Alpine and its A110 are Rallye World Champion !

1974
For the new models 1600 SX, SI and SC Alpine develops a new suspension concept which is introduced with the A310 model, the successor of the A110. The fact that the French government forbids all motorsport events has severe impact on Alpine's economical situation.

1977
In July Alpine stops fabricating the A110. The last Berlinette is a green 1600 SX. Even the Spanish production site has to deliver parts to complete this car. All in all 7176 Berlinette left the site at Dieppe. But there have been license agreements with Bulgarian, Spanish and Mexican companies. The following years saw seeral successors of the Berlinette. But none of them reached neither its popularity nor its image.

1996 - The End
Renault decides the model A610 to be last Alpine ever built. The company's management is not convinced of being able to develop a model for such a small market segment in an economical way. The factory in Dieppe is used for assembling of other Renault cars.
