Alpine continues the transformation of its compact electric A290 by introducing this feature as standard.
Designed to simplify drivers’ daily lives, one-pedal driving is now included as standard on all new Alpine A290 orders since October 13.
The principle is based on a simple yet clever idea: combine acceleration and deceleration on a single pedal. By releasing the accelerator, the car automatically slows down thanks to energy recuperation, stopping without any brake pedal intervention. This functionality, already appreciated on several electric models, has here a specific version calibrated for the sporty and precise spirit of the A290.
A Foot Movement to Master
To activate it, the driver uses the RCH rotary selector on the steering wheel. Once engaged, a “One Pedal” indicator appears on the digital display, confirming that the feature is active. It remains operational in Drive mode and automatically deactivates when switching to reverse or neutral, ensuring full control in all situations.

Designed for the city but faithful to Alpine’s dynamic DNA, this assistance not only improves comfort: it also optimizes the motor’s energy efficiency by maximizing regeneration during each deceleration phase. The result is a smoother, more efficient drive that does not sacrifice the brand’s typical responsiveness.
