Hydrogen powered single-seater concept offers a glimpse of what's coming from Alpine's Dream Garage 😍
You know how it goes with the really zany concepts, especially those from French manufacturers. They look sensational, promise so much, capture the hearts and minds of all who see them… then vanish from the face of the earth, never to be seen or spoken of ever again. Not this time, says Alpine, because this extraordinary ‘Alpenglow’ - five metres long, two metres wide and one metre high - really is going to influence upcoming cars for both road and track. And not be a Special K alternative.
What’s less clear is how the Alpenglow’s powertrain will find its way into future Alpines. Having committed to electric cars, here’s an Alpine with a hydrogen-powered combustion engine, keeping the sound we all love with reduced environmental impact. “‘Green’ hydrogen is one of the solutions that the brand is considering for sustainable mobility”, reads the press release, an interesting development given what looked like an all-out commitment on battery electric vehicles.
