ALPINE parts online catalogue

Alpine cars, iconic French vehicles and winners of many international competitions, have made a triumphant return to the market after a long absence. Renault, the brand owner, presented the A110 model in 2017 on the Geneva International Motor Show. Alpine cars have a long history; in the early 1950s, Jean Rédélé started producing race cars on the platforms of popular Renault models, and in 1955 he established his own enterprise. Modern models embody the best features of the predecessors: compact dimensions, small weight, and high performance.

Technical characteristics of Alpine cars

Alpine cars were among the world’s first vehicles to use fibreglass bodywork, which allowed significant weight reduction. The A106 coupes and cabriolets were the first models with fibreglass bodies. In 1972, the A100 coupe became the first vehicle with a turbocharger in racing history.

The modern A110 car is also characterised by low weight: only 1080–1123 kg depending on the version and trim level. This was achieved thanks to an all-aluminium chassis and body. The A110S versions have hollow stabiliser bars. In addition, an all-carbon fibre top is available on request. Generally, each individual part of Alpine cars follows the weight-reduction principle. For instance, the weight of one leather-trimmed seat is only 13 kg, while Fuchs forged wheel discs, offered as an option, make the vehicle even 5 kg lighter.

The proprietary high-pressure turbocharged engine installed on the A110S coupe demonstrates excellent performance characteristics. It has an output of 292 hp and maximum torque of 320 N⋅m. The car accelerates to 100 km/h in just 4.4 seconds and has a top speed of 260 km/h.

The aesthetics of the vehicles is worth mentioning. The A110 sports car was named the most beautiful car at the 2017 Paris Motor Show. Its exterior is designed in the spirit of the classic A110 model, which was produced from 1962 to 1977. The car perfectly combines classic elements with modern details. For example, it has the same round headlights adorning the front of the vehicle as its predecessor had, but now they are LEDs.
