16 Jul 2024|156 views
The Alpine A110 Pikes Peak racer has proven its mettle, finishing the Goodwood Festival of Speed’s hill climb in a time that scored it a fourth-place finish in the contested Timed Shootout.
At the helm of the car was Raphael Astier, who drove the car to third place overall at Pikes Peak in 2023. This year, the aerodynamically optimised A110 Pikes Peak powered up Goodwood's hill in only 48.61 seconds.
Alpine attributes the cars pace to its 950kg weight and near 500bhp engine, alongside its balance and tractability. These factors allowed the car to qualify 6th for the Timed Shootout on Saturday with slightly quicker time of 48.1 seconds. Of the total of 45 entrants, the top 30 fastest went through to battle it out on Super Sunday in the Timed Shootout - the finale of the Goodwood Festival of Speed.
While the A110 Pikes Peak was fastest of the brand's cars up the hill, it shared the limelight with the U.K. dynamic debut of the A290 - Alpine's 100% electric urban sports car. Fresh from its world premiere at the 24 Hours of Le Mans, the striking 220bhp hot hatch showed off its sporting credentials as part of the exciting 'First Glance' feature.
Visitors to the brand's stand were also able to get up close to the stunning Alpenglow concept, which fuses a lightweight carbon body with a vision for high-performance hydrogen-powered motoring, while joining the A290 in the 'First Glance' section of the festival were the 1975 A110 Group 4 Tour de Corse rally car and limited edition A110 R Le Mans. Visitors to the festival were also provided with an exclusive preview of the forthcoming Alpine A110 Atelier personalisation programme.
