Sedan · Gasoline · AWD

Car B

M760i xDrive

The BMW M760i xDrive is a luxury AWD saloon that combines extremely quick performance (0–100 km/h in 3.3 s) with space for five and a 500 L trunk. It excels on fast, long trips, but its price and 12.5 L/100 km fuel use make it a poor fit for city or budget‑minded driving.
