The 2020 BMW 7 Series delivers varying fuel efficiency figures depending on the model and powertrain you go for. Take the 740i, a common sight in the Malaysian market. It's packing that smooth 3.0-litre turbocharged inline-six, and you're looking at a combined fuel consumption roughly around 10.5-11.8 km/L, which translates to about 25-28 mpg. Step up to the 750i xDrive with its beefy 4.4-litre twin-turbo V8, and that drops to around 8.5-9.5 km/L, or 20-23 mpg. If you opt for the plug-in hybrid 745e, you'll get an electric-only range of 50-58 km and a combined fuel consumption as low as 2.0 litres per 100 km. Now, it's worth keeping in mind that real-world fuel economy can be influenced by your driving style, road conditions, and weather. As a luxury flagship sedan, the BMW 7 Series incorporates EfficientDynamics technologies like TwinPower Turbocharging, direct fuel injection, and intelligent lightweight construction. There's also an Eco Pro driving mode to help optimize fuel efficiency. Let's be honest, for a large luxury car that has to balance performance and comfort, achieving these kinds of fuel economy numbers is no small feat.
