What is the 0-100 km/h acceleration time of the ALPINA B5?
1 Answers
According to official data, the ALPINA B5 accelerates from 0-100 km/h in 4.2 seconds. The factors affecting a vehicle's 0-100 km/h acceleration time are as follows: Torque: Torque, in layman's terms, represents how much force is available. The greater the torque, the greater the force pushing the vehicle, and naturally, the faster the acceleration. The BMW 5 Series has a maximum torque of 290 Nm and a 0-100 km/h acceleration time of 8.6 seconds; the ALPINA B5's 4.4-liter twin-turbocharged engine delivers 507 horsepower and a maximum torque of 700 Nm, achieving a 0-100 km/h acceleration time of 4.2 seconds. Transmission efficiency: The transmission is the medium for transferring power, inevitably involving power loss. The higher the transmission efficiency, the better the acceleration performance. Generally, the ranking of transmission efficiency is as follows: manual transmission > dry dual-clutch transmission > wet dual-clutch transmission > AT transmission > CVT transmission. The ALPINA B5 is equipped with an 8-speed automatic transmission (AT). Power-to-weight ratio: The relationship between horsepower and vehicle weight is called the power-to-weight ratio (unit is Hp/T). The greater the power-to-weight ratio, the faster the acceleration. The BMW 5 Series' power-to-weight ratio is...
