The Alpine A110 San Remo 73 is a new edition of the French sports car that celebrates its glorious past in rallying. It pays homage to the original Alpine A110 that won the Rallye Sanremo in Italy in 1973, driven by Jean-Luc Thérier and Christian Delferrier.
The new edition is based on the Alpine A110S, the most powerful and agile version of the modern A110. It features many exclusive details that evoke the spirit and livery of the 1973 rally car, such as:
- White exterior paint with blue and red stripes along the sides and hood.
- A carbon fiber roof with a large number 5 on it matches the rally car's number.
- A black leather interior with red stitching and San Remo 73 badges on the headrests and door sills.
- A plaque on the dashboard with the serial number of each of the 73 units that will be produced.
- A certificate of authenticity signed by Jean-Luc Thérier, who passed away in 2019.
The Alpine A110 San Remo 73 also comes with a special gift box that includes a scale model of the rally car, a book about Alpine's history in rallying, and a poster of the Rallye Sanremo.
The Alpine A110 San Remo 73 is more than just a cosmetic package, though. It also boasts some impressive performance figures, thanks to its 1.8-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine that produces 288 horsepower and 236 pound-feet of torque. It can accelerate from 0 to 62 mph in 4.4 seconds and reach a top speed of 161 mph.
