Don't find a lot about it. Most info is coming from Alpina that dedicates some paragraphs to it. What I read:

First 3rd generation version of the 8HP.
Aluminium transmission oil sump that optimizes cooling.
Can handle more torque (e.g. B5/7 have 800Nm).
Revised mechatronics (solenoids) for brisker and faster shifts.
