When it comes to Sedan it might be easy to miss Alpleon's Berliner. But don't worry! We the full scoop on this Sedan. We'll let you know where it stands between the Republique and the 772. So continue reading to find out more about the Alpleon Berliner.

The first stop for the Alpleon Berliner was the track. I won't lie. I was scared. This Sedan is built for performance. Alpleon cut no corners when designing this vehicle for speed. The vomit stains on the carpet prove that the 126 hp @ 4369RPMs 4778 cc I3 engine roars this rocket to a top speed of 107 mph in an impressive 21.279s 0 to 60 mph. The engine puts out 122 lb-ft of torque making it able to tow 22 lbs which is average for this class. I'm guilty wanting to steal this one for my self. The handling characteristics of the Alpleon Berliner is borderline acceptable for a Sedan. We wouldn't buy it for a tracking or narrow city streets. But for most people, who care little for driving, it is fine.

While certainly does not have the best features or materials. The Alpleon Berliner does provide the bare necessities required in a vehicle of this type. No more and no less. As well as it should. If you wanted to spend that extra bit you would of bought the better vehicle. Was Alpleon wise in this respect? Maybe, but we do think they should of offered at least a little more bang for the buck so to speak.

Amazingly spacey the Alpleon Berliner can bost 34 cu-ft interior and cargo space. This vehicle is massive compared to most. It's one of our top choices when it comes to practicality.

Build quality of the Berliner is about what you would expect from Alpleon. We only noticed a few minor flaws in paneling gaps. There was also one or two vibration sounds in the interior. None of these flaws would be a deal breaker

The Alpleon Berliner is not exactly dependable. It won't last a million miles, but it will get you down the road. Do expect a few issues over the lifetime of the vehicle. But most are fixable.

At this point in testing we would normally take the Alpleon Berliner out on the roads. However our test driver barely made it out of the parking lot before running out of fuel. The Berliner's ghastly 16.2 mpg means you'll need to take a few jerry cans, scratch that, a few barrels of fuel just to make it to the grocery store.

Safety is another important topic on the minds of many. The Alpleon Berliner maintains the average amount of safety features for this type of vehicle. While not overly impressive, it should be enough to keep you alive in most cases. Don't expect miracles however.

Some may be able to point to other Sedan and say this is better. This is prettier. This is the best Sedan. But they would be wrong. Because beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Behold the Alpleon Berliner it may not be everything for everyone. But it is certainly something for someone.
