Hi Richard, I think EVs have a place but I would go back to the "roots". The idea with electric cars was to have small nifty electrics driving around a city. Not large SUVs. Different horses for different courses. EVs are an addition but as of today, they cannot serve as a replacement of all vehicles. Anyone who thinks they can, well, I shall not use bad words here ;-) @@richardhowlett9424
Such a glorious opening shot of the mist followed by a quite sobering 90 seconds on the future of sports cars. Those Aplines are just stunning, unique, special. I was lucky enough to spend a half hour admiring the various special editions at an Alpine showroom in Nice recently. The type of car you spec from new, keep forever and leave to a beloved relative in your will.
Anna great review . Please stop telling people to buy one of these ! I have a A110gt and in the UK very rare on the road and would like to keep it that way 😜
I like this car. I believe Alpine followed the principles behind the Mazda MX-5 and Lotus sports cars where light weight and handling is prioritized over high horsepower. I like the design of the A110 GT too. I’m not sure how to put their design language into words but it’s undeniably French and it’s gorgeous.
I own a a110 GT in orange fire since 2 years : a dream to drive, lighting quick being so light , peak torque already a 2400 rpm . Great sound considering it's a small 4 cyl. Makes heads turn , look like a small supercar and very exotic.
Bless you, Anna, for your love of real cars and for your eloquence in bemoaning the death of small fast coupes! It is a pity we can’t get the Alpine in the US, so I’ll have to live vicariously through you. I dearly love that you filmed this blasting around with the center display gloriously turned off.
Such a beauty. I cant see EV sport cars taking off. The claim that EVs are greener and will help save the planet is false when you drill all the info down. Manufacturers should focus on making the ICE more frugal, the knowledge and technology is there. Super review Anna.
Absolutely brilliant piece of engineering. Long live the internal combustion engine. I see that HERTZ are selling 20,000 of their electric vehicles due to high repair costs. When will the rest of the world also wake up to the fallacy that E vehicles are the answer to all the world's challenges.
Looks like a whole lot of fun. I really hope that EV does not become firmly entrenched, as far as I am concerned its all just a big hype. Where can the production of those batteries be saving the planet ?? And what happens when all of those batteries reach their sell by date and need to be disposed of ??
I’ve watched every second of every video mostly for you Anna and occasionally for a little gem No ev or suv for me ( Porsche ) but this although out of reach new is a belter Light and fast 👌👌👌 I’ll never tire of you 💋💋💋
Great review of the A110. Found your chanel looking for reviews on the Alfa Romeo Giulia Veloce, my favorite sedan for the moment. Keep up the good work, will follow your channel.
I get your point about ICE engines "end of an era", but I recall people saying the same thing about the move to automatic transmissions. Different kind of fun??
Different kind of fun, most certainly. But I'd say manual vs automatic is a much milder transition than a fully blooded combustion engine to an EV. Let me put it this way, imagine driving C63 AMG with a manual gearbox. Then it becomes automatic only. Ok, a bit of a pity but we still have paddle shifters. Doable, as the chunk of the character is still there. But then C63 AMG goes fully electric. What's really left? Not much.
Good points! What's left after electrification? Well, killer acceleration and I assume the handling will still be a strong point. Of course, I can't buy either the gas or electric models because they don't sell them in the US. Sigh....@@AnnaOnRoads
Killer acceleration is definitely a strong selling point for EVs. But I think it appeals to non-petrol heads actually. A lot more than it does to petrolheads. The whole drama that comes with acceleration in traditional sports cars - the revs, the sound, the excitement build-up cannot be compared to an instant acceleration in EVs. It's a different kettle of fish ;-) In terms of handling, there are only a few EVs which truly handle well. Simply because of the weight. We want the range, we have heavy batteries. But this significantly worsens the handling. I love the Audi RS e-tron GT, an amazing EV which handles superbly. For its weight - gross weight, nearly 2.9 tonnes. This is almost 3 Alpines ;-) so here, it's pure physics when it comes to handling ;-) @@superbear617
One of these most underestimates sport cars. Unfortunately most people never ride a car on a race track to find out which are really the cool ones. Only caveat: the RPM displayed in digits is ridiculous 😅.
I really like that car and you driving it even more. I love this video because you really cut loose! I hope to see more videos of you cutting loose, it excites me. I also hope to see some isolated shots of you flooring the throttle! ❤⚘😘💗
Light, agile, not very practically - but I like it. I really hope they will tax cars according to their weight in the future. Not to some weird WLTP fuel consumption numbers in kwh / litres per 100 km. Or ccm of their engines.
