The 2010 BMW Alpina B7 Bi-Turbo Allrad with all-wheel-drive exploits the technical potential of BMW’s xDrive System and its intelligent and dynamic distribution of drive power. It continuously and fully variable distributes torque between the front and rear axle within milliseconds.
Alpina makes the performance of interconnected and balanced. The all-wheel-drive system is linked to the Alpina BMW B7 Bi-Turbo’s many electronic control systems, meaning it can offer an unusually broad spectrum of dynamic driving experiences, just like our demanding customers expect. Unique: in combination with the electronic suspension, consisting of Variable Damper Control and Dynamic Drive (active roll stabilisation), the driver can influence the dynamic torque distribution of the all-wheel-drive system using the Drive Dynamic Control buttons to select between the programs.
It makes smooth, fluid sporty driving on winding roads an especially harmonious experience. Regardless of whether Comfort, Normal or Sport is selected, the system recognises lateral acceleration above 0.5 m/s2 as resolute and sport-oriented driving and increases the torque shifted to the rear wheels, without reducing stability.
In addition, the DSC automatically goes into DTC mode, reducing the intervention of the electronic stability program and allowing more slip at any of the driven wheels. Despite the Alpina BMW B7 Bi-Turbo Allrad’s high level of torque, intervention of the DSC stability control system by applying the brakes or by reducing engine output, is only seldom necessary because the intelligent torque distribution is extremely effective at neutralising any indication of under- or oversteer at the onset.
