2011 BMW 7-Series to Have V6


Traditionally the BMW 7-Series has boasted either a V8 or V12 engine. Not any longer. For model year 2011 the 740 and 740iL will have a six cylinder bi-turbo setup. “Virtual Displacement” is what BMW calls the dropping of 2 cylinders and replacing them with two turbochargers.  Engine output will be 315HP at 5800 RPM.
