AN EVOCATIVE NAME
With its design, the A424 Beta reaffirms the brand's DNA while foreshadowing its future. Its name A424 Beta is a symbol of this: the terminology of the A followed by three digits beginning with 4, respects the tradition of Alpine's winning Endurance cars, 24 echoes the 24 Hours of Le Mans and 2024, and Beta designates the final phase before its launch.
The A424 Beta is the epitome of Alpine elegance and sportiness. A genuine work of automotive art, it heralds Alpine's future light signature on an extraordinarily racy and assertive front end, while the rear reveals two exceptionally eye-catching A-arrows. The triangular motif symbolizing Alpine's snowflakes equally also shines through the daggerboards and rear wing.
In the cockpit, the drivers will seat within the refined, sleek and smooth bodywork similar to a road-going supercar. The flanks are equally inspired by Alpenglow, Alpine's manifesto, embodying the fascinating future of the brand's production and competition models.
