The idea is that Rolls Royce could be the only ones to use this engine. A variation of this V12 does exist in the Phantom, but it’s the Ghost that has a nearly identical powerplant.

My bet is that BMW is currently undecided on the V12 7 Series because they’re waiting to see what Mercedes are doing with the upcoming S Class.

The flagship V8 and V12 will remain for sometime. Remember the Rolls Royce Phantom shares the V12 that sits in the F01 (760Li).

Cheers!
