The Alpina XD3 SUV is not showing just impressive performance, but also incredible fuel consumption numbers. The German tuner claims that the combined efficiency of the tri-turbo engine is rated at 6.8 l/100km (34.5 mpg) whilst CO2 emissions add up to 180 g/km.

As with any Alpina car, the performance has been slightly improved, whilst viability was not affected. The SUV accelerates to 100 km/h (62 mph) in 4.9 seconds (just .2 seconds slower than an X5 M) and has a top speed of 253 km/h.

In the commercial, the founder of Alpina, Mr. Burkhard Bovensiepens presents the reasons behind creating the fist SUV in the company's history and the new features fitted on the XD3.
