Alpine A290 test drives
The sport hot hatch for the electric age
Alpine ushers in a new era with the launch of the A290—the era of the electric sports car in Alpine mode, respecting the brand's three pillars: an exhilarating driving experience, lightweight, as well as French savoir-faire. The A290 is a new entry point into the Alpine world and inaugurates Alpine's 100% electric Dream Garage where it will soon be joined by the Sport Fastback A390 and the new A110.
The A290 incorporates all the sensations so appreciated behind the wheel of the A110 into an urban sportscar. Developed in perfect coherence with Alpine's DNA, the A290 is compact and agile, offering easy-to-use high performance while guaranteeing comfortable everyday use. Its Ampere-derived electric platform and the recharging, services developped by Mobilize Power. Solutions, such as two-way V2G recharge make it part of a complete electrical ecosystem offering the best possible experience.
With its cutting-edge design, first-class technical features, ultra-complete connectivity and numerous possibilities for personalising driving, the Alpine A290 is a true Alpine. But a new generation Alpine designed to embrace the electric era. It has been designed to appeal to a new range of male and female customers, some of whom will be performance-oriented, while others will be attracted by the style. The A290 is assembled at the Manufacture in Douai, within ElectriCity. The electric motor is also built in France at Cléon. The battery will be produced in France beginning in the summer of 2025.
"Our Alpine A290 is the first model of a new electric generation, inaugurating our Dream Garage in the finest possible way. This urban sportscar marks the introduction of Alpine to a broader public and resurrects a forgotten category, the hot hatch, so much loved for the driving pleasure it delivers."
Philippe Krief, CEO Alpine
