BMW has given its 7 Series plug-in hybrid family an update in 2019. The new BMW 745Le and 745e inherited the powertrain from the BMW X5 xDrive45e<\/a> to provide additional power and electric range to its customers. The 745Le is simply labeled as the 745e in the United States, but the European market gets a choice of a short or long-wheelbase 7 Series hybrid.<\/p>\n The new plug-in hybrid system now includes an in-line 6-cylinder petrol engine that has been adapted on a model-specific basis to produce a peak output of 210 kW\/286 hp. An electric motor with a rated output of 83\u00a0kW\/113\u00a0hp and a rated torque of 265\u00a0Nm is paired with the combustion engine.<\/p>\n When the driving experience switch is set to SPORT mode, an overall system output of 290 kW\/394 hp is available and a maximum system torque of 600 Nm. The new BMW\u00a0745e accelerates in 5.2 seconds from zero to 100 km\/h, while the new BMW\u00a0745Le takes 5.3\u00a0seconds.<\/p>\n
