There is a reason why BMW is not interested in updating the 760i. The most propable reason is low selling volumes. Audi hasn't updated their W12 either. Could be that Audi and BMW have questioned their V12 customers what they want from their car and found out that power isn't an important factor as long as it's adequate.

V12 from 760i underpowered?I donīt think so..This engine is made to deliver silky smooth driving experience,not adrenaline overload and kick to your back when throtle is floored IMO..and as I see it,this V12 is best german engine with V12 concept on the market today
With V8 TT 7-series will get proper performance but it will never have feel or electric powed delivery of V12

In the article they mention the V8 TT engine with 490 Hp as additional choice

The engine is capable of delivering more than 500 HP & 500 ft.lbs of Torque, but I think it will be pegged in the low 400.
I think it will be pegged around the 420 HP/420 ft.lbs figure.

Indeed! I think the CS grille looks very clear in this pic! I think this can be regarded as a confirmation of this design clue..
