Ah, Alpine, the French automaker that’s attempting to make a splash in the electric crossover pond with the A390, the ‘bigger A110 for five.’ Let’s see, five years of accelerated use in the Arctic Circle – sounds like they’re banking on the ‘five’ for a good reason, eh? And let’s not forget, they’re aiming to make it smaller than a Porsche Macan. Nice one! But kudos for the blue wheels that light up when they’re doing ‘active torque vectoring’ – that’s gotta be the best way to keep your rear wheels from spinning off the road, right? Meanwhile, it’s a whole 30 years since Alpine last took the plunge in the North American market. I guess with the A390, they’re planning to ‘create a handy bow wave’ for a bigger model in 2028. Or maybe it’s just a ‘big wave’ of a new problem for drivers – who knew a car could be too agile?
