2019 Alpina B6 Safety
The Alpina B6 and the BMW 6 Series Gran Coupe have both not been crash-tested by the NHTSA or IIHS. However, BMW's high reputation for safe vehicles and many standard safety features for the B6 provide peace of mind.
2019 Alpina B6 Key Safety Features
Dual front airbags, front side airbags, head airbags, and a driver's knee airbag keep passengers safe in the unfortunate event of an accident. While safety features like a backup camera and a rear parking aid are appreciated, it's a pity that the various driver-assist features are only optional. Opt for the Driver Assistance package, and you'll get blind-spot monitoring, a head-up display, a forward-collision warning system, pedestrian detection, low-speed collision mitigation and lane departure warning. Adaptive cruise control and a handy side and top-view camera system are also available, but rear cross-traffic alert is not.

2019 Alpina B6 Reliability
While no recalls have been issued for the Alpina B6 over the last few years, the model's low production numbers must also be taken into account. While the 2019 6 Series on which the B6 is based suffered no recalls, it might be well worth noting the 6 Series Gran Coupe was recalled twice as a 2018 model - once for a crankshaft sensor firmware issue, and once for no image displayed by the reverse camera. J.D. Power has also not yet rated this vehicle. A four-year/50,000 mile basic warranty covers the Alpina B6, along with a four-year/50,000-mile drivetrain warranty. Maintenance covers three years or 36,000 miles, whichever comes first.
