REVIEW: BMW's flagship returns to take on the Mercedes-Benz S-Class, this time in petrol PHEV format. We find out if it's the one to buy...
’s, but for where this car will sell , you can understand why BMW has styled it like it has. I actually don’t mind the crystal-effect plastic running around the dash, but it won’t be to everyone’s tastes.This M760e starts under electric-only propulsion and is, as ever, smooth in this mode. The engine, when it fires, is also barely noticeable and it’s a great companion for wafting.
The same isn’t true of the ride quality as I’m not sure it is quite up there with the, admittedly standout, electric i7. I haven’t driven the two back to back, but my hunch is the PHEV car thrums across ridges more and doesn’t do quite such an easy job of isolating the worst of the Tarmac. Where the i7 has the most wonderfully cushioned damping, this M760e lets the wheel movement enter into the cockpit a bit more, especially under load.
The upside is a chassis that isn’t quite as susceptible to roll as the weightier i7’s but there’s no disguising the still sizeable heft of the M760e over a series of switchbacks, despite the accurate steering doing its best to keep things in check. In other words, the trade-off in the ride isn’t worth the upside in a slightly better driver’s car. As such, and despite the interesting engine note, the i7 remains the exec 7 Series of choice.
