This BMW Alpina SUV is limited to just 120 units
What's the story
BMW has launched a special edition of the Alpina XB7 SUV, marking the end of production for this model. The new variant is called the "Alpina XB7 Manufaktur," and only 120 units will be made. Each unit will be available in two color options: Frozen Alpina Green or Frozen Alpina Blue. The exterior trim is all-black instead of the usual bright silver, with an elaborate black pinstripe on the body side.
Unique attributes
The SUV features Tartufo Merino leather upholstery
The Alpina XB7 Manufaktur comes with 23-inch forged 20-spoke Alpina rims, exclusive badging on the liftgate, and a laser-etched logo on the B-pillars. The interior is lined with Tartufo Merino leather in a color called Walnut Nature Black. Special Alpina embroidery adorns the headrests and a "1 of 120" plaque sits on the center console. Second-row captain's chairs are standard along with a Bowers & Wilkins Diamond surround-sound stereo system.
Engine
It is backed by a twin-turbocharged V8 engine
The Alpina XB7 Manufaktur is powered by a 631hp twin-turbo V8 engine, the same as the standard XB7 model. The SUV can go from 0-97km/h in just 3.9 seconds. An air suspension system that lowers the XB7 by 1.6-inch for better handling is also standard on this special edition car.
Availability
Production will begin in September
The Alpina XB7 Manufaktur comes with a price tag of $181,550. Production will begin in September 2026 at BMW's Spartanburg plant in South Carolina. The end of the XB7 production marks a transition period as the newly formed BMW Alpina brand is expected to introduce new models in the coming years, promising enhanced performance and luxury over standard BMWs.
