BMW's high-dollar flagship sedan is one of the world's first 6speed automatic transmissions. Although both V8 and V12 engines were available previously, only a 4.4 liter V8 version goes on sale initially, called the 745i sedan. A V12 sedan could arrive later.
The V8 engine is said to be loaded with technical advances, including continuously adaptable valve timing, lift and intake tube length. As rated in Europe, it develops 333 hp and 332 pounds feet of torque, which yields a 0 - 60 mph acceleration time of approximately 6.3 seconds.

2008 BMW 745Li safety
If you live in a cold area, and you have a new 2008 BMW 745Li It's always a good idea to head over to a large empty parking lot in your neighborhood when the seasons first snowfall hits. The reason for this is to give you a little time to acquaint yourself with your winter driving abilities in your new BMW 745Li, and feel of your car on the slippery road.
Remember bridges and overpasses freeze first. Slow down and avoid sudden changes in speed or direction.
Keep your 745Li windows clear of snow and ice.
Keep your speed steady and slow. In deeper snow, it's often necessary to use your 745Li's momentum to keep moving.
