French sportscar builder, Alpine, has confirmed its electric ambitions for the future. By 2030, the brand will have launched seven fully electric cars, including a future A110 coupé, a roadster, and a new A310 4-seat coupé, to sit on a new dedicated platform. In Formula 1, Alpine Racing Ltd. gets a €200 million investment to boost the team’s ambition in F1.

Alpine is gearing up for a bright future – an electric future at that. After plans to develop an electric sportscar with Lotus went south, the French sports car is going at it alone with the ambition to have a seven-model line-up of fully electric cars by 2030. That’s not all for 2030, as the Dieppe manufacturer aims to reach €8 billion in revenue and carbon neutrality by then.

Seven electric cars

It’s not the first time we’re hearing about Alpine going electric. Since Renault launched its ‘Renaulution‘ plan in January 2021, the sportscar subsidiary was given the aim to focus on electric cars. It even presented a ‘dream garage‘, made of an SUV, a hot-hatch, and a sports car. Today, Alpine is further expanding this garage with additional models.

It’ll all start with the A290 in 2024. It’s an urban electric hot-hatch based on the future Renault 5, of which we already know the shape thanks to the A290 β concept. After that, a C-segment crossover should follow in 2025. The all-new A110 sportscar will arrive one year later.

New EV platform

The future A110 will sit on a new, fully electric, dedicated platform called APP (Alpine Performance Platform). Modular, those underpinnings can vary in length and width as needed, and they will also serve as the base for a new Alpine A310, a 4-seat sports coupé. Additionally, the Dieppe manufacturer announced two further models for the D and E segments without specific launch dates.

“This comprehensive range of sports cars will cement our market share in our key markets in Europe and Japan. It will turbocharge our international growth, particularly in the US and Asia, where our new models will be on sale from 2027,” announces Laurent Rossi, CEO of Alpine.

€200 million for Formula 1

Alpine Racing Ltd., the branch of the French sportscar maker operating the F1 team, is also growing toward a bright future. It has announced a €200 million investment from the ‘Investor Group’ (Otro Capital, RedBird Capital Partners, and Maximum Effort Investments). This transaction now values the company at $900 million.

“Maximum Effort Investments focuses on unlocking value through the power of storytelling, and we believe there is tremendous untapped potential in Alpine Racing. We are eager to help shine a light on this incredible team,” explains Co-Founder James Toney.
