Following teasing the car a few weeks ago, the French automobile manufacturer, Alpine, has now fully unveiled its all-electric hot hatchback. Known as the A290_β, this car is said to be "opening a new chapter in Alpine's enthralling history" and intends to be a car that proves that electric vehicles are just as suited for motorsports as they are for the road.
"The A290_β is the first stage in Alpine's new era, the first step towards the all-electric Dream Garage in 2024," said Alpine's CEO Laurent Rossi. "This urban show car has rewritten the playbook for electric hot hatches. The A290_β is tapping into its rich legacy and ushering Alpine into the future, with an everyday experience of the motor sports spirit that has inspired the brand since its inception."
Aside from knowing that the car will officially launch next year, Alpine hasn't dished out on the details behind this vehicle yet, meaning we're still waiting to hear about its performance and the price point that Alpine will be retailing it at.
