BMW’s Vision BMW Alpina concept debuted in May at the Villa d’Este concours event in preparation to launch the Alpina brand as an official BMW division. Alpina has been around since 1965, starting out as an independent tuning company for BMW cars, then later upping the luxury levels. In January, BMW finished acquiring the Alpina brand and is now preparing for BMW Alpina vehicles to be produced fully in-house by BMW.
