BMW 740 Le Xdrive bla bla bla (long name)

Backgroundstory

The CFO of a leading real estate development company in Europe needed someone to drive his fancy 130k BMW. Ofcourse I showed up. Why did he need a driver? Because he broke his leg, I actually escorted the guy from the stairs of his home, felt like he was my grandfanther. He was kind enough to let me go home with his insane car after I dropped him on his destination.

Car

It was a BMW 740Le Xdrive Iperformance petrol/electric car. It does 0-100km/h in 5.5 seconds(!) and is all wheel drive (= Xdrive). It has a V4 engine (belive it or not) and 2 electric motors that give additional power. The "L" stands for extended wheel base (Limousine version). It had the most beautifull interior collor and stitching that I personally have seen. My profile pic on steemit is actually made in this car.

Score

This car is very fast, has a beautifull rear end, and is equiped with a lot of gadgets, even perfume distributor and gesture control. It has a lot of leg room, you can actually stretch your legs in the back. this car deserves a well earned 9/10.

Sort:  

abou t long names I ditto that. what a fucking nonsense those market specialists at MB,MB,VAG are using nowadays..

Good thing the cars are usually as fancy as their names

they for most part are not getting better (like BMW for example) but more marketing specialist based opinion and too much regulated eco norms. GOD FUCK SHIT HOW I MISS THE NATURALLY ASPIRATED BMW STRAIGHT-SIX. and that will never happen again. NEVER

RIP BMW man, mercedes is killing it with their new cars, just ordered a E coupé, looks fancy asf.

I'm loving them leathers 👍 just followed you

Thx bro, you got one follow extra too ;)

So it sounds like the same engine/motor setup as a Prius?
What kind of mpg does it give?
Interesting post @danny1995 and welcome to steemit. ;)

Ty bro! It is actually a gas guzzler for the engine size, it does 35 mpg without electricty and 71 mpg if the electricty is on. Electricity lasts approx 30 miles. A full tank without electricity gave me only 250 miles. The engine is like double fuel injected or something because its insanly fast and slurps a lot fuel.
