You wouldn’t call the new Alpine A110 isn’t exactly
call luxurious, or even premium for that matter. In fact, various reviewers
have complained about cheap-feeling plastics throughout the French sport car’s
interior, which means there’s room for improvement. If that’s your mindset, then you
can check out what Carlex Design managed to do for this blue A110, creating a
considerably more stylish ambiance inside.
The Polish tuner infused the front seats, dashboard,
center console, pillars, headliner and door panels (mostly) with white leather
and added blue floor mats. As you can see, the blue upper inserts on the doors
were kept as they were, so as to further boost that white-blue contrast, which
is complemented by the stitching.
This is easily one of the most stylish A110
interiors we’ve ever seen, and while it’s might stray a bit from the “bare
essentials only” formula, we’re willing to bet plenty of customers out there
would prefer it this way. As far as we know, no performance mods were made, which is in line
with the company’s mindset. Still, the A110 is already huge fun to drive,
thanks to its well sorted-out chassis and 1.8-liter four-pot that produces 252
PS and 320 Nm of torque.
With the aid of a seven-speed dual-clutch gearbox
propelling the rear wheels, as well as a 1,100 kg curb weight, it
gets to 100 km/h in 4.5 seconds and maxes out at 250 km/h.
Thus, while a little more power would certainly be welcome, it’s not that the
A110 really needs it anyway.
