Specific enhancements to all four variants of the B7 include:



· 40 more horsepower (now rated 540) and 22 lb-ft more torque (up to 538 from 516 lb-ft) thanks to the addition of Valvetronic and an enhanced cooling system. Top speed is now a fierce 194mph (drag-limited, 193mph with xDrive). 0-60mph acceleration drops into the low-mid 4-second range for all variants (4.3-4.4 seconds).

· New ALPINA 8-speed sport automatic gearbox (known as “Switchtronic” thanks to its classic gearshift buttons mounted behind the hand-finished ALPINA steering wheel).

· New frontal aerodynamic treatment including updated ducting for coolers.

· Ceramic secondary controls are now standard.

· Updated Xenon Adaptive headlights with revised eyebrow lighting.

· LED front fog lights.

· Updated tail lights.

· Automatic Start-Stop.

· Active Protection.
