2020 BMW 745e xDrive iPerformance is $100 000 Luxury Sedan (First Look in 4K)

BMW offers no less than six versions of the 7 Series, ranging from the most basic - a rear-wheel-drive 740i - to the most bonkers - the high-performance Alpina B7. The 2020 #BMW745e xDrive iPerformance is one of them, but not only must it match up against competitors from the likes of Audi, Mercedes-Benz, and Porsche, it also has to be your preferred flavor of 7 Series.
The 745e xDrive’s turbocharged 3.0-liter inline six-cylinder and electric motor combine for a total system output of just 389 horsepower. That might sound like a lot of power, but it isn’t considering this car weighs nearly 4,850 pounds and also uses a traditional power-sapping all-wheel-drive system. #BMW claims the 745e xDrive can reach 60 miles per hour in 4.9 seconds, and while we can’t refute that number with hard evidence, our butts tell us it doesn’t feel that quick.
Whether or not you like BMW’s big grille treatment is a matter of personal opinion. The act of adopting large grilles on its cars, however, is not, and that action makes BMW a trend follower, not a trend setter.
Design trends are constantly spreading across the auto industry like wildfire because executives think something is the next hot thing. Floating roofs, two-tone painted wheels, and faux exhaust tips are a few current examples. Big grilles, though, are a trend that’s been around for a while now, which means not only is BMW a follower, it’s also late to the game. By the time BMW gets big grilles on all its vehicles, the industry will have moved on to the next trend in grilles (hopefully it’s miniaturization).
Lastly, the 745e’s total range, including its 16 miles of electric range, is only 290 miles. For comparison, an all-electric Tesla Model S has 370 miles of range. The 745e’s inexplicably short range isn’t common to vehicles of its type or size, either; the Volvo S90 AWD PHEV has 490 miles of range and the Porsche Panamera Turbo S e-Hybrid can go 450 miles.
