Alpine A110 II facelift (2021 – 2025)

Reliability score : 8.4/10

The second-generation Alpine A110 received a major update to its lineup at the end of 2021 (often considered its 'facelift' or Phase 2). This overhaul structured the offering around three pillars: the original A110 (252 hp), the A110 GT (300 hp, grand touring oriented), and the A110 S (300 hp, sharpened chassis). The range was later crowned by the radical A110 R in 2022. Faithful to the brand's DNA, it shines with its lightness (around 1,100 kg), exceptional agility, and unmatched road feel. Although its infotainment system was updated (integration of Apple CarPlay/Android Auto), it remains below premium standards. In terms of reliability, the 1.8 TCe (M5Pt) block shared with the Mégane IV RS proves to be generally very robust, with the main issues focusing on peripherals or constraints re
