Since 2012, Renault has taken over to accelerate the development of its Alpine brand, which was revived thanks to Carlos Ghosn’s promises to revive the brand created in 1955 by Jean Redele. They took life in 2017, with the appearance of the new A110, a modern reinterpretation of the 60s berlinetta Since the arrival of Lucas di Meo and the presentation of the Renaulution plan two years ago, the Alpine brand has grown in importance within the Renault group.

Ultimately, he must embody sportsmanship and become the premium unit of the group. As proof of this orientation, In Formula 1, Renault F1 Team replaced Alpine. Diamond sports models will now be handled by the Renault Sport division. They will wear an Alpine badge. The transition to electrification is necessary for the future of the brand. So, we already know that the next A110 will be 100% electric. The program also includes an electric SUV, as well as a sports version of the next electric Renault 5.

Alpine inspires more than one

Berlinetta fans can rest assured, the current thermal is not going to stop immediately ! Alpine regularly keeps it on top with a few limited edition or sporty variants. We recently discovered the A110 R, which develops 300 horsepower and is as light as possible! Today, the Norman athlete is talking about herself again through a very original art project: A110 Metamorphosis.. This is an art car based on the serial A110. As their name might suggest, Art cars these are cars developed on the basis of a production model to give it a more artistic and fantastical side. Sometimes it’s just a special livery, inside as well as outside. But it can be more difficult transformations. Which profoundly change the body to give it a different look, even a different silhouette than the original. Watch instead…

Dismantled and updated box

This unique creation is the work of the Belgian sculptor Arne Quinze. It will be exhibited at Art Paris, a major exhibition dedicated to contemporary art that is taking place from March 30 to April 2 in the capital’s ephemeral Grand Palais. Visually, this A110 has been stripped of most of its tricks. There are no more windows, wheels and headlights. Even the roof or door handles ! This example looks like an A110 body that was just stamped in Dieppe and not yet assembled.

She should represent the union that exists between the car and speed. Between the driver and his car, between a person and a car. Like an explosion that would occur at its edge, it is filled with colorful structures of original shape. Decorations similar to cylinder head gaskets. Or strange plastic packaging. It’s your turn to judge. See you at the weekend in the heart of the capital if you wish to have the privilege of approaching this curiosity!
