Alpine’s next A110 will be built on a new Alpine Performance Platform (APP).
This is an EV platform Alpine said can support future coupe, spider and 2+2 models while keeping the shape and responses people expect from a sports car.
It said APP uses an aluminium structure with bonded and riveted construction, 800V battery tech, a new rear dual-motor e-axle, torque vectoring and a central control system that manages the car’s key functions.
The hardware sounds promising enough. Whether Alpine can make an electric sports car feel light on its feet and engaging enough to carry the A110 name without excuses is another matter.
The company is also eager to show this is not just a one-car story. Alpine sold 10,970 vehicles in 2025, up 139.2% from a year earlier, and crossed 10,000 registrations for the first time. Even so, the big growth figure needs some context. The rise came off a small base, and the A290 accounted for most of it with 8,198 registrations.
Retail expansion is part of the push too. Alpine said it now has 169 sales points in 25 countries and wants to get past 200 by the end of 2026. After opening Atelier Alpine sites in Barcelona and Paris, it plans to add Milan and London this year. It is also adding more places built around the brand itself, including La Piste Bleue, which opened in June 2024.
Alpine wants to become something bigger than a niche brand built around one well-liked petrol sports car.
APP is supposed to make that possible.
