10. Alpine A110
The legendary Renault Alpine A110, a rally legend and one of the best sports cars from the early 70’s finally have a modern version. For years, Renault has teased performance car fans with concepts and announcements. Finally, in 2017 they announced they would have a production-ready car available for early 2018. If you are familiar with the classic Alpine, you will instantly recognize the shape and the idea behind this fabulous car.
The Alpine is a small, lightweight sports coupe, with a rear-mounted engine and rear-wheel drive. It provides a high level of driving excitement and an unparalleled road holding and feel. And that was Renault’s exact idea behind the new Alpine A110. This small coupe weighs just over a ton and has a 1.8-liter turbocharged four-cylinder behind the driver to power the rear wheels.
It has more than adequate power with a 252 HP engine that runs through a seven-speed dual-clutch gearbox. The specifications are fantastic and acceleration times are under five seconds. This is one of the biggest affordable sports car premieres coming, and lucky buyers can expect their Alpine in early 2018.
