2020 BMW 745e xDrive iPerformance: Pros And Cons

The full-size uber-luxe sedan segment is chock full of good choices. The 2020 BMW 745e 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. 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.

Somewhere in the middle of the model lineup is the 745e xDrive. Its claim to fame is being a plug-in hybrid. Unfortunately, it’s not a very good plug-in hybrid because it can only manage 16 miles of all-electric range. Once that’s gone, it operates essentially as a traditional hybrid. And it’s still not even the most fuel efficient 7 Series in the lineup. That’s why the 745e xDrive shouldn’t be your 7 Series of choice, let alone the full-size luxury sedan you choose over all others.

If plug-in hybrid luxury cars are your thing, the Volvo S90 AWD PHEV does the green thing better with a longer electric range and better hybrid efficiency, and the Porsche Panamera Turbo S E-Hybrid, while a bit less green than the 745e xDrive, is way more fun to drive. So tell us, BMW, if the 745e xDrive is neither particularly efficient nor very fast, why did you make it?

BMW is moving to big grilles. The move has already begun, with the X7 full-size three-row crossover SUV and the 7 Series both now wearing them. For better or worse, they’re here, and whether or not you’re a fan of the trend, you can’t deny they have a visual impact.
When you’re paying upwards of six-figures for a car, presence is probably something you’re seeking. The 7 Series is no wall flower, and with those engorged kidneys leading the way, its oversized personality arrives at your destination before you do (read our review of the 750i for an alternative take on that grille).

In addition to the grille, this 745e xDrive also has the M Sport package, a $3,400 option that includes the brand’s dark Shadowline exterior trim, a special aerodynamic kit that includes a more aggressive front fascia, an M-branded steering wheel, and an anthracite headliner. It looks like a proper sport sedan at least, though its tepid plug-in hybrid powertrain quickly quells that notion.
