Opulent and oh-so-comfortable
The 2024 BMW 740 is a luxurious large sedan designed to be incredibly comfortable. It delivers with tons of available features you didn’t even know you wanted, like heated and ventilated rear seats that recline almost all the way. Even the base model comes with upscale touches like soft-close doors, plus all the details (sunroof, leather upholstery, and great audio systems) that you expect from BMW.

5 reasons to buy the 2024 BMW 740
1. Luxury and comfort
If you like everything just so, you’ll be wowed by the 2024 BMW 740’s approach to luxury and comfort. The standard features include those you’d expect from a top-of-the-line model, including heated front and rear seats and steering wheel, adaptive air suspension, and a heads-up display. Unexpected features like soft close doors that open from the inside or outside with the push of a button add to the 2024 740’s luxury feel.
2. Strong engine
With the 2024 BMW 740, there’s no need to compromise power for comfort. The sedan may be big, but it’s also fast, thanks to a 375-hp 3.0L turbocharged six-cylinder engine paired with a 48-volt mild hybrid electric motor. With that engine and standard rear-wheel drive, the 2024 740 will accelerate from zero to 60 in 4.9 seconds.
3. Luxurious back seat
Whether you regularly travel with more than two adults or like to treat the kids in your life to the finer things, you’ll be impressed by the back seat of the 2024 740. The back has 43.3 inches of rear legroom, more than the front legroom in many cars. Heated rear seats are standard, while ventilated, massaging and reclining seats are available. Best of all is the available drop-down 31-inch theater screen, perfect for keeping passengers entertained on long road trips.
4. Automated driving technologies
If you dread city parking, the 2024 BMW 740 will leave you breathing a sigh of relief, thanks to the standard automated parking system, which can steer into a spot for you. That’s one of many standard driver assist features, including automatic braking and blind spot monitoring. More advanced assist features, including evasive steering assistance, adaptive cruise control, and semi-autonomous highway driving, are available options.
5. Smartphone integration and charging
Leaving the house with a low phone battery is no problem when you’re riding in the BMW 740, thanks to the standard wireless charging pad. Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ integration also come standard, making it easy to connect your phone to the standard 18-speaker Bowers and Wilkins audio system. With podcasts, audiobooks, and music at the ready, you'll never be bored behind the wheel.
