2019 Alpina B6 Performance

There's just a single engine option available for the B6, although you'd hardly want anything else. The Alpina-fettled 4.4-liter V8 uses twin-turbocharging to deliver 591 horsepower and a crushing 590 lb-ft of torque. Together with the xDrive system and a slick-shifting eight-speed automatic transmission, it's enough for a 3.6-second blast to 60 mph. This is faster than the similarly swoopy Mercedes-Benz CLS 53 AMG, and you'll need the likes of the even more powerful E63 AMG S to keep up with the B6. Unrestricted, the B6 will reach 200 mph. If this is the kind of car you're on the hunt for, the B6 tops the class with its absurd level of straight-line performance.

Engine and Transmission

Alpina has extracted impressive outputs of 591 hp and 590 lb-ft from the twin-turbocharged 4.4-liter V8. A number of modifications, including optimizing the air intake ducting and enhancing the fuel supply system are responsible for the hike in power. It sounds epic, too, thanks to a special lightweight exhaust system. Whether pulling away from a standing start, munching up the miles on the highway, or overtaking at virtually any speed, the B6 delivers mind-blowing performance. The engine is well-matched to an Alpina-tuned eight-speed automatic transmission. It has been modified by Alpina to prevent unwanted upshifts in more aggressive driving environments. It's a superb transmission that changes gears smoothly and enhances, rather than takes away from the monumental driving experience.

2019 Alpina B6 Gas Mileage

Despite the increase in power, Alpina has also managed to improve fuel consumption numbers over the M6 Gran Coupe. EPA-rated figures are 17/25/20 mpg on the city/highway/combined cycles. A full, 18.5 gallon gas tank results in a combined cruising range of 388 miles. By comparison, the M6 Gran Coupe's mixed consumption figure is just 16 mpg. Considering that the B6 uses a heavier xDrive system as opposed to the M6's RWD layout, it's an impressive feat indeed.
