Both
BMW ALPINA XD3 and the BMW ALPINA XD4 accelerate from 0-100 km/h for 4.6
seconds and the maximum speed is respectively 267 km/h and 268 km/h and now
these models are fastest-in-segment.
The
two-stage turbocharging system with four turbocharges is responsible for the
maximum performance of the BMW ALPINA XD3 and the BMW ALPINA XD4. The turbocharging system has two low-pressure
stages operating in parallel and two small high-pressure stages with variable
geometry which also operate in parallel. Thus the power delivery is created to
be smooth, effortless and unusually dynamic over the entire rpm range for a
diesel engine.
