assistant, the Lane Keeping and Emergency Brake Assistant and Park Assist with a 360-degree camera, and emergency service, airbag deployment notification and stolen-vehicle tracking come standard. The available Highway & Commuting Assistant adds hands-off driving up to 85 mph when the system is ready and the driver stays attentive.
Driver assistance is not a single package but a layered set. The standard layer keeps the car centered, brakes for you in an emergency and watches all 360 degrees when you park. The available layer, Highway & Commuting Assistant, maintains speed, distance and steering, and Parking Assistant Professional pulls the car in and out of a saved space after you perform the maneuver once. In stop-and-go commute traffic around Fairfield, the layered approach is what keeps a long commute calm.
Warranty Coverage
BMW covers every 2027 7 Series for 4 years or 50,000 miles, with 3 years or 36,000 miles of BMW Ultimate Care scheduled maintenance.

Intervals and ownership detail are on our 7 Series service and maintenance page. Roadside assistance is not a warranty.
What These 2027 BMW 7 Series Numbers Mean in Practice
A 7 Series is a full-size sedan, and four numbers decide how it lives with you.
| Number | What it means |
|---|---|
| 85.6 inches wide with mirrors | Plan on folding the mirrors in a tight two-car garage; the 76.8-inch body is the figure for marked parking stalls. |
| 212.6 inches long | A full-size sedan length: it fits a standard garage bay, and the 126.6-inch wheelbase is where the rear legroom comes from. |
| 43.3 inches of rear legroom | Room for a tall adult to recline with the Executive Lounge seat, or for two to sit comfortably through a long drive. |
| 19.1 cu ft trunk | A full weekend for two with room to spare, on both trims. |
Rear-wheel steering helps with the length: available Integral Active Steering turns the rear wheels up to 3.5 degrees, which makes parking in tight garages noticeably easier.
