Францын автомашин үйлдвэрлэгч Alpine компани хөнгөн жингийн үзүүлэлтийг хадгалахад чиглэсэн цоо шинэ Alpine A110 Future цахилгаан загварын туршилтын хувилбарыг олон нийтэд дэлгэлээ.
Энэхүү загвар нь гаднах төрхөөрөө хуучин A110 загвартай ижил мэт харагдах боловч суурь бүтцийн хувьд эрс өөрчлөгджээ. Тус компани цахилгаан автомашины жин нэмэгддэг гол асуудлыг шийдвэрлэхийн тулд хөнгөн цагаан их бие бүхий Alpine Performance Platform (PPP) шинэ платформыг бүтээсэн байна. Туршилтын загварын жин ойролцоогоор 1,400 кг бөгөөд 40:60 жингийн хуваарилалттайгаар зохион бүтээгджээ.
Техникийн хувьд уг автомашин нь хос цахилгаан мотор, цахилгаан удирдлагатай хойд тэнхлэг болон 800 вольтын хүчин чадалтай “cell-to-pack” батерейны системээр тоноглогдсон. Батерейны эсүүдийг автомашины бүтцийн хүрээнд шууд бэхэлснээр зай талбайг хэмнэж, жинг бууруулах боломж бүрджээ. Goodwood-д танилцуулахаар төлөвлөж буй энэхүү загвар нь дэлхийн анхны жинхэнэ цахилгаан спорт автомашин болох зорилготой юм.
Alpine 2017 онд 1960-70-аад оны сонгодог загвараа орчин үеийн 1.8 литрийн хөдөлгүүртэй, 249-300 морины хүчтэй хувилбараар шинэчлэн гаргаж байсан түүхтэй. Шинэ цахилгаан загварын хувьд хүч чадал, эргэлтийн моментийг нэмэгдүүлэхээс илүүтэйгээр спорт автомашинд байх ёстой хөнгөн, хурдтай, уян хатан шинж чанарыг хадгалах нь компанийн хамгийн том сорилт болоод байна. Эцсийн бүтээгдэхүүнийг 2026 оны сүүл эсвэл 2027 оны эхээр худалдаанд гаргахаар төлөвлөж байна.

This is the new Alpine A110 Future, a development car that will eventually make it into production.
It looks the same as the old A110, but everything underneath the body is different.
It’s electric, and it has a revolutionary chassis to keep it light.
With this, Alpine is trying to solve the main problem that all electric performance cars have.
Alpine wants to keep this as lightweight as possible
The first thing that stands out about the new Alpine A110 Future is that it looks virtually identical to the old A110.
Most people will probably see this as good news because the A110 certainly didn’t have a design problem.
The second important feature is the aluminum chassis.
One of the main problems with electric cars is that they’re very heavy.
This isn’t a deal-breaker for large SUVs or even fast sedans, but it is a significant hurdle for lightweight sports cars, which is what the A110 was.
The French automaker developed a new platform called Alpine Performance Platform – or PPP – which they presumably will reuse in the future.
But for now, we know that the new A110 Future should weigh around 1,400 kilograms – or 3,086 pounds.
It’s nowhere near as lightweight as the old one, which weighed 1,102 kilograms, but this is a technical inevitability.
And speaking of weight, the manufacturer is targeting a 40:60 weight distribution, although the car will come with rear-wheel drive.
This isn’t a production car… yet
The vehicle you see here is a development mule – a test car, if you like – that previews the all-electric successor.
According to the French manufacturer, this’ll be the ‘world’s first true EV sports car’.
Set to make its debut at Goodwood, the Alpine A110 Future features a dual-motor setup, an electronic rear axle, and an 800-volt cell-to-pack battery system.
Instead of stuffing individual battery cells into separate modules and then putting those modules into a big casing, ‘cell-to-pack’ means gluing the cells directly into the car’s structural frame – saving a ton of space and weight.
If everything goes to plan, the finished product will be unveiled in late 2026 or very early 2027.
A quick reminder of what the A110 was
In 2017, Alpine unveiled a modern take on the iconic A110 from the 1960s and 1970s.
It had the same name, a similar look, and more importantly the same spirit.
It was simple, and it had a small 1.8-liter engine which produced between 249 and 300 horsepower depending on the model.
Performance didn’t come from sheer power, but it came from the power-to-weight ratio, which is rare these days because most modern cars are just so heavy.
This’ll be the biggest challenge for the company.
Extracting power and especially torque from an electric motor is easy, making it as agile and fun as a lightweight sports car isn’t.
