"Like I said, we want to work with the big SUVs," Bovensiepen noted. "It's too early to tell, but I think [X7] would be great for the U.S."
BMW hasn't confirmed an additional Alpina model for the States, but we've already seen the company testing a
diesel-powered X7 on the 'Ring, and a BMW spokesperson told us the company is "exploring" the option. While an Alpina-engineered
8 Series Gran Coupe is rumored, we fully expect the X7 (read: XB7) to be the next Alpina model offered in the U.S., and potentially with up to 600 hp on tap.
