BMW 740i (E38)

After the 750i with a V12 engine, the BMW 740i powered by an eight-cylinder engine was the second most powerful version of the 7 Series E38 with an output of 286 hp (210 kW). In the autumn of 1995, BMW increased the displacement to 4.4 litres without changing the power output but continued to retain the product designation unchanged. Until general production of the entire E38 model series came to an end in 2001, the 740i remained in the product range and was by far the most successful model with a production run of nearly 130,000 units.
