Even as a race car all of its own, Alpine wanted the A424 to have the look and allure of a road-going supercar. There’s a bit of the Alpenglow concept (unsurprisingly) and obviously, nods to the recent machinery it succeeds. Key elements include the lighting signatures at the front and rear, with the latter featuring Alpine ‘A’-shaped lights. Like Porsche, Alpine also says it’s open to the idea of selling customer cars to privateer teams.ĭesign-wise, the A424 is intended to wear language set to be seen on Alpine’s road cars in the near future. The French manufacturer revealed the A424 Beta in a special press. Powering the car will be a 3.4-litre turbocharged Mecachrome V6 – a layout that will be unique to the A424 on the grid – working in conjunction with a prescribed hybrid system. Alpine has taken the covers off its 2024 LMDh challenger that will compete in the World Endurance Championship next season. This is a continuation of the relationship between Alpine and Oreca, following the A480 LMP1 car that has raced in the WEC over the last couple of years. As it follows LMDh rules, the A424 will use one of the outsourced chassis options, in this case Oreca, which is also used by Acura for the ARX-06.
