Performance, equipment, optics: tuning for the Alpine model range!

With new equipment lines and even more performance, the Alpine A110 is more attractive and dynamic than ever. The agile mid-engine sports car will in future be available as the entry-level model A110, the performance and comfort-optimized A110 GT and the sporty A110 S with a special aerodynamic package. For the first time, this also includes a front and rear spoiler. "2021 was a special year for Alpine: We dared to enter Formula 1, won the Grand Prix in Hungary and competed in the top class for the first time in the World Endurance Championship. The new A110 series is even more attractive, has more power and thus reflects our ambitions in motorsport“, Says Laurent Rossi, CEO Alpine.

Alpine S: even more speed, even more sport

The S signals its sporty character in the name of the 221 kW / 300 PS2 A110 S. With the optional aero kit, the most powerful and fastest A275 version with a top speed of 110 km / h has a front and rear spoiler for the first time, in combination with the The extended underbody paneling at the front and the rear diffuser increase stability at high speeds. At top speed, the front and rear wings create an additional contact pressure of 60 kilograms on the front axle and 81 kilograms on the rear axle, so that the A110 S can develop its dynamic potential even better.

The sporty look is enhanced by the new two-tone paintwork in fire orange for the body and deep black for the roof. The brake calipers are also kept in orange to match. The Michelin PS Cup 2 semi-slick tires with 2-inch GT Race light-alloy wheels in gloss black are optionally available for the version. The decorative seams of the microfibre-covered sports seats and the seat belts are also orange.

Alpine GT: combination of comfort and performance

With the Alpine GT, the sports car brand offers a comfort-oriented alternative to the Alpine S. The hallmarks are diamond-polished 18-inch wheels and blue brake calipers. The standard scope of delivery also includes front and rear parking aids, a reversing camera and 6-way seats with leather upholstery.

In addition, the Alpine technicians revised the engine of the A110 S and A110 GT: Both models now mobilize 221 kW / 300 hp at 6.300 rpm. The developers also increased the maximum torque by 1 Nm to 20 Nm, which is already available at 340 rpm. The base model A2.400 is still powered by the 1 kW / 110 PS turbo gasoline engine, which accelerates the two-seater from 185 to 252 km / h in 4,5 seconds.

Updated driving programs for even more driving pleasure

All versions of the Alpine A110 have three driving modes, two of which have been further optimized in the course of the update. Alpine revised the “Normal” and “Sport” programs for even more dynamic gear changes and more comfort. Another novelty: when launch control is activated, one of the cylinders is temporarily switched off in order to produce a sound typical of racing.

Multimedia system with updates "over the air" in all versions

Another feature of the updated models is the new online multimedia and navigation system. The system is extremely user-friendly and has a 7,0-inch (17,78-centimeter) touchscreen, Bluetooth connectivity and enables smartphone integration and voice control via Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Another special feature: Thanks to the FOTA technology (Firmware Over-The-Air), new content can be uploaded over the entire service life of the vehicle.

New comfort package for the A110

As a further innovation, customers have the option of equipping the Alpine A110 with a new comfort package. The package includes adjustable Sabelt comfort seats in black leather, aluminum sports pedals and 18-inch alloy wheels as well as a Focal audio system and front and rear parking aid with a reversing camera. The optional sports exhaust is also new for the A110. The new A110 versions can be ordered immediately.