Consider Anna, all isn't lost 'yet'. People in America are getting the memo albeit a bit late. They aren't buying EV's. Yes, they are being suckers and buying hybrids. When hybrids start to age and get outside warranty and reliability cost increases by a factor of 2 x's due to 2 powertrains aka an engine + motor, consumers will start to understand. But until then, they will pay more for 'less' reliability long term as motors, motor controllers, battery and all the computers that allow a motor to work with an engine start to fail. Even the car you tested Anna has a very small engine displacement and high horsepower which translates to more pressure and heat due to turbocharger boost and dual clutch transmissions generally don't have the reliability of torque converter transmissions either. So the performance of that car isn't a free lunch either and won't last as long as a lessor performance car of say 10 years ago. Auto manufacturers don't make as much profit on cars that last forever and why they are designed now to fail out of warranty. If engineers get this balance of premature failure wrong, then it costs the auto maker more. Get it right and they make a huge windfall of profit selling replacement parts where they make the most money, not selling cars. So there is a reason behind their business model Anna including why auto makers sign up to making hybrids. Hybrids are much higher profit for auto makers when they go out of warranty. The public is really clueless about technology. Thanks for your video reviewing an uncommon car in America.
czesc Anna 😉 Well, I've never seen this car in person, it's really cool, I like it I wouldn't mind having a car like that lol a fantastic review anna dobrze zrobiony eheheeh 😉
Very good car and review, but Anna I still prefer my beloved Alfa Romeo Quadrifoglio. Thanks for sharing your input about the Alpine and still continue to do fine reviews. All the best.
The Alpine A110 is definitely underrated. I've never driven one however the reviews that I have read which you have reinforced Anna is that it is an awesome drivers car. Even James May owns one and we all know how picky he is when it comes to his cars. Unfortunately the A110 has not been available here in Australia for a while now due to its outdated safety crash worthiness. In the short term EV's will not be taking over the car landscape. The amount of the specialised minerals required to make lithium ion batteries to meet projected demand cannot be met. There was a conference held in Australia last year attended by representatives from Rio Tinto and battery manufacturers from Japan and South Korea and their consensus was they have no idea how battery production can meet the projected demand that is required to go full BEV.
Hello Anna, I think the future for these dream cars is the manufacture of synthetic gasoline. The iconic Alpine A110 is a very good purchase, I really recommend. 🙂
I think it’s a beautiful looking car fantastic lines. I wish it had a manual transmission. I think everyone’s going to follow the example of Toyota high-performance and efficiency gas engines ,they are going all in on hydrogen. That’s the future. EV‘s are not selling in the United States anymore. I come to another conclusion after watching this anna is colorblind .
@@gregs8685 - One tries, but there are many - dependent on the state - who (misguidedly) seem to think it's to their benefit to maintain the current debacle. Worse still, most of the EU lawmakers aren't even elected. They're 'appointed', by the dysfunctional governments. All that said, it seems things are beginning to crumble, which is what's required for change. Poland, strangely (and ironically, given this channel) went the other way, and (sort of but not really) elected a pro-EU head... and that's already beginning to crumble, after a few short months. For some reason, people don't tend to spot 'slippery slopes', until they've skidded halfway down them!
Hi Anthony, very well said! In Poland, we are always a little behind ;-) what an idiotic and moronic choice this was. It's amazing how little people remember, that muppet was in power just 8 years ago. I am so so glad to see people speak out. Lefties thought it'll be an El Dorado, little did they know. Fools. @@AnthonyKellett
Anna. I can not for the life of me see the panic for EV. They have been proved time and time again not to work, be super expensive and slow to re-charge. Apart from the small Volvos everything else seems in my eyes to be a mish mash of try this battery, oh, now this one, waste of time , and the insurance, tyre cost and the dreaded drop in value coupled with the massive purchase cost really does make one for me anyway a no go.
Hi Robert, this was the whole idea, to have small electric cars trot around cities. Somehow everything got manipulated into some sort of nonsense, absolutely!
I love love love your reviews. Funny, smart and just super clever. I would love to be in the back seat of one of those cars as you piece a review together. Now that’s an idea!! Well, anyway, great little car and rear wheel to boot!! Loved your fish tale take off in the beginning. Brilliant.
@@AnnaOnRoads hahahaha…. It’s Dave, actually. From now on, you can call me Greg. Only you! That’s hilarious!!! Well, I didn’t mean that car, but A car one day. To see the magic happen. 😂😂😂😂.
@@AnnaOnRoads yep, Dave from NY. I know you have lots of followers, so no problem. Call me whatever you want, but don’t call me late for dinner!! Now that’s really corny!!! 😂
Another cracking review Anna. I would adore one of these cars, a real drivers car without the frills that could distract you. I noticed no water bottle test but you don't want a drink in this car, you want to drive it. Have that drink when you stop and walk around the thing that got you there while grinning like a complete idiot. Although I've yet to drive an electric car and I'm looking into them when it comes to change I can't see them being as involved as the lightweight Alpine or if you don't care for any creature comforts or need any space a Caterham. Many thanks for sharing.
