BMW Confirms Alpina Brand For Australia, B4 Coupe Coming In November

Alpina may not be an official part of the BMW empire, but the low-volume manufacturer has been turning up the wick on a number of BMW road cars for over 50 years.

And now it’s coming to Australia. With the official blessing of BMW Australia, Alpina’s B4 and B3 ranges (based on the BMW 4 Series and BMW 3 Series respectively) are on their way to our shores, with local importer, The In Motion Group, handling distribution.

The first Alpina to be offered will be the B4 Bi-Turbo Coupe, which, with 301kW of power and 600Nm of torque, offers just 16kW less than the BMW M4 but 50Nm more twist.
