The legendary BMW 750i

The car BMW 750i - one of the variations of the BMW E38, was released in June 1994, replacing the E32. The model was produced before 2001, and then it was replaced by the E65.

Description

In addition to the BMW 750i, other variations were also published: 728i, 730i, 735i, 740i and a few diesel ones - 725tds, 730d, 740d.

The appearance of the model has changed quite significantly, although the features of the previous body from the E32 are still visible. The car looks more streamlined, the headlights have become a solid block under one glass. The front part and the edge of the trunk are slightly understated.

Although the shell of the BMW 750i has changed, but the car is still similar to its predecessors and is made in the best traditions of the company.

Characteristics

Engine

As standard, the BMW 750i includes an engine M73 with a capacity of 326 horsepower and a volume of 5.4 liters. Its maximum acceleration speed is 250 kilometers per hour, and the engine consumes 13.6 liters per hundred kilometers. The car has a long life span, but it is very sensitive to overheating and water hammering, which is due to the fact that water enters the air intake, which is located too low.

The motor is equipped with cylinders made of aluminum. The car uses an electronic engine management system that functions separately from the fuel feed pedal.

Transmission

The model is equipped with an adaptive automatic transmission, the feature of which is an automatic change of the gear shifting algorithm, depending on the set driving mode.

Suspension

The chassis of the car is made of aluminum and works long, smoothly and gently. There are two levers in front, four behind. Stands stabilizer is recommended to change every 35 thousand, silent blocks - every 50 thousand, and ball - every 100 thousand kilometers.

The ground clearance of the car is only twelve centimeters, which is quite a bit. But it is the model BMW 750i E38 that is equipped with a pneumatic suspension, which has a five-centimeter clearance. For other variations, it could only be installed as an option.

Accessories

The basic configuration of the model included an extensive list of parts: the system of dynamic stability, the adjustment of the stiffness of shock absorbers and body position, ten airbags and even automatic darkening of the glass.

Restyling

At the end of 1998, the BMW 750i was slightly modified. Models of this modification can be determined by narrower turn signals and custom tail lights. In addition, the roof of the trunk has a chrome strip, and the door handles are built lamps that illuminates not only the car, but also the road beneath it.

The standard equipment included the hydraulic boot, and optionally - a system for monitoring tire pressure and dynamic brake monitoring. In case of emergency braking, the mechanism automatically maximizes the pressure in the braking system.

Another choice can be installed one of the three front seats: normal, contour and "active", which is a massage chair with a hydraulic system located inside the pillow.

The structure of the engine has also changed. The six- and eight-cylinder engines now operated both camshafts, and a neutralizer with electric heating was installed in the 12-cylinder.
