A handful of hours ago we have known what the Alpine Alpenglow is like. We have already told you that it is a sports car that combines futuristic elements such as its body with transparent plastic materials and its ICE engine powered by hydrogen. Also, at least for now, Renault Group will not take such a model to the streets, although their use will be reserved for the competition. But behind all this "pomp and fanfare" there is a trick.
Yes, and few people have realized that Alpine has slipped it into us in the style of "subliminal advertising". You do not believe it? Well yes and the answer to the trick is in the official press material they published to show the Alpenglow and its technology. Have you seen the entire gallery of images and the video that we leave you in the post? If not, don't worry, just check the photo on these lines, especially the part of the oval and red circle.
Behind the Alpenglow concept lies Alpine's future electric range...
If we focus on the oval, from left to right, we can see the A110 replacement, the R5 Alpine and the GT X-Over crossover. If you do a little memory you have to remember what the roadmap for alpine. In the year 2024 it is expected that its first electric model a spicy version of the new Renault 5. And behind him, his plans include a totally new model that will make it a premium brand in its own right.
In January of this year we learned that the Dieppe factory had an assured future because after the A110 it will manufacture the future SUV GT X-Over… And precisely in the image that we have mentioned are the spicy Renault 5 and the GT X-Over SUV. In addition there is a third model, the one that is more to the left, which is the direct successor of the A110 that is already taking shape thanks to the technological collaboration between Renault and the English firm Lotus.
However if we go back to the SUV GT X-Over we can create a parallel with the Alpenglow. If you look closely at this model (with internal development code DZ110) it sports a front light signature that is inspired by this sports car. It has two very thin LED headlights that are joined in the center by a light strip.. In addition, the ends are blurred down on both sides of the grill with a format that we could classify as fangs?
With everything, this veiled advance of Alpine's plans gives impetus to the recovery plan of Renault Group. We will have to be very attentive to their future movements, because 2024 and 2025 are just around the corner and these three models will not be able to hide for much longer...
