In 2021, Alpine Cars, Renault Sport Cars, and Renault Sport Racing merged under the Alpine brand. This consolidation positioned Alpine as Groupe Renault's dedicated brand for innovative and exclusive sports cars. The brand benefits from its historic plant in Dieppe and the engineering expertise from Formula One and Renault Sport teams.
