What is it about?
The Alpine Alpenglow is a futuristic hydrogen-powered concept car unveiled by French automaker Alpine in 2022. According to Topgear.com, Alpine’s company boss, Philippe Krief, has said it is “a possibility” for future Le Mans racing, and even a distant possibility for a road supercar. Designed as a high-performance hypercar, the Alpenglow showcases Alpine’s vision for sustainable, zero-emission motorsport, blending innovation and tradition.
Its streamlined, aerodynamic form, characterised by a low profile, sharp V-shaped front, and a striking “long-tail” rear, draws inspiration from Alpine’s classic racing heritage. Powered by a hydrogen-fueled V8 internal combustion engine, the Alpenglow emits only water vapour, effectively combining traditional combustion engine sensations with environmentally responsible technology. Its distinctive lighting signature reinterprets Alpine’s iconic four-headlamp layout, while the striking blue colour scheme symbolises purity, ice, and water, contrasted by dynamic red accents. Positioned as both a technological showcase and a design manifesto, the Alpenglow foreshadows Alpine’s future direction in competition and road vehicles, emphasising performance, sustainability, and innovation.
