26 Alpine A110 cars for the French police

Two months ago, it was announced that an agreement had been signed between Alpine and the French Ministry of the Interior, according to which the car company would deliver 26 Alpine A110 cars to the French police.

The Alpine A110 will be used by gendarmerie forces that maintain security in cities of up to 20,000 inhabitants, and the photos show what the first two delivered cars look like in the role of police cars.

Police cars are equipped with 18-inch wheels, instead of the standard 17-inch ones, which indicates that there is a slightly more powerful engine under the hood. In that case, the car will be powered by a boosted Renault Mégane RS turbocharged 1.8-liter four-cylinder engine with 300 hp (221 kW) and 251 lb-ft (340 Nm) of torque. This is significantly more power as the standard model has 252 hp (185 kW) and 236 lb-ft (320 Nm) of torque. It reaches 62 mph in 4.2 seconds with a top speed of 171 mph (275 kph). Power is transmitted to the rear wheels via a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission.

Refreshed Alpine A110

Alpine recently announced that in the next few years it will be among the companies whose cars will be powered only by electricity. Obviously, some models will still have to wait, as the company has unveiled a refreshed edition of the lightweight aluminum Alpine A110.

This sports two-seater will be offered in three versions: Alpine A110, A110 GT and A110 S. The base model is powered by a centrally located Renault 1.8-liter four-cylinder turbo petrol engine (Megane RS) with 252 hp (185 kW) and 236 lb-ft (320 Nm) of torque, which is enough to reach 62 mph in 4.5 seconds. Power is transmitted to the rear wheels via a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission.

The A110 S is top of the range, offering an even stiffer chassis and a sporty exhaust system. The weight, depending on the equipment, ranges from 1109 to 1140 kg. It is powered by a 1.8-liter engine with 300 hp (221 kW) and 251 lb-ft (340 Nm) of torque. That’s 8 hp and 20 Nm more than the previous model. It reaches 62 mph in 4.2 seconds with a top speed of 171 mph (275 kph).

The A110 GT is slightly heavier than the A110 S (20 kg). It is equipped with softer leather-covered seats, and the driver also has a parking assistance system. It is powered by a 1.8-liter four-cylinder engine with 300 hp (221 kW) and 251 lb-ft (340 Nm) of torque, and top speed is electronically limited to 155 mph (250 kph).
