We were really surprised to hear of a couple of global debut from the Alpina brand making their presence felt at the 2011 Tokyo Motor Show, so we new we had to bring you instant coverage of the pair as soon as possible.
The car you are looking at is the Alpina B6 BiTurbo Coupe, based on the 2012 BMW 6-Series. The big news is that the 4.4-liter aluminum V8 of the 650i has been boosted from 407 hp to an impressive 540 horsepower, thanks to a new exhaust from Akrapovic and a number of other of tech upgrades.
The B6 also has BMW’s SWITCH-TRONIC 8-speed Sport Automatic, which helps it along to 100 km/h in a brisk 4.4 seconds and on to a top speed of 320 km/h (198 mph).
The body of the Alpina B6 BiTurbo has been enhanced by the addition of a 20-inch set of multi-spoke wheels and an aero body kit.
