Powertrain
Impressive output – exemplary efficiency
The new BMW ALPINA D3 S surprises with an engine character that is dominated by its eager willingness to rev up to the red-line, which is rather untypical for a diesel. Furthermore, ALPINA for the first time adopts the innovative BMW mild hybrid technology which features a 48-volt starter generator for immediate throttle response and increased efficiency to effortlessly offer long driving ranges in combination with a high performance output.
The straight-six 3.0 litre engine with Bi-Turbo charging and ALPINA high-performance cooling system offers a maximum output of 261 kW (355 hp). The maximum torque of 730 Nm (538 lbs-ft) is available between 1750 and 2750 rpm for immediate power delivery in every driving situation. The BMW ALPINA D3 S Saloon accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in just 4.6 seconds (Touring in 4.8 seconds) and completes the sprint to 200 km/h in 17.5 seconds (Touring in 18.3 seconds), accompanied by a distinct and lively engine soundtrack. The maximum speed is 273 km/h (Touring 270 km/h).*
*In combination with ALPINA CLASSIC 20" wheel / tyre combination reduced top speed by approximately 3 km/h.
