Unlike its sibling, the A110 GT, the S version was made for those who asked for more, and Alpine was eager to provide them a provocative sports car.

ALPINE A110S

Alpine created a track-focused version for its nimble A110 following a simple yet effective recipe and created a car that could tackle many supercars on a tight track.

Alpine is part of the Renault carmaker, but it is focused only on performance cars. But it is more than what M is for BMW or SRT for Dodge. It made completely different cars than the rest of its owner's lineup.

Renault dug deep into its past, extracted the Alpine badge, and placed it on an entirely new car designed to beat Porsche Cayman.

The second generation of the Alpine was introduced in 1961 and it was mainly based on the existing Renault Gordini. It was introduced as a coupe (Berlinette) and after that as a convertible.
