Unveiling the vehicle in the presence of chief guest German Ambassador Dr. Jurgen Morhard, Chairman/Managing Director of Prestige Automobile Heinz Reuter declared, “This all-new BMW 7 series embodies our quest for modern mobility, highest quality and absolute precision.  It is truly a masterpiece from BMW and probably the best car BMW has ever built.” 

Expanding on the full range of groundbreaking innovations that BMW has introduced and thus set benchmarks for the cars of today, Prestige Automobile (Pvt.) Limited, the authorized importer for BMW for over two decades unveiled two variants of the all-new BMW 7 series.    
The BMW 740Li is powered by a six-cylinder inline engine with the legendary BMW twin power turbo technology, which has not only improved efficiency of the engine but has a more spontaneous response as well.  

It produces an output of 326 hp, an acceleration from 0-100 km in 5.6 seconds and average fuel consumption improvement of 16 percent up to 6.6 litres per 100 kms. CO2 emissions have also improved by 16 percent to 154g per km.
