Alpha Unveils Updated Ace Lineup, Features Revised Styling And New Dimensions

The Alpha Motor Corporation has quietly unveiled the updated Ace Coupe lineup.

Slated to be offered in Ace, Ace Performance Edition, and Super Ace guise, the model has seen a “significant increase in wheelbase to accommodate next-generation battery technology.”

The company didn’t go into many specifics, but noted the model now measures 168.5 inches (4,280 mm) long, 72.4 inches (1,840 mm) wide and 56.3 inches (1,430mm) tall. While the company only mentioned an increase in wheelbase, all dimensions have changed as the coupe is now 3.9 inches (100 mm) longer, 1.8 inches (46 mm) narrower, and 0.8 inches (20 mm) lower than before.

Those aren’t the only changes as the updated model features new headlights and a lightly revised grille. The interior also looks more production-ready as it sports a digital instrument cluster, a smaller infotainment system, air vents, and a basic center console.

Furthermore, Alpha has teamed up with AMP for an “all-encompassing ‘Energy Ecosystem’ comprising of eCloud, battery management system, and cutting-edge charging solutions.” The company said the partnership allows for bi-directional charging as well as an Energy Management Unit that is small, lightweight, and energy efficient – thus improving range. The company went on to say the coupe is envisioned to have a DC fast charging capability as well as an on-board charger with a capacity of up to 11 kW.

Despite these changes, the company lists identical performance specifications for both the old and new model. That should raise plenty of eyebrows, but Alpha claims the updated Ace should weigh 3,600 lbs (1,633 kg), have a range of 250+ miles (402+ km), and accelerate from 0-60 mph (0-96 km/h) in six seconds. However, the company noted all specifications are “projected estimations” and, as the unveiling of the updated Ace shows, they’re subject to change.

There’s still no word on when the models will arrive, but the company said they’ve been “working towards making its creations accessible through lean manufacturing, distribution partnerships, and collaborations with metaverse productions.” Of course, if they arrive is likely a more important question than when.
