The 2016 BMW 7 Series's M760Li xDrive model, first showcased at the 2016 Geneva Motor Show, had its Asian debut at Auto China 2016 (2016 Beijing Motor Show) held last month. The M760Li xDrive is the new range-topping model of the 2016 7 Series model, and as its name suggests, is available only in long-wheelbase version.
