About the B3 S Limo

The 2010 Alpina B3 S Limo is a rear-drive turbocharged car of 1,637 kg with 394 bhp, which works out at 241 bhp per tonne. Rear drive and 241 bhp per tonne make the launch the hard part of the run: 60 ft takes 1.94 s. Against the 14,946 cars in the set it is the 1,104th quickest to 60 mph, inside the fastest tenth, and the 20th quickest of the 55 Alpinas here. Its 113.2 mph trap speed sits about where its 0-60 puts it, so it launches and pulls in roughly equal measure. The simulation is trimmed to 10 of 10 published acceleration figures for this car.

Questions

What is the Alpina B3 S Limo 0-60 time?
The Alpina B3 S Limo reaches 60 mph in 4.03 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 1,104th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Alpina B3 S Limo quarter mile time?
12.54 s at 113.2 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 8.11 s and clears the first 60 ft in 1.94 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Alpina B3 S Limo have?
394 bhp and 1,637 kg, which is 241 bhp per tonne. It is rear-drive, turbocharged, with 6 gears and a quoted top speed of 300 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Alpina B3 S Limo?
Closest here on pace: VW Golf R MK VIII facelift (3.98 s), Alpine A110 Mk II (3.96 s), Mercedes-AMG GLA45 2.0 4MATIC+ 387 (3.91 s). Each one can be raced against the Alpina B3 S Limo in the panel at the top of this page. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
Are these real measured times?
No. Every figure on this page is produced by a physics simulation, not by a stopwatch at a drag strip. The Alpina B3 S Limo is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it reproduces 10 of its 10 published acceleration figures. Conditions are the same for every car in the set: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.

Figures regenerated 2026-10-12. Every number on this page is computed by the simulator at build time, so the page and the app can never disagree.
