Renault Alpine A110 ride review

We take a passenger ride in the new Alpine A110 as the comeback of Renault's sports car brand nears completion

This is a big moment in the history of Alpine, the once iconic French sports car brand that went dormant for a few decades, but which is now on the cusp of making a spectacular return with the all-new mid-engined Alpine A110.

 

We drive the A110 for ourselves in late October/early November this year in the south of France and, after this brief experience from the other seat, I for one just can’t wait.
