Aesthetics by Alonso
This edition is available exclusively with the Racing Matte Blue used on the Formula 1 A522. The harmonious exterior colour has been altered, thanks to the input from Fernando Alonso, for an even sportier feel. The front and rear carbon-fibre bonnet are partially painted, respectively, with the same Racing Matte Blue and the Deep Black used for the body. At the same time, they have an entirely carbon-fibre finish on the A110 R.

Fernando Alonso’s signature is embroidered into the seats and the blue-orange-yellow flag on the door panels pays homage to the collaboration between Alpine and the driver. A quote representing the driver’s philosophy has been laser-cut into the sun visor: “There is more than one path to the top of the mountain”.
Adjustable chassis: for the ‘Fernando Alonso’ feel
The Fernando Alonso A110 R limited series features a unique adjustment system to easily and quickly change the height of the body, as well as the stiffness of the suspension. In just a few quick and easy steps, a shim placed at the base of the spring means the spring’s position can be changed and the vehicle lowered by 10mm for track-only use. At the same time, the stiffness of the suspension is increased by +5%. An Alpine-patented innovation, it will give enthusiasts ready access to track settings approved by Fernando Alonso himself on Barcelona’s F1…
