Alpine Working On A 2+2 Electric GT For 2028

Alpine is working on a series of EVs, including an all-electric successor to the A110 sports car and the production version of the A390 crossover concept. It’s also developing a new 2+2 tourer, rumored to be called A310 and set for a 2028 launch.

The A310 will sit between the A110 and the A390 in terms of size. It’ll be underpinned by the new Alpine Performance Platform, which will be also used by the next A110 EV, and will be positioned as a larger and more practical sports car, much like how the Porsche 911 offers increased practicality over the smaller 718 Cayman.

Like the A390, the new Alpine A310 will use three electric motors. This setup consists of a single motor at the front axle and two motors at the rear. Horsepower and torque details remain unconfirmed. A complex torque vectoring system is also expected to be used by the upcoming Alpine model, ensuring it handles and drives like a proper sports car.

While speaking with Autocar, Alpine marketing director Bruce Pillard noted that “adding two more seats in a car will make a huge difference,” when compared to the limited appeal and volume of the two-seat A110. He went on to describe the new model as a “true Alpine,” that will be “an icon of future sports cars.”

A390 influences

As spy photographers have yet to snap the new A310 in testing, limited details about its design are known. It could have a front fascia similar to the A390, including an LED light bar at the front, and it may also hit the market with wheels that illuminate when the torque vectoring system fires into life, promising to help excite onlookers given the vehicle’s lack of an exhilarating exhaust note.

Other electric Alpines are in the works, including larger models the brand hopes will allow it to crack into the US market.
