2024 BMW Alpina XB7 Safety and Reliability

Low-volume luxury vehicles like these are never crash-tested, so there aren't any official safety reviews for the BMW Alpina XB7 or the X7 SUV on which it's based. We can assume that, together with a solid structure, the long list of safety features and driver assists will ensure all occupants arrive at their destination in one piece.

The standard safety equipment on the XB7 is generous, starting with the required backup camera and stability/traction control systems, tire-pressure monitoring, and a full complement of airbags across all rows (including special sensors that prevent unnecessary deployment). Other features include adaptive LED headlights, automatic high beams, active lane-keep assist, side-collision avoidance, and parking assist with surround-view camera and park-distance control. The Active Driving Assistant Professional package bundles together traffic-jam assist, steering and lane-keeping assistant, lane-change assistant, emergency-stop assist, evasion aid, daytime pedestrian protection, frontal-collision warning, and active blind-spot detection.

So far, the XB7 is free from recalls for 2024, 2023, and 2022, and there's just one recall listed for 2021 for an inaccessible child seat tether anchor. Reliability seems to be a strong suit of the brand, with a rating from J.D. Power of 79 out of 100 for Quality & Reliability of the 2023 Alpina XB7, since the latest version has not yet been subject to review.

As standard, the 2024 BMW Alpina XB7 warranty covers four years or 50,000 miles, with 12 years and unlimited miles covered under rust perforation. Roadside assistance is included for four years, regardless of mileage driven.
