Legendary French sports car marque Alpine is back, and while its new A110 sports coupé has been doing the motor show circuit for some time now, the production car won’t hit dealers until 2018. The lines are inspired by the classic A110 of the seventies, but under the skin it uses Renault’s latest 1.8-litre turbocharged engine.
This is the same unit found in the new Megane RS, albeit with less power. The 249bhp unit should offer plenty of poke, however, as the lightweight Alpine is geared towards nimble handling rather than outright performance.
