2. Alpine A110 (New)
Revived in 2017, the modern Alpine A110 channels its 1960s predecessor through a striking blend of retro-inspired aesthetics and contemporary engineering. Under its sinuous aluminum skin lies a lightweight bonded chassis weighing just over one metric ton. A mid-mounted 1.8-liter turbocharged four-cylinder borrowed from Renault’s Megane RS delivers 252 horsepower, but the A110’s true magic comes from its near-perfect weight balance and razor-sharp suspension tuning.
Its circular LED headlights and pronounced rear hips pay homage to the original rally legend. The minimalist cockpit emphasizes driver engagement, featuring a simple digital gauge cluster and lightweight seats. The new A110 feels like a walking tightrope, delivering uncanny agility wrapped in nostalgic design language.
