Alpine Claims Electric Successor To The A110 Will Mop Up The Porsche 718 Cayman

Alpine claims the electric successor to the A110 will be faster than a petrol-powered Porsche 718 Cayman around the Nürburgring race track – no mean feat given an EV drivetrain’s weight penalty versus a combustion car’s. 

 

The French sports car maker revealed its Nürburgring simulations at Renault Group’s strategy day, claiming its zero emissions coupe will have the beating of petrol-powered rivals – helped by its weight-saving aluminium architecture and clever torque management of its high-performance motors.
