First shots: BMW's 400 kW 6.0-litre all-aluminium V12 engine with TwinPower Turbo Technology

BMW's new 7 series is presently arriving in showrooms around the world, so BMW has digitally unveiled the new range-topping 760Li to create extra interest. Due for showrooms in the final quarter of 2009, the BMW 760Li will be powered by a completely new 400 kW 6.0-litre all-aluminium V12 engine with TwinPower Turbo Technology, High Precision Injection with fuel injected directly into the combustion chambers, and BMW’s infinite double-VANOS camshaft adjustment all running through an eight-speed automatic transmission. There are some exceptional shots of the new engine in the image gallery and needless to say, we can't wait to see what it can do when it gets an M badge.
