Final handling tests for Alpine A390 sport fastback

The Alpine sport fastback’s dynamic performance will be tested on the 4,100m wet test track at Ladoux Technology Centre in Auvergne, France.

The A390 features three electric motors, which enable Alpine Active Torque Vectoring, and five driving modes, including the new Track Mode that adjusts the settings of the ESC (electronic stability control).
