Alpine has unveiled a new special edition of the A110 sportscar. This one is named after racing driver and Alpine founder Jean Rédélé, honoring the 100 years from his birth with a limited production of 100 units. The Alpine A110 GT J. Rédélé is painted in Montebello Grey, which was the favourite color of Alpine’s founder. It is combined with a high-gloss black roof and black-painted 18-inch Grand Prix alloy wheels with silver brake calipers. Inside the cabin, we find black leather upholstery with grey stitching. Highlighting the collectability of the special edition there is a numbered plaque with the signature of Jean Rédélé.
The model is based on the A110 GT, thus it
comes with a mid-mounted turbocharged 1.8-liter four-cylinder engine producing
296 hp and 340 Nm of torque. The French sports
car can accelerate from 0-100 km/h in 4.2 seconds and has a top
speed of 250 km/h.
The A110 GT J. Rédélé premiered at a historic
gathering of more than 1,100 Alpine owners in Dieppe, France. Celebrating the
centenary of Jean Rédélé’s birth, Alpine organized a parade, while a BWT Alpine
F1 single-seater was driven on the roads of Dieppe for the first time.
Alpine will start taking orders for the
A110 GT J. Rédélé on June 1, with a price of € 83,000 (US$ 89,320). The French
brand has pledged to offer an all-electric range by 2026, including the A5 hot
hatch, the GT X-Over grand tourer, and the EV successor of the A110.
