1 Answers
The BMW 740 has a body length of 5273mm, a width of 1902mm, a height of 1498mm, and a wheelbase of 3210mm. These are official figures. The length of the BMW 740 refers to the distance between two vertical planes perpendicular to the vehicle's longitudinal symmetry plane and touching the outermost protruding parts at the front and rear of the vehicle. The width refers to the distance between two planes parallel to the vehicle's longitudinal symmetry plane and touching the outermost rigid fixed protruding parts on both sides of the vehicle. The height refers to the distance between the highest point of the vehicle and its supporting plane. In terms of power, the BMW 740 comes with four different turbocharged engines across its models: 2.0T, 3.0T, 6.6T, and 4.4T, with the 6.6T and 4.4T being twin-turbocharged. All engines feature direct fuel injection technology and use aluminum alloy cylinder heads and blocks. The 2.0T engine delivers a maximum power of 195kW and a maximum torque of 400Nm, with a power peak between 5000-6500 rpm and torque peak between 1550-4500 rpm. The 3.0T engine delivers a maximum power of 250kW and a maximum torque of 450Nm, with a power peak between 5500-6500 rpm and torque peak between 1500-5200 rpm. The 6.6T engine delivers a maximum power of 430kW and a maximum torque of 850Nm, with a power peak between 5250-5750 rpm and torque peak between 1600-4500 rpm. The 4.4T engine delivers a maximum power of 390kW and a maximum torque of 750Nm, with a power peak between 5500-6000 rpm and torque peak between 1800-4600 rpm. National regulations on vehicle dimensions stipulate that, according to the national standard "GB1589-89," the total width of a vehicle excludes side mirrors. The width limitation ensures sufficient lateral clearance for overtaking between adjacent lanes. This means that, under national standards, the significance of vehicle width data lies in providing adequate space during overtaking, preventing accidents due to excessive width or situations where road markings are narrower than the vehicle. Additionally, national regulations stipulate that the total width of a vehicle must not exceed 2.5m to meet public road usage requirements.
