2015 BMW Alpina B6 xDrive Gran Coupe
Tuner specialist Alpina premieres its latest BMW creation with the B6 xDrive Gran Coupe. Rivaling
Tuner specialist Alpina premieres its latest BMW creation with the B6 xDrive Gran Coupe. Rivaling the M6 Gran Coupe, the B6 performs with 20 fewer horses, but delivers 540 lb-ft of torque to all four wheels through an eight-speed automatic transmission, whereas its counterpart channels 500 lb-ft to just its rear wheels with a seven-speed dual-clutch. Thanks to this upgrade, Alpina’s version zips to 60 mph in a scant 3.7 seconds and tops out at 198 mph – .4 seconds faster and 50 mph more than the M6. The Alpina B6 xDrive Gran Coupe will go on sale shortly after its official unveiling at the New York Auto Show with a price tag just shy of $120,000 USD.
