Alpine has officially concluded production of the second-generation A110, ending an eight-year manufacturing run at its Dieppe factory as the French performance brand prepares to enter the electric sports car era.
The final vehicle, an A110 R 70 finished in the iconic Bleu Alpine paint, marks the end of production for a model that has accounted for 28,701 units since its return to the market in 2017.
Final A110 Marks End of an Era
Including both the original and modern generations, Alpine has now produced a total of 35,450 A110s at the Manufacture Alpine Dieppe Jean Rédélé since the model first entered production in 1969.
More than 58% of all A110s built have been finished in shades of blue, with Bleu Alpine remaining the brand’s most popular exterior colour.
The final car is based on the track-focused A110 R 70, featuring extensive carbon-fibre components, a 300-horsepower engine and a chassis developed for high-performance driving.
Its completion also coincides with Alpine’s 70th anniversary, celebrating the brand’s founding by Jean Rédélé in Dieppe on 22 June 1955.
Factory Prepares for Electric Future
With production of the second-generation model complete, Alpine is reconfiguring its Dieppe manufacturing facility for the arrival of the next-generation A110.
The upcoming sports car will be built on Alpine’s new Alpine Performance Platform (APP) and is expected to become the first fully electric sports car in its segment.
The transition requires new production equipment and updated manufacturing processes as the factory prepares to support Alpine’s broader electrification strategy.
Bleu Alpine Remains Brand Signature
The final vehicle’s Bleu Alpine finish pays tribute to one of the company’s most recognizable design elements.
According to Alpine, the colour accounts for approximately one-third of all A110 production and originated from a customer request in the early 1960s rather than from France’s traditional national racing colours.
Internally identified as colour code 331, Bleu Alpine has since become the brand’s signature paint finish and remains closely associated with the A110 nameplate as Alpine enters its next chapter with an all-electric successor.
