Straight-six power is making a return to the U.S.-spec 2011 BMW 7 Series with its 740i and 740Li models, which will bow at the 2010 Detroit show. Housing the German automaker's twin-turbocharged, direct-injection 3.0L inline-six engine under the hood, the new 7 Series variant will output 315 hp and 330 lb-ft of torque (15 hp and 30 lb-ft more than in the 335i) when it hits showrooms next spring. The eight-cylinder 750i and 750Li will continue to be sold alongside the six-cylinder model.
The 2011 740i and Li models will feature an adaptive six-speed automatic transmission and brake energy regeneration to further boost the car's efficiency. According to BMW, the new engine and transmission will allow for a V-8-like driving experience, but with improved fuel economy. Both the 740i and Li will be available with all of the current option packages, including the M Sport Package, Driver Assistance Package, Luxury Seating Packages, Rear Entertainment Package, and BMW Individual Composition Package.
The last 7 Series model to offer a six-cylinder option in the U.S. was the 218-hp 1992 735i and iL, while the original 7 Series -- the 733i -- launched in the U.S. in 1977 exclusively with a 3.2L I-6 that produced 197 hp.
BMW says pricing for the 2011 740i and 740Li will be announced at a later date.
