Alpine A110 has unveiled a new special edition of the sportscar. Named after Jean Rédélé, a racing driver and alpine founder, the 100th anniversary of his birth was honored with a limited production of 100 units.
The Alpine A110 GT is painted in J. Rédélé Montebello Gray, the favorite color of the Alpine founder. It combines black 18-inch Grand Prix alloy wheels with a high-gloss black roof and silver brake caliper. Inside the cabin, we find black leather upholstery with gray stitching. Highlighting the collectibility of the special edition there is a numbered plaque with the signature of Jean Riddle.

The model is based on the A110 GT, thus it comes with a mid-mounted turbocharged 1.8-liter four-cylinder engine that produces 296 hp (221 kW / 300 PS) and 340 Nm (251 lb-ft) of torque. The French sports car can accelerate from 0-100 km / h (0-62 mph) in 4.2 seconds and has a top speed of 250 km / h (155 mph).
The A110 GT J. Rédélé premiered at a historic gathering of more than 1,100 alpine owners in the French Depot. Celebrating the centenary of Jean Rédélé’s birth, Alpine organized a parade when a BWT Alpine F1 single-seater dipper drove for the first time on the road.
Alpine will begin taking orders for the A110 GT J. Rédélé from June 1, priced at € 83,000 ($ 89,320). The French brand promises to offer an all-electric range by 2026, including the A5 Hot Hatch, the GT X-Over Grand Tour and the A110’s EV successor.
