Share Tweet Share reddit Email

The Alpine A110 R Ultimate, with only 110 units available, represents the brand’s sportiest road-legal model. Boasting 345 bhp and 420 Nm of torque, it accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in just 3.8 seconds. The “Ultime” offers an unparalleled sporting experience alongside a bespoke customization program by Poltrona Frau®, making it the highest-performing A110 ever produced by Alpine.

Alpine is redefining performance limits again by introducing its all-new Alpine A110 R Ultimate limited edition at the Paris Motor Show. Alongside cutting-edge models like the A390_β show car—heralding the brand’s future fastback sports car—the Alpenglow HY6 and the A290, the A110 R Ultimate showcases the pinnacle of Alpine’s engineering prowess and the bespoke customization offered through its Atelier programme.

Alpine A110 R Ultimate Exceptional Examples

The A110 R Ultimate, a creation directly from the A110 R, takes the model to new heights. With a power boost to 345 bhp (192 hp/L) from its turbocharged engine, this track-ready machine reaches maximum power at 6,000 rpm, delivering an impressive 420 Nm of torque. That’s 80 Nm more than the A110 R Turini, providing exhilarating acceleration and performance.

This limited edition is highly exclusive, with only 110 units being produced. Its 3.2 kg/hp power-to-weight ratio enables it to sprint from 0 to 100 km/h in just 3.8 seconds, making it a true road-legal circuit car. Alpine has equipped it with Launch Control for seamless starts, a DW6 gearbox for enhanced torque capacity, and an Akrapovic® titanium exhaust system for an unmatched sound and driving experience.

The A110 R Ultimate is a product of Alpine Racing’s technical expertise, featuring a suite of high-performance upgrades. These include a modified turbo, four Ohlins® adjustable dampers, AP Racing bi-material brakes with high-performance pads, and 330 mm discs. Enhanced aerodynamics offer an additional 160 kg of downforce at maximum speed, improving handling during cornering and acceleration, making this limited edition even more agile and responsive on the track.

French Savoir-Faire and Ultra-Customization

The Alpine A110 R Ultimate is not just about raw power and precision. Its exclusivity extends into design and personalization. Through the Atelier Alpine programme, customers can select from 27 exterior colours and four Alcantara® interior hues (Grey, Red, Blue, and Orange) for a highly personalized driving environment. The Atelier Sur-Mesure option elevates this customization experience, offering even more exclusive choices, including nine additional Alcantara® colours and, for the first time, leather in 10 different shades.

Available for €330,000, the La Bleue configuration epitomizes the artistry and customization potential of Alpine’s Sur-Mesure programme.
