•Alpine A110 named Coupé of the Year in Auto Express New Car Awards 2021
•Third consecutive year that the Alpine A110 has claimed the prestigious title
•Alpine A110 available from £49,005 OTR
The Alpine A110 has retained its title of Coupé of the Year in the prestigious Auto Express New Car Awards 2021, the win marking the third consecutive year that the A110 has been bestowed the honour.
Available from £49,005 OTR, the award reaffirms that, even in the face of more expensive competition, the Alpine A110 continues to offer a compelling blend of performance and practicality that is unrivalled.
Commenting on the A110's continued success, Steve Fowler, Editor-in-chief, Auto Express, said: 'It's another win for the Alpine A110 in our Coupé category. As before, it's not just because it's one of the most involving driver's cars you can buy, but it also proves that a unique sports car doesn't have to be unattainably expensive. It's as much at home trundling around town or heading down a mountain pass. It's a stunning car.'
Vincent Tourette, Managing Director, Renault Group UK, was delighted that the Alpine A110 was once again unbeaten in the Auto Express New Car Awards: 'We are exceptionally pleased that such a well-regarded voice in our industry continues to shower praise upon the class-leading Alpine A110. This latest accolade – awarded for an incredible third consecutive year – confirms the A110's place as the epitome of thoroughbred performance, while also offering enthusiasts the convenience of well-mannered driving dynamics that enable everyday usability.'
The annual Auto Express New Car Awards honour the very best vehicles that today's car buyers can choose from, with this year's online event spanning 30 categories to fully cover all the automotive stars in the increasingly diverse modern car market.

The Alpine A110 combines a sophisticated suspension set-up with a lightweight aluminium structure, while a turbocharged four-cylinder engine mounted directly behind the passenger compartment delivers impressive performance while retaining the car's natural poise.
In the A110 S, power is increased from 252PS to 292PS with torque of 320Nm available from just 2,000rpm. As a result, the A110 S can sprint from 0-62mph in just 4.4 seconds, with a seamless stream of acceleration delivered via the rear wheels thanks to its responsive seven-speed dual-clutch transmission.
The Alpine A110 is available in four distinct models – A110 Pure, A110 Légende, A110 S, and A110 Légende GT. The Pure encapsulates the driver-focused spirit of the original Berlinette, whilst the A110 Légende has more of a touring character with sophisticated interior materials and six-way adjustable comfort seats. The A110 S delivers more power with chassis settings optimised for an even more intense Alpine driving experience, while the range-topping A110 Légende GT features bespoke styling elements for the interior and exterior and brings new levels of luxury to the Alpine range.
