Alpine A290 Overview
The Alpine A290 is an Electro, five-door hatchback produced from June 2024. The catalogue lists one generation, one body type—Hatchback 5-door—and two AT versions. Both versions use an Automatic gearbox and FWD, but they differ in output, torque, acceleration, top speed, and kerb weight.
The Alpine A290 is an Electro, five-door hatchback produced from June 2024. The catalogue lists one generation, one body type—Hatchback 5-door—and two AT versions. Both versions use an Automatic gearbox and FWD, but they differ in output, torque, acceleration, top speed, and kerb weight. Price, availability in the USA, interior details, dimensions, and sales information are not measured in the supplied data.
Alpine A290 Generations
The Alpine A290 1 generation entered production in June 2024 and remains in production. It is offered as a Hatchback 5-door with two versions, both named AT in the catalogue. They are distinguished by power: AT (177 hp) and AT (218 hp). No separate restyling is listed.
Alpine A290 Engine and Specs
The Alpine A290 is electric: both versions have an Electro engine and use Electro fuel. Consequently, conventional engine displacement, cylinder count, cylinder layout, and boost specifications are not measured. Both versions pair an Automatic gearbox with FWD.
| Version | Power | Torque | Displacement | Fuel | Cylinders | Layout | Boost | Gearbox | Drive |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| AT (177 hp) | 177 hp / 130 kW | 285 Nm | not measured | Electro | not measured | not measured | not measured | Automatic | FWD |
| AT (218 hp) | 218 hp / 160 kW | 310 Nm | not measured | Electro | not measured | not measured | not measured | Automatic | FWD |
The AT (218 hp) produces 41 hp and 30 kW more than the AT (177 hp). Its torque advantage is 25 Nm. Engine speed at maximum power and engine speed at maximum torque are not measured for either version. The number of gearbox ratios is also not measured.
Alpine A290 Performance and Economy
| Version | 0–100 km/h | Top speed | City consumption | Highway consumption | Combined consumption | CO₂ |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| AT (177 hp) | 7.4 seconds | 160 km/h | not measured | not measured | not measured | 0 |
| AT (218 hp) | 6.4 seconds | 170 km/h | not measured | not measured | not measured | 0 |
The AT (218 hp) reaches 100 km/h 1.0 second sooner than the AT (177 hp), while its top speed is 10 km/h higher. The supplied data reports 0–100 km/h rather than 0–60 mph, so an Alpine A290 0–60 mph figure is not measured.
City, highway, and combined energy-consumption figures are not measured for either version. A gasoline-equivalent mpg figure is not measured. Battery capacity, electric driving range, and charging performance are also not measured, so no range or charging comparison can be made from this catalogue data.
Alpine A290 Dimensions and Weight
| Version | Kerb weight | Gross weight | Ground clearance | Tank | Wheel sizes |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| AT (177 hp) | 1,479 kg | 1,950 kg | not measured | not measured | not measured |
| AT (218 hp) | 1,554 kg | 1,950 kg | not measured | not measured | not measured |
The AT (218 hp) weighs 75 kg more than the AT (177 hp). Both have the same listed gross weight of 1,950 kg. Overall length, width, height, wheelbase, boot dimensions, and other body measurements are not measured. Ground clearance and wheel sizes are likewise not measured.
Both Alpine A290 versions have Independent, spring suspension at the front and rear. Ventilated disc brakes are fitted at both ends. Tank capacity is not measured; the catalogue identifies both cars as Electro rather than gasoline-powered versions.
Which Alpine A290 Version to Choose?
Choose the AT (177 hp) if lower kerb weight matters more than maximum performance. It provides 177 hp, 130 kW, and 285 Nm, reaches 100 km/h in 7.4 seconds, has a top speed of 160 km/h, and weighs 1,479 kg.
Choose the AT (218 hp) if stronger acceleration and the highest listed output are the priorities. It provides 218 hp, 160 kW, and 310 Nm, reaches 100 km/h in 6.4 seconds, has a top speed of 170 km/h, and weighs 1,554 kg. Compared with the AT (177 hp), it adds 41 hp and 25 Nm, reduces the 0–100 km/h time by 1.0 second, and raises top speed by 10 km/h, with a 75 kg increase in kerb weight.
Both choices retain the same basic specification: a Hatchback 5-door body, Electro power, an Automatic gearbox, FWD, Independent, spring suspension, and ventilated disc brakes at the front and rear. Price, spec-level equipment, interior features, reliability data, problems, availability for sale, and USA availability are not measured, so they cannot be used to distinguish the two versions.
