Alpine Returns To 24 Hours Of Le Mans With A424_β

Sixty years after its first entry in the 24 Hours of Le Mans, Alpine has unveiled the A424_β, foreshadowing its challenger in the premier class of the FIA Endurance World Championship. But that name surely is not something you see everyday and there’s good logic to it. The A nomenclature followed by three digits beginning with 4; respects the tradition of Alpine’s victorious endurance cars, 24 echoes the 24 Hours of Le Mans and 2024, and β designates its final stage before its launch.

We get to see Alpine’s future lighting signature on an incredibly racy and assertive front end, while the rear reveals two A-arrows. The triangular motif, echoing the Alpine snowflakes, also appears in the treatment of the daggerboards and rear wing.

In the cockpit, the drivers will take their place at the heart of a body that has been refined, purified and polished, like a road-going supercar. The flanks are inspired by Alpenglow, the concept car setting out Alpine's ambitions by embodying the fascinating future of the brand's production and competition models.
