Alpina from Buchloe in the Allg\u00e4u region of Germany has been known for many years for high-quality, high-performance vehicles based on BMWs. Their latest project is based on the new 3 Series of the G20 series introduced last year and is named D3 S. With these two letters and the number everything is already clear for fans of the brand: it is a 3 Series with a sporty set-up and diesel engine. This makes it the ideal vehicle for frequent drivers in the field who want to enjoy a little driving pleasure on winding country roads in between.

The Alpina engineers chose the three-liter straight six-cylinder engine from BMW as the power source. By fine-tuning the two turbochargers and using mild hybrid technology from Munich, not only does it achieve a decent top performance, but also good acceleration at low revs. A maximum of 261 kW\/355 hp and 730 newtonmeters of torque is available. This power is transmitted via an eight-speed sports automatic transmission by ZF to the xDrive all-wheel drive system with rear-emphasized torque distribution and accelerates the sedan version from a standing start to 62 mph in 4.6 seconds. The station wagon version Touring needs two tenth of a second longer. The topspeed of 169.6 mph (sedan) and 167.8 mph (Touring) is stated in the data sheet. A sophisticated cooling system with transmission oil cooler, intercooler and outsourced coolant radiators ensures good heat exchange at the engine even in warm outside temperatures. On the chassis side, Alpina equips the D3 S with components from the B3.<\/p>\n\n\n
