Alpina B7 F01/F02
Full-Size SedanProduct Gallery
Product Overview
Alpina B7 F01/F02 is a high-performance full-size luxury sedan in production from 2009 to 2015. It was available with a modified N63B44 bi-turbocharged V8 engine that displaced 4.4 liters.
This generation of B7 was based on the F01 BMW 750i or F02 BMW 750Li, depending on the wheelbase. The vehicle received typical Alpina upgrades, which included extensive engine modifications and upgraded cooling for the powertrain.
Interestingly, before the facelift (LCI) the B7 used the old ZF 6HP26 6-speed automatic transmission, even though BMW used the newer 8-speed ZF 8HP all along.
