Alpine A110s turned into rolling works of art

By CARSIFU | 23 May 2021


MONACO: From the sidelines of the Monaco Grand Prix, Alpine has unveiled a special A110 designed by Felipe Pantone, the second collaboration piece to debut since the partnership with the Argentinian artist began in April.

The first collaboration "Alpine F1 x Felipe Pantone" was presented a few weeks ago, where Felipe Pantone delivered his artistic interpretation of Formula 1 with Alpine on a 1/2 scale model that was exhibited on the first floor of the Atelier Renault dedicated to Alpine.

The second collaboration between Alpine and Pantone showcased a piece of Felipe Pantone’s work on the Alpine A110, the brand's iconic model.

Before tackling this project, Pantone spent long hours studying the brand and its history, as well as driving an Alpine A110 to feel the unique personality of the French sports coupe.

The result was a modern, dynamic and elegant interpretation of the A110. The graphic lines follow the shape of the A110 which give an impression of speed even when the car stands still. It also features the signature colours of Pantone, black and white.

“My idea regarding the work on the A110 is to evoke a sense of “ultradynamism”. Visual speed is something that I have been investigating for years now and I feel it really comes together on this car, emphasising its brilliant design with a fast, technological look”, said Pantone.

The paint job on the body, carried out entirely by hand by the artist, represents several weeks of work. For even greater exclusivity, each of the three models offered for sale will feature subtle graphic variations to make each of these A110s a unique piece.

The A110 designed by Pantone is based on an A110S, the most powerful version in the A110 range with 292hp. Each of the three A110s will be on sale at a price of €125,000 (RM631,000) including tax.

Approved for road use, these unique works of art are targeted at collectors and lovers of beautiful objects as opposed to track fans. The conditions of access to acquire one of the three works will be communicated at a later date.
