BMW M760Li xDrive

This blog is about the car 2019 BMW 7 Series Facelift M 760Li xDrive. As the name suggests the car was launched by Bayerische Motoren Werke (BMW), on 25th of July 2019. BMW made its first impression in 1928, where it started the production of cars (automobile). By the end of the year 2002, BMW took-over Rolls-Royce. On the same year, BMW opened a manufacturing site for the production of Rolls-Royce.

The car’s price is approximately 2.43-crores INR, and the on-road price is 2.89 crores INR. This is the most expensive BMW of all time. This sedan car is also the first M 7 (the high performance division) reaches 100km/h in just 3.7s. The M in the name (M 760 Li) shows that it has been modified to achieve the highest level of performance by the team. The engine, brakes, transmission and the aerodynamics are modified. There can be a few interior changes that create a luxury feeling and presence of greatness.

This car has a V12 6.6 litre, twin-turbo engine capable of producing a Torque of 590 and 601 Horse-Power (a.k.a Power). There is a lot of confusion in everyone about the difference between Torque and Power. Let me make it clear:

· Power is the rate of doing any work; it is measured using a dynamo-meter. Power is related to speed, the faster you want to go the more power your car requires.

· Torque is the rotational or the twisting force of any object in this situation it is the engine. Torque is the strength of the vehicle created by the rotation of the engine around its imaginary axis.

HP= (Torque*RPM)/5252

RPM is the revolutions per minute.

The dynamo-meter is used to calculate the Power; however it calculates the Torque of the engine and the RPM. These values are plugged into the above formulae to calculate the Power.

Using the above formulae we can calculate the maximum RPM of the car (y):

601= (590*y)/5252

590y= 3156452

Hence: y=5349.91

This shows that the car’s engine maximum revolution in one minute (as it is revolutions per minute) is 5349.

The coolest feature of the car is that few features of the display screen can be carried out by gesture-based interface. That’s one thing that none of us would have expected. The car also has one important feature that can blow your mind where, the car can automatically park itself. The car is surrounded by sensors and it can automatically navigate itself into the parking lot. The car key has the option of pulling the car out and into the garage. The car displays the speed and the mileage on the windshield in front of the driver, but does not affect the drivers view.

The sun roof is surrounded by led bulbs with more than 15,000 patterns. The car is manufactured in a way that it greets the user as you open the door by rays of light falling on the ground. The car has 8-stepronic automatic transmission, which helps to optimize the efficiency and increase the use of engines power. The eighth gear reduces the number of revolutions (RPM) at high speeds reducing the fuel consumption and the noise produced by the engine.

The car also assists in lane control where, if the car is in the wrong lane it indicates to change the lanes. This won’t be really useful in India. The car also has a wireless charging tray for the phone and the key itself. A small blue light indicates that the phone is charging. The car also automatically notifies the user if the phone is left in the charging tray while leaving the car so that they don’t forget to take it with them.

If you are a person interested in driving up hill and downhill then this car satisfies your needs. This car has the feature of hill assist that basically helps the driver to momentarily switch their leg from the brake pedal to the accelerator. For ex: while driving up the hill or on a slope, during a signal the driver should press the brake pedal with a normal force. While it changes to green the hill assist comes into play and allows the driver to change his leg without the car rolling backwards.

The car has wide headlights with LED bulbs to cover more area of the road and make it easier for the driver to view the road. The kidney grills have another layer of chrome bars that helps reduce the drag co-efficient according to the temperature of the engine. The back seat of the car is called as the sky lounge where there is enough leg room for a person to stretch his or her legs. There is a small tab in the arm rest that allows the user to have access to all the features in the car. Using the tab the seat of the car can be turned to a massage mode where the seat starts massaging the body.

These are the features of my dream car, if this applies to you then share your comments about your expectations of the future super-cars.
