2013 Alpina D5 Sedan (F10 LCI, Facelift 2013) Dimensions, Size & Specs

The curb weight of the Alpina D5 Sedan (F10 LCI, Facelift 2013) is 1865 kg (4,111 lbs), while its maximum permissible weight is 2455 kg (5,411 lbs). This relatively heavy curb weight is partly due to its reinforced chassis, luxury equipment, and performance enhancements typical of Alpina models.

The trunk space of this Alpina D5 Sedan generation offers 520 liters (approximately 18.3 cubic feet) of luggage capacity. This provides ample space for everyday needs, travel suitcases, or groceries, maintaining its practicality despite the car's sporty performance character.

This Alpina D5 comes equipped with 20-inch wheels measuring 8.5J x 20 at the front and 9.5J x 20 at the rear. The tire sizes are 255/35 ZR20 up front and 285/30 ZR20 on the rear axle, combining to provide excellent grip and stability, enhancing driving dynamics and ride comfort.

A standard garage typically measures about 2.4–2.7 meters (7.9–8.9 feet) in width and around 5 to 6 meters (16.4–19.7 feet) in length. At 4913 mm (4.913 meters or 16.1 feet) long and 2102 mm (2.1 meters or 6.9 feet) wide with mirrors open, the Alpina D5 Sedan fits comfortably inside most standard garages. However, care should be taken when opening doors or mirrors to avoid scratches or damage in especially narrow garages.

Compared to the pre-facelift F10 Alpina D5 model, the facelifted 2013-2016 version largely retained the same overall exterior dimensions with minor tweaks to styling and possibly slight weight adjustments due to updates in equipment and materials. The length of 4913 mm has been consistent, ensuring that interior space remained unchanged while enhancing refinement and performance.

In the executive sedan segment, the Alpina D5 Sedan competes with models such as the Audi A6, Mercedes-Benz E-Class, and Jaguar XF. Its length of 4913 mm (193.3 inches) is generally on par or slightly longer than these competitors, providing a roomy interior and substantial trunk space (520 liters). Its width with mirrors open (2102 mm or 82.7 inches) is somewhat wider than average, which contributes to a stable stance and sporty road presence.

The Alpina D5 Sedan has a height of 1469 mm (57.8 inches). While exact ground clearance figures are not specified, the car typically features a suspension setup tailored for sporty handling and everyday comfort, balancing a relatively low ride height for superior aerodynamics and stability without compromising drivability on common road surfaces.

The 20-inch wheels paired with wide performance tires (255/35 ZR20 front, 285/30 ZR20 rear) significantly enhance the Alpina D5’s grip, cornering ability, and overall dynamic precision. The larger rim sizes contribute to a firmer ride, emphasizing sporty handling while maintaining enough comfort for daily driving. These wheels also enhance braking performance and the car’s aggressive aesthetic appeal.

Produced from 2013 to 2016, the Alpina D5 Sedan (F10 LCI facelift) is a high-performance diesel-powered executive sedan based on the BMW 5 Series facelift (F10). It blends luxury, sportiness, and efficiency, with bespoke Alpina tuning including upgraded suspension, unique styling details, and an enhanced diesel engine offering strong torque and acceleration. The vehicle balances comfort, spaciousness with a 520-liter trunk, and refined driving dynamics, making it a distinctive choice in its segment.