Hello Anna!!! Let me tell you before anything, I love how suit you that white shirt, you look so beautiful!!!. Yes, cars with electric motors or hibryd ones is the future, but I have bigs doubts on that concern. I have an A Class MB with 1.8 ltrs and 190 hp without electric stuff and I'm really happy about it. Electric is in a certain way boring... no sound, real sound I mean. The true is that Germany is getting back to the diesel. Who knows, maybe the future is not that darker.Have a wonderful day and Happy New Year!!! Bye!!!
Hi Eddy, thank you very much ❤ Electric can be fun. For a short while. Then it gets bland and boring. Which might be fine for most people but certainly not those who love cars. I think tables are slowly but surely start to turn! A very Happy New Year Eddy!
The EV market will grow, but there is no comprehensive "switch over" to EVs. 😏 We need coordinated international government regulation, availability of raw materials for the batteries without supply chain issues and most importantly, long-term usability of the vehicle with the option to easily replace the ion battery. Plus willing, affluent customers, at all tax brackets, which doesn't exist. 🤑 It's a slow grind to an all EV future. A very, long, slow grind. 😑 I like the retro-style of this car. 💚😁👍🏾
Great video, in terms of cars and assessment of foolish people. Grabbed a Toyota GR86, manual, so I can ride out this electric nightmare. Hope you have a few good ones too.
I love how unique this car is, but. Isn't it better to get Toyota Supra for this price? Or is that car worse, because parts from a Renault Clio doesn't fascinate me :D
It is very very unique ❤ Uuuuu, Supra is my favourite car, this is a hard battle for me. The car is not worse, it's superbly engineered, French engineers are actually one of the best in the world. Supra is a little comfier, this one is a bit niftier ;-)
Engaging review as usual Anna. It is a crime against humanity that this car is not available in North America. It appears to me that with every variant the 110 is creeping up to the venerable 911. But how would I know I have never seen one here in Canada let alone driven one.
Ice technology won't be lost but plainly battery cars are not the future too expensive to limiting can't fight a war in one or go off road just radom stuff.. In a 15 mins city they work. But that's a prison.
BTW... Whilst I'm here, (a very random question, I know... but, since you're in Poland) are there any better hotels than the Raffles Europejski, in Warsaw?
Hi Anthony! Oh I love love love these questions! I am an avid traveller and sadly I have a soft spot for great hotels. Surprise surprise ;-) The Raffles is by far THE best hotel in Warsaw, I often stayed at the Bristol next door, it has lots of charm but it's getting old. They have renovated their bathrooms (it was shocking previously) but not the rooms. Go for the Raffles, it's gorgeous!
@@AnnaOnRoads - That's great to know, Anna; and thanks for taking the time to give such a full response. I'm the same. I could talk forever (with a like-minded person, as I appreciate it's tedious for anyone else!) about my favourite hotels. It's just that I've never been to Warsaw (or Poland for that matter) and I always try to find the best; though I appreciate tastes vary. Anyway... Thanks again 👍🏽
L'espoir est que les voitures électriques sont en déclin depuis le début de l'année 2024. Les voitures électriques sont trop chères, trop lourdes, trop dangereuses(incendies), impossible à réparer après un choc, et...mauvaises pour la planète, un comble !!! (matériaux précieux =destruction des paysages, que faire des batteries en fin de vie ???). Donc restons confiants sur les autres orientations (hydrogène, carburant synthétique et autres). Merci Alpine d'apporter le sourire aux conducteurs de vos voitures "passion".
Sadly, it's French. I'll admit it's a fun, sporty car, but did you say £62,000! 😱😱 As long as us petrol heads stick together and don't buy EV's, we stand a chance. Great presentation as always, well done Anna.
Haha, you know Paul that French have and still do, build one of the greatest sports cars out there? Alpine is the Renault Group, Alpine, but also Renault, fantastic sports cars. I was absolutely amazed with the Megane Trophy RS. I wasn't that keen on driving it, it was one of the greatest cars I've driven. French aren't just good cooks 🤣
@@AnnaOnRoads Hi Anna, yes I know, and there's Bugatti as well, but the bottom line is they are French and as such a no go zone for any self-respecting Englishman. Are you keeping the faith Anna, do you still drive ICE?
What is your take on this type of cars? Will the disappear in the place of heavy EVs? What do you think? TELL ME!
Only the wealthy will be allowed to drive ICE cars, the peasants will have to walk or take the bus.
The backlash against electric cars is happening, I know of several people who have seen the errors of their ways , and gone back to ICE . So , fingers crossed , the engine car will rise again and this EV nonsense will be a bad, very expensive nightmare .

Dark times with regulations on electric vehicles. That car is awesome.
