Nobody leaves: French gendarmerie got Alpine
In October 2021, the French corporation Renault won a national competition and received a contract for the production and supply of 110 Alpine A26 sports cars for the needs of the French Ministry of the Interior. The contract must be executed within the next four years after the conclusion. Already, the manufacturer has shown the first 2 police models.

The Alpine A110 is a rear wheel drive mid-engined sports car. The first cars under the contract received color schemes and signal lights that comply with the internal rules of the military and civilian police. Instead of standard 17-inch drives, 18-inch ones are installed. About other modifications at the moment is not officially said.
It is already known that Alpine police officers will work as cars chases, including taking part in operations aimed at combating illegal drug trafficking. This is obvious, because sports cars reach the first "hundred" in just 4,4 seconds, and the speed limit is at 250 km/h. Few criminals will be able to escape from such a car.

Under the hood of the Alpine A110 is a 1,8-liter V4 engine with 252 hp. With. and with a torque of 320 N * m. It is paired with a 7-speed Getrag robotic gearbox with two wet clutches. Do not forget about two modifications within this version, namely the A110 S and A110 GT models. These cars have on board a forced 1,8-liter engine that produces 300 hp. With. power and 340 N * m of torque. Due to this modernization, the acceleration from 0 to 100 km / h for sports cars takes not 4,4 seconds, like the original, but already 4,2 seconds.
Inside, Alpine sports cars are quite comfortable, because at hand the driver has a 7-inch infotainment screen with support for mobile control services, namely Android Auto and Apple CarPlay. It is optionally possible to install telemetry, and most likely, it will be in the police version, since it makes a lot of sense.

At the moment, it is impossible to judge the cost of a specific police version of the Alpine A110, since this is a special modification that is not found on the market. It is unlikely that, in principle, it will ever fall into civilian circulation, so one can only guess about the price. The standard variant in the European market starts at an average of $66.
