The new 4.4L twin-turbocharged eight-cylinder also delivers 590 lb-ft. of torque from 3,000 rpm. With that much available power, it shouldn’t be a surprise that the Alpina B7 xDrive will be fast. It reaches 60 mph in 3.6 seconds, 0.8 seconds faster than its predecessor while reaching a top speed of up to 193 mph.
