- Alpine has published images showing her A390 tests near the Arctic.
- The first interior image reveals the same steering wheel as A290 Hot Hatch.
- The electric rival of Porsche Macan made its world debut on May 27.
Bouyed by a car victory of the year for his hot A290 hatch, Alpine builds a buzz on the next car in her reinvention plan. The Renault Performance division has just dropped a charge of images of the A390 crossing undergoing winter tests before a revelation of May 27.
Our own Scoop photographers have already broken disguised A390 prototypes, but never in detail. These official shots offer us views near the aerodynamic bridge at the front, showing how the air is pulled between the horizontal light bar and alpine lettering and spatting through the engulfed hood.

They also show the spine that crosses the hood and the roof, the LED rear fire design, the small lip spoiler of the trunk and gives us our first overview of the A390 cockpit. The unique interior image reveals a large flat -bottom steering wheel and wrapped in leather which seems identical to that of the small A290, which is inspired by the Alpine F1 car.
In addition to the usual ray buttons for the cruise control, the volume and voice control functions, it has three switches designed to help you adapt the driving experience. A red buttoned button for “ exceeds ” on top of the right, spoke and activated with a thumb press operates the power boost function (although on the A290, you can also get the same answer by kicking the accelerator in front of relaxation).
There is a driving mode button at five sets down under the same radius and, below that opposed, a rotary dial to modify the quantity of regenerative braking. Just visible in the foot in the background is a pair of sports metal pedals, but we cannot distinguish the shape of the dashboard or see the screens or the seats.
These images also give us our first overview of the torque vectorization capacities from the Triple engine configuration of the A390, many shots presenting the capacities of crossover of the crossover, which increases well for its chances of giving the Porsche Macan Electric a race for its money.
The dimensions published by Alpine tell us that the A390 of 4,615 mm (181.7 inches) is a little shorter, narrower and lower than the SUV -shaped Macan, but the Alpine claims that it will offer place to five passengers.
