On November 15 and 16, 2025, Circuit Paul Ricard will host Private Supercars & Friends – Round #3 (by Exclusive Drive), one of the most eagerly awaited gatherings for driving enthusiasts.
This year, all eyes will be on one car: the Alpine A110 R Ultime. A limited series of just 110 units, designed as the final chapter of Alpine’s combustion-powered lineage.
Developed in Dieppe and refined on the track, the A110 R Ultime doesn’t rely on theatrics. Its appeal lies in meticulous engineering and an uncompromising focus on driving precision.
The A110 R Ultime: Alpine’s know-how, distilled
Under the engine cover sits the 1.8-liter turbocharged four-cylinder, producing 325 hp on SP98 fuel and 345 hp on SP102, with 420 Nm of torque.
It sprints from 0 to 100 km/h in 3.6 seconds and reaches 300 km/h, thanks to a weight kept under 1,080 kg. Its effectiveness comes from balance and lightness, not brute force.
Öhlins adjustable suspension, AP Racing brakes with 330-mm bi-material discs, Michelin PS2 Cup tires, and a recalibrated six-speed EDC gearbox ensure razor-sharp handling.
The chassis features a full carbon body kit, specific suspension geometry, an adjustable rear wing, a vented bonnet, and a titanium Akrapovič exhaust.
It rides on forged Fondmetal wheels—18 inches at the front, 19 at the rear—perfectly matching the car’s balance and stance.
Inside, Alcantara upholstery and carbon trim reflect Alpine’s philosophy: everything serves the driver, nothing is superfluous.
Base price: €260,000, with 67 examples reserved for France.
An exclusive test drive at Circuit Paul Ricard
During Private Supercars & Friends 2025, Alpine will offer a private test drive of the A110 R Ultime, both on road and on track.
Participants will be accompanied by Alpine instructors for a tailored driving session on one of the most technically demanding circuits in Europe.
With its sweeping corners and the legendary Mistral straight—open without chicane from 1:45 p.m.—the Paul Ricard circuit provides the perfect environment to experience the car’s precision and aerodynamic balance.
Bookings are mandatory: [email protected] or +33 6 80 51 94 01.
Alpine’s precision, between heritage and modernity
The A110 R Ultime carries on the core Alpine principles: light weight, efficiency, and mechanical purity.
It also marks a turning point before the electric era, heralded by the upcoming A290, which will also be on display and available for test drives, alongside the A110 GTS and A110 R.
At the Alpine Village in the paddock, visitors will be able to meet the brand’s teams, discuss setup and engineering, and explore the full range in a relaxed but technical atmosphere—true to Dieppe’s spirit.
Private Supercars & Friends: two days devoted to driving
Beyond Alpine’s presence, Private Supercars & Friends – Le Castellet 2025 will feature track sessions for all levels, race-car passenger rides, premium hospitality, and a panoramic restaurant lunch.
But for Alpine enthusiasts, the highlight is obvious: seeing—and above all driving—the A110 R Ultime where it truly belongs.
