Some can hardly wait: the Alpine is coming back, first in a "PremiereEdition". AutoSprint.CH reported: (https://www.autosprint.ch/auto/neue-modelle/revival-fuer-alpine).
Already a legend
With its uncompromising lightweight construction, powerful four-cylinder engine and compact dimensions, the new edition of the Berlinette, which was successful in its day, carries the spirit of the eponymous classic from the 1960s and 70s into the present.
Multiple winner
The design of the current model also quotes the multiple rally winner. The mid-engine two-seater accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in just 4.5 seconds and enables a top speed of 250 km/h (factory figures). Dynamic performance is provided by a newly developed 1.8-liter turbo gasoline engine with 185 kW/252 hp.
Lightweight
The curb weight of just 1080 kilograms is a major contributor to this performance. The A110 will initially be available in the "Première Edition" at the beginning of 2018 at a price of 62,000 Swiss francs. The special series, limited to 1955 units, was fully reserved after just five days in December 2016.
