The XB7 is a standalone model by Alpina but manufactured by BMW at its Spartanburg plant. The engine and gearbox are Alpina-fettled. The result is 612 hp and 590 lb-ft, sent to the AWD system via an eight-speed automatic transmission. Alpina claims a 0-60 mph time of four seconds and a top speed of 180 mph. The XB7 also gets a bespoke suspension setup.
On the outside, the XB7 comes with LED lights, 21-inch alloy wheels, new front and rear fascias, and quad tailpipes. The upgraded interior comes with Merino leather, and 18-way power-adjustable seats with heating, ventilation, and a massaging function. Alpina also removes the iDrive controller, shifter, and steering wheel and replaces these items with its custom-made units, which feature hand-stitched leather and crystal glass. The 12.3-inch touchscreen is carried over from the standard X7, albeit with custom graphics. A 16-speaker Harman Kardon sound system is stock fitted.
Standard safety systems include active blind spot assist, a parking assistant, lane keep assist, frontal collision warning with city collision mitigation, active cruise control, and a surround-view camera system. A full-color head-up display is also standard.
The price of the 2022 BMW Alpina XB7 SUV starts at an MSRP of $141,450, excluding the destination charge of $995. We built our example, featuring Dravit Grey paint, 23-inch Alpina Classic wheels, a full black leather interior with Alpina Piano Black trim, and a few must-have standalone options. The total came to just over $155,000.
There are no optional packages available for the XB7, which is comprehensively outfitted as is. But a host of standalone features are available, and, considering the luxurious nature of the car, we'd add most of them. The panoramic Sky Lounge LED roof costs $750, while the five-zone climate control adds $800 to the price. Second-row captain's chairs ($850) are a must, as is the rear-seat entertainment system ($2,200).
There is only one model, but there are a few optional extras to throw on. We'd spec ours in Dravit Grey metallic with the Ivory White full-leather package. We'd have to add the spectacular Sky Lounge LED roof and the second-row captain's chairs. Since this is the epitome of luxury, we'd want the rear-seat entertainment system. As built, you're looking at a total of nearly $150,000 including destination, for the BMW Alpina XB7 SUV.
