The future models of Alpine will adopt the electromobility, as the brand "can not escape" from the advancement of technology, according to Oliver Murguet, EVP of sales and regions of Groupe Renault. Speaking at the British Auto Express, Murguet admitted that despite the focus of Alpine on light, back-mobile sports cars, he should apply the electromobility to the next generation of its models.
While Murguet did not give a timetable for the introduction of electrification, nor in what form, it is clear that Alpine intends to significantly develop its product portfolio in the future. So far, Alpine has only one model: A110. The electrification application (battery) will lend weight, but any such car will compensate for the extra load with improved power and torque.
However, Murguet did not seem to be particularly troubled, adding: "Look at Ferrari, even the last Ferrari is [hybrid] electric." Despite the A110 weighing only 1,103 kilos, Murguet suggested that stripping a car does not necessarily coincide with the brand's elements. "Alpine's customers ask for more sporty items, but more comfort," he said.
