Alpine electric vehicle FAQs
Get all the answers to your questions about Alpine electric models.
How it works
An electric Alpine is powered by a high-voltage battery that supplies one or more electric motors. These motors transmit power directly to the wheels, delivering quiet, responsive and precise driving. The battery can be charged via public charging points, fast charge stations or at home, and the entire system is designed to optimise range and performance while guaranteeing the safety and reliability characteristic of Alpine models.
The electric motor differs from the internal combustion engine by:
- its silence and instant, responsive torque;
- the absence of local emissions;
- a direct transmission that delivers a smooth, precise driving sensation.
Unlike combustion engines, maintenance is simplified with fewer moving parts, and charging can be done via charging stations or at home. The driving experience remains true to Alpine DNA: light, agile and exhilarating.
battery and driving range
Battery life depends on several factors:
- use;
- maintenance;
- driving conditions.
The batteries are designed to maintain optimum capacity for many years and hundreds of thousands of kilometres. With regular maintenance and proper use, an electric Alpine offers long-term reliability and performance, true to the brand's characteristic driving experience.
The range of an electric Alpine varies according to model and driving conditions.
- The A290 model offers a range¹ of up to 380 km.
- The A390 model offers a range¹ of up to 555 km.
Actual range depends on factors such as driving style, topography and weather conditions, but every Alpine is designed to combine performance and efficiency over the long term.
¹ WLTPcycle
To optimise the range of an electric Alpine, we recommend:
- drive smoothly and progressively;
- maintain an appropriate speed on roads and motorways;
- limit the intensive use of heating and air conditioning;
- charge regularly, ideally keeping the battery between 15 and 80%.
These simple gestures help preserve range while guaranteeing a dynamic and comfortable driving experience, true to the Alpine DNA.
Charging
Alpine offers several charging solutions to suit your needs:
- At home, plug it into a domestic socket (reinforced or standard) or your wall-mounted charging point. Mobilize Power Solutions assists you with the installation of your home charging solution. Order the Mobilize Power Solutions terminal when you purchase your new Alpine vehicle.
- On the road: charge at nearly a million public charging points across Europe with the Mobilize Charge Pass service, and pay easily at most of them. In a rush? Try the quick charge stations. The My Alpine app helps you locate the nearest available charging stations, consult their features and activate the Plug & Charge function for automatic start-up of charging and payment.
These solutions ensure optimum flexibility for charging your Alpine, wherever you are.
Our electric range is fitted as standard with a mode 3 type 2 cable (6.5 m for A290 and 5 m for A390), enabling you to connect to your home charging point or any public charging point (on AC, over 90% of public charging points in France). Equip yourself with a Mode 2 "FlexCharger" cable for occasional charging, or in the absence of a dedicated charging solution for your Alpine electric vehicle, use a green up 3.7 kW reinforced socket. With this cable on this socket, you can recover between 150 km and 200 km in 1 night.
All versions are fitted as standard with a DC rapid charger (maximum peak power of 100 kW for A290, 150 kW for A390 GT and 190 kW for A390 GTS) compatible with high-power charging stations on motorways and in some shopping centres. No additional cable is needed for this charging mode, as the cables are attached to the charging station. Just like filling up at the pump.
Charging time varies depending on the selected configuration. Standard charge: at home or at a public charging station, the A290 on standard charge recovers up to 70 km of range in 1 hour, allowing you to fully charge overnight (7 to 10 h depending on the battery); the A390 on standard charge of 7.4 kW charges from 20% to 80% overnight (8 h). This charging mode is also compatible with all public charging stations, including DC fast-charging stations (mainly on motorways) to recover up to 150 km WLTP in 15 minutes with a peak power of 100 kW for A290, and to charge from 15% to 80% in 29 minutes with a peak power of 150 kW for A390.
The cost of a charge depends on the type of charging station used and the rate applied by the operator.
On average, home charging remains the most economical solution, while public fast-charging stations can be a little more expensive.
Financing
We offer a wide range of financing solutions for every situation: Personal Contract Purchase (PCP), Contract Hire (CH), and Hire Purchase (HP). Visit your nearest Alpine Store, where your salesperson will be happy to help you.
With PCP you have the option of either owning the vehicle at the end of your agreement, financing a new vehicle or handing the vehicle back. With HP you will own the vehicle at the end of your agreement. Contract Hire you lease the vehicle for the duration with no ownerships options.
With Personal Contract Purchase between 24 and 48 months. For Hire Purchase and Contract Hire, the finance contract is between 24 and 60 months.
We offer a wide range of financing options for our Alpine vehicles, please visit our product pages for more information.
Maintenance
The cost of maintaining an electric Alpine is generally lower than that of a combustion-powered model.
With fewer wear parts and no need to change the engine oil, servicing is simpler.
Visits to the Alpine network help maintain performance while keeping costs under control over the long term.
Alpine electric vehicles are serviced in an Alpine workshop within the Alpine approved network, where technicians are trained in the specific features of electric powertrains.
The frequency of visits depends on the model and usage. The service manual specifies the deadlines to be met to guarantee performance and reliability.
Maintenance of an electric Alpine is simpler than that of a combustion-powered model. It mainly consists of checking safety and comfort components: brakes, tyres, filters, brake fluid and air conditioning system.
