Standard garages typically measure around 2.4 meters (8 feet) wide by 5.5 meters (18 feet) deep, which accommodates this car comfortably, though care should be taken with garage door widths and aisle space.

Compared to its predecessor, the Alpina D5 Touring (G30/G31 previous generation), this model maintains similar overall dimensions, though the G31 is slightly longer and wider, enhancing interior space and cargo volume.

These subtle size upgrades helped improve comfort and utility without sacrificing maneuverability.

The Alpina D5 Touring (G31) is competitive in size with other premium midsize station wagons such as the Audi RS4 Avant, Mercedes-AMG E 43 Estate, and Volvo V90 T6 AWD.

Despite the higher weight, the car remains agile and performance-oriented, consistent with Alpina’s tuning philosophy.
