The BMW N73 was a naturally aspirated V12 petrol engine produced from 2003 to 2016, replacing the M73 and used in the E65 7 Series and the Rolls-Royce Phantom VII. It was the first production V12 in the world to use gasoline direct injection. Against the M73 it has double overhead camshafts, double-VANOS and Valvetronic variable valve lift. Its continuously variable VANOS units are built into the chain drive with adjustment ranges of 63 degrees on the intake camshaft and 60 degrees on the exhaust, the redline is 6,500 rpm, and Valvetronic varies intake valve lift from 0.30 to 9.85 millimetres with a motor, control module and sensor on each head. The 5,972 cc N73B60 powered the 760i, the 6,749 cc N73B68 powered the Phantom, and the twin-turbocharged N74 superseded it.
