The BMW 7 Series has several models, such as the 740Li, which accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in 5.39 seconds. RPM before launch: With the electronic stability control turned off and switched to SPORT mode, following the conventional launch control method, this 740Li can maintain a 3000rpm before launch. As soon as the brake pedal is released, the car delivers an extremely intense burst of acceleration. Actual 0-100 km/h driving time: As the acceleration process continues, the perceived force of the acceleration weakens, but this does not affect the 740Li's acceleration capability. Its 0-100 km/h time of 5.39 seconds is still faster than many competitors in its class.

Recently I drove a BMW 7 Series 740i, which accelerates from 0-100 km/h in about 5.5 seconds, but this depends on the specific configuration. The BMW 7 Series has multiple models, such as the 750i which completes the acceleration in around 4.7 seconds with a light press of the throttle, and the top-of-the-line M760Li with a V12 engine that does it in under 3.8 seconds, delivering an extremely strong push-back feeling. The engines are all turbocharged, starting with an output of 400 horsepower, and the four-wheel-drive system ensures no wheel slip during acceleration. The car has a low center of gravity, making it very stable when cornering, and overtaking on the highway is effortless. The hybrid version like the 745e accelerates in under 5 seconds, offering better fuel economy, but the pure electric range is short. Personally, I prefer the rear-wheel-drive version for its smooth acceleration, making it both fast and stable, ideal for long-distance travel.

As a frequent driver, I personally tested the BMW 7 Series 750i, which accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in 4.5 seconds. The throttle response is extremely quick, with a slight push feeling at startup, and the gear shifts are smooth without any jerking. The steering is precise, and the power feels endless, making daily driving effortless. It's best to switch driving modes on rainy or snowy slippery roads rather than pushing too hard. The fuel consumption is around 12L, which isn't too high. Acceleration times are affected by road conditions and tires—new tires with better grip provide more accurate acceleration figures. Overall, the BMW 7 Series has ample power without being overly aggressive, offering comfort and reliability.

The BMW 7 Series' 0-100 km/h acceleration time varies by model. The 740i takes 5.4 seconds, while the 750i reduces it to 4.8 seconds. Don't just chase numbers—safety comes first, especially in crowded urban areas where rapid starts can easily lead to rear-end collisions. The car has strong power, but ABS and traction control systems help keep it stable. In normal driving, a 4-second acceleration is smooth enough for overtaking without feeling abrupt. Be gentler in bad weather or on slippery roads. Most users find this acceleration reasonable and not dangerous.
