The future of Alpine & egrave; track: the Dieppe brand is preparing to become exclusively zero emissions and will do so & agrave; with three models coming in the next few years. But Alpine may also explore other zero-emission solutions for its cars in the future. Among these, in the lead, hydrogen .
The French company already has; showed interest in this type of power supply with the A4810 , the concept car created together with the IED, the European Institute of Design in Turin, which worked side by side with the brand's style center for interpret how it will be a hypothetical 2035 Alpine supercar.

The car in question is powered, in fact, by hydrogen, even if it is not; it has been specified whether a thermal engine capable of using gas as fuel is hidden under the hood or whether there is a fuel cell system.
Be that as it may, Alpine CEO Laurent Rossi has now stated that the company has decided to keep internal combustion power supplies in the portfolio and that in this case hydrogen could be the best solution.
The idea is was made public during an interview with the English magazine Autocar on the occasion of the Formula 1 Grand Prix of Silverstone held last Sunday. & ldquo; & Egrave; normal that you look at parallel paths & ndash; Rossi said – We want to find alternatives that are not incompatible with electrification, which represents the future of the automotive industry for at least 60-70% of the car fleet of tomorrow & rdquo ;.
For the rest, however, you will have to evaluate other solutions that better match the characteristics of the different types of vehicles. For example, on light commercials, which have pre-arranged journeys and needs; to have a high payload there may be different technologies. And the same could happen on high-performance sports cars.
