The final name has not yet been established, but Alpine has registered the AS1 and AS110 monikers.
The French well-founded is keeping most of the Vision’s technical specs shrouded in secrecy at this stage, but it has established that it will be powered by a turbocharged four-cylinder mill placed behind the driver.
The four-pot is rumored to be a improvement of the Clio RS’ 1.6-liter turbo, possibly with a larger displacement to offer a lot more power than the latter’s 197hp and 177 lb-ft of torque, possibly paired to a dual clutch transmission with steering wheel paddles driving the rear wheels.
Alpine said that the car’s low weight, understood to be around the 1,000kg or 2,200 lbs mark, will help the future production model achieve 0 to 100 km/h (62mph) in less than 4.5 seconds, which matches the Alfa Romeo 4C’s time, beats the Porsche Cayman GTS w/Sport Chrono by 0.1 seconds and is only 0.1 sec behind the Porsche Cayman GT4.
