Xpert Opinion

The BMW 760li is one of the premium luxury saloons in the world today. It is amazingly smooth, calm and roomy. Its interior is faultlessly finished. It offers extraordinary handling with a magic carpet ride. The six-speed automatic transmission is one of the best in its segment, and V12 engine is highly efficient and impressively powerful. The technology, mainly the iDrive concept seems more like a hindrance than a help. All in all, except for the overdone technological part, its one performance oriented flawless car that’s been specifically designed to provide hassle free and safe running!
