Dieppe factory is preparing for the electric third-generation Alpine A110

By ending the A110 combustion engine with a 300 hp carbon special engine, Alpine is making the transition from its sports car heritage to the electric future. Alpine has ended production of the second generation A110 at its Dieppe factory, and the last car, the A110 R 70 at Bleu Alpine, marks the close of a series of 28,701 units since the model’s relaunch in 2017. Total A110 production in Dieppe since 1969 currently stands at 35,450 vehicles, with more than 58% of them delivered in blue. Officially called Manufacture Alpine Dieppe Jean Rédélé, the Dieppe plant is now preparing for the third generation A110, which will be built on the new Alpine Performance Platform (APP). The new model aims to be the first fully electric sports car in its class, with the factory investing in new tooling and industrial processes to accommodate the transition. The latest second-generation car is also the most concentrated expression of the A110 R series; It has extensive carbon fiber, a 300 hp engine and a chassis suitable for circuit use. Its production coincides with the 70th anniversary of Alpine, which founded Jean Rédélé in Dieppe on 22 June 1955. The Bleu Alpine livery of the A110, which accounts for 33% of all cars produced, did not originate from national racing colors but from a customer order placed in the early 1960s. The shade has become a signature of the brand and is referred to as color code 331 internally.
