Alpine A110 Rally revealed for a 2WD championship

Alpine A110 is one of the most underrated cars and is not as well-known in America as it should be, and this statement goes for both the traditional rear-engined car from the 1960s and the current restoration with its motor a bit further forward. However, the old generation Apline was a beloved sports car that achieved significant success in stage rally, including the superiority of declaring the first authentic World Rally Championship title in 1973.

Currently, Alpine is exploring some of that earlier fame with its latest A110 Rally, particularly manufactured to fight on stages across the globe, excluding the United States. 

In addition to that, the latest Alpine in not just providing a graphics package and a roll cage in its gorgeous A110S variant. The rally-spec car is sketched and developed by Signatech and comes equipped with a lighter chassis taken from the GT4 and Cup racing variants. Considering the race track for this beast can be anything from narrow forest trails to the dusty tarmac, it features a conventional three-way hydraulic rally suspension and enhanced Brembo brakes. Even though the power in the A110 Rally still develops from the conventional turbocharged 1.8 L four-cylinder engine, it’s tweaked to produce a maximum power of more than 300 horsepower.

The transmission duties will be handled by a six-speed sequential gearbox, but if you have any hope to see this car achieving the overall WRC championship, then it might not be the case. Even if the car sounds fantastic, it still drives on a rear-wheel-drive system, and there are no plans to change that. However, it now comes with a new limited-slip differential which aids the A110 in delivering its power to the ground after tackling the hard corners.
