Alpina EV Portfolio

Alpina is an EV brand owned by BMW Group and made in Germany. This model portfolio showcases the shift toward zero-emission mobility.

Vehicles are organized by model family. A model family is an OEM-defined product program sharing a common platform, architecture, and market positioning, from which multiple body styles, variants, and trims are derived.

Alpina EV Model Families

List of Alpina EV model families - only all-electric (BEV) models are listed:

Alpina EV Technology

Platform = level of vehicle platform maturity or advancement, and its dominant system voltage.
Shared = ICE-derived | Dedicated = EV-native platform | SDV-Native = future-proof

E/E Architecture: degree of integration and maturity of the vehicle’s electronic/electric control systems (from Baseline legacy wiring to Advanced domain/zonal designs).
Baseline = Distributed ECUs | Modern = Domain-based | SDV-Native = Zonal-based with central compute

OTA Capability = scope of Over-The-Air updates supported — from Baseline basic infotainment to Advanced control and systems firmware.
Baseline = Infotainment/maps | Limited = Infotainment+ | Partial = Multiple systems | Advanced = Most systems | Full = Full-vehicle updateable

Battery Suppliers = primary traction battery suppliers across the model lineup.

Power Inverter Tech = power electronics technology used (silicon carbide SiC vs silicon), which affects efficiency and thermal performance.
IGBT = Conventional | SiC = High-efficiency | GaN = Next-generation, pilots

About Alpina

Alpina is a German performance automobile manufacturer and recognized vehicle partner of BMW, known for crafting high performance, luxury oriented versions of BMW models. Founded in 1965 by Burkard Bovensiepen and headquartered in Buchloe, Germany, Alpina has earned a reputation for precision engineering, refined design, and attention to detail. Each vehicle is assembled with unique components and hand finished craftsmanship that distinguishes it from standard BMW models.

Now integrated into the BMW Group portfolio, Alpina continues to operate as an independent engineering and design entity focusing on performance tuning, drivetrain calibration, and interior refinement. While historically centered on combustion and mild hybrid drivetrains, the company is preparing for an electrified future alongside BMW's broader transition to battery electric mobility. The goal is to translate Alpina's hallmark smooth power delivery, long distance comfort, and discreet luxury into the new generation of electric architectures.

Alpina's expertise extends beyond performance tuning to include aerodynamic optimization, suspension development, and bespoke interior craftsmanship. Vehicles typically feature enhanced torque output, adaptive suspension systems, and custom leather trim, combining comfort and precision in equal measure. The brand's approach emphasizes understated performance and everyday usability over extreme sport characteristics.

As BMW expands its electric lineup through the i4, i5, i7, and iX series, future Alpina models are expected to incorporate these EV platforms with exclusive calibration, design elements, and limited production runs. This evolution will allow Alpina to preserve its distinctive identity within the electric era, continuing its tradition of delivering high performance automobiles with German craftsmanship and long distance refinement.