They are trying, but fantasy aspirations are not going to get them far ;-)
@@AnnaOnRoads 👏
Great video, in terms of cars and assessment of foolish people. Grabbed a Toyota GR86, manual, so I can ride out this electric nightmare. Hope you have a few good ones too.
I hope these mfgs keep the blueprints on how to make ALL these fun gas powered cars🤔🙄🫣
Let's keep them alive! ❤
I love how unique this car is, but. Isn't it better to get Toyota Supra for this price? Or is that car worse, because parts from a Renault Clio doesn't fascinate me :D
It is very very unique ❤ Uuuuu, Supra is my favourite car, this is a hard battle for me. The car is not worse, it's superbly engineered, French engineers are actually one of the best in the world. Supra is a little comfier, this one is a bit niftier ;-)
I hope big brands will invest in hydrogen. Let’s keep these engines roaring.
Let's roar! ❤
Engaging review as usual Anna. It is a crime against humanity that this car is not available in North America. It appears to me that with every variant the 110 is creeping up to the venerable 911. But how would I know I have never seen one here in Canada let alone driven one.
The Alpine is more of Boxster, Cayman competitor. They look and sound glorious, and are surprisingly small by todays standards.
@@shaywhelan1 Yes, I suppose you are right. The A110 falls more in the Cayman category. Thanks for your insights.
"anything sexy is coming to an end"....NOOOOOOOO please dont stop Anna.
*”available to you today” (unless you live in the US😢)
Ice technology won't be lost but plainly battery cars are not the future too expensive to limiting can't fight a war in one or go off road just radom stuff.. In a 15 mins city they work. But that's a prison.
BTW... Whilst I'm here, (a very random question, I know... but, since you're in Poland) are there any better hotels than the Raffles Europejski, in Warsaw?
Hi Anthony! Oh I love love love these questions! I am an avid traveller and sadly I have a soft spot for great hotels. Surprise surprise ;-) The Raffles is by far THE best hotel in Warsaw, I often stayed at the Bristol next door, it has lots of charm but it's getting old. They have renovated their bathrooms (it was shocking previously) but not the rooms. Go for the Raffles, it's gorgeous!
@@AnnaOnRoads - That's great to know, Anna; and thanks for taking the time to give such a full response. I'm the same. I could talk forever (with a like-minded person, as I appreciate it's tedious for anyone else!) about my favourite hotels. It's just that I've never been to Warsaw (or Poland for that matter) and I always try to find the best; though I appreciate tastes vary. Anyway... Thanks again 👍🏽
L'espoir est que les voitures électriques sont en déclin depuis le début de l'année 2024. Les voitures électriques sont trop chères, trop lourdes, trop dangereuses(incendies), impossible à réparer après un choc, et...mauvaises pour la planète, un comble !!! (matériaux précieux =destruction des paysages, que faire des batteries en fin de vie ???). Donc restons confiants sur les autres orientations (hydrogène, carburant synthétique et autres). Merci Alpine d'apporter le sourire aux conducteurs de vos voitures "passion".
dont sit on a beautiful car!
I already squashed it with my big bottom
Sadly, it's French. I'll admit it's a fun, sporty car, but did you say £62,000! 😱😱 As long as us petrol heads stick together and don't buy EV's, we stand a chance. Great presentation as always, well done Anna.
Haha, you know Paul that French have and still do, build one of the greatest sports cars out there? Alpine is the Renault Group, Alpine, but also Renault, fantastic sports cars. I was absolutely amazed with the Megane Trophy RS. I wasn't that keen on driving it, it was one of the greatest cars I've driven. French aren't just good cooks 🤣
Sadly french? If you believe it is not worth 62k then you for sure have not tried it…
I agree Simon, so Paul - you gotta give it a go!!! @@simonhurlimann908
@@AnnaOnRoads Hi Anna, yes I know, and there's Bugatti as well, but the bottom line is they are French and as such a no go zone for any self-respecting Englishman. Are you keeping the faith Anna, do you still drive ICE?
@@AnnaOnRoads NEVER! 😂😂
Anna stated she likes the colour of the car.
Me: I'm sure Anna has a dress in a similar colour 🤔 Understandable.
Hi Gregory, of course I do! Trousers in this colour - ua-cam.com/video/z9b-UhpkBck/v-deo.html

😅😅 As for we keep on voting for mopeds 😅😅. Tell that to South Africans 😅😅.
At least female fingernails will still be beautiful ; ) Thanks for the video , Anna~
but if no one buys them this EV crap will stop
Classy, Beautiful and Sexy! The Car looks Great Too , Cheers from Dallas, Texas
;-) ❤
I wil never ever buy a eltrick car.

I cannot more agree than you !!!!!! Save the planet from those idiots !!!!
As a green leftist muppet
I endorse this video.
Haha, good, thank you!
Sempre figa!🎉
There is something so wholesome about a girl who owns a leather jacket for years, fits like a glove, gets better with age.🤎
