Common Problems with the
2026 Alpine A110 (Modern)

The 2026 Alpine A110 (Modern) has an excellent reliability record with no widely reported common faults for this model year period.

Buying Tips for 2026 Alpine A110 (Modern)

  • Verify the Power Electronic Box (PEB) has been replaced or updated, as early unit failures can immobilise the car.
  • Check the air conditioning condenser; its low position makes it highly vulnerable to stone damage on UK roads.
  • Test the infotainment system extensively, as early versions are prone to freezing and Apple CarPlay dropouts.
  • Inspect the aluminium bodywork for signs of "paint bubbling" or galvanic corrosion, particularly near panel joins.
  • Listen for excessive brake squeal; while common for the Brembo setup, it can be annoying in daily traffic.
  • Ensure the dual-clutch transmission shifts smoothly and without hesitation, particularly when cold.
