The Grand Tourisme Alpine (GTA), marketed in most markets as the Renault Alpine V6 GT or V6 Turbo and in Great Britain simply as the Renault GTA (Sunbeam and then Chrysler/Talbot had used the Alpine badge there since the 1950s), is a 2+2 coupé produced in Dieppe, France, from November 1984 to February 1991 and launched in 1985. It is the successor to the Alpine A310 and the first Alpine produced 100% by Renault, using the PRV V6 in a rear-engined layout with extensive use of polyester and fibreglass body panels moulded in many small separate panels rather than one piece as on the A310; the central backbone chassis was built by Heuliez and the drivetrain sits on a separate subframe that can be removed in as little as two hours. The naturally aspirated V6 GT (D500), with the 2,849 cc engine of the Renault 25 producing 160 PS, entered production in November 1984 and set an aerodynamic record for its category with a Cx of 0.28; the V6 Turbo (D501), introduced in September 1985 with the 2,458 cc turbo V6 of the Renault 25 V6 Turbo producing 200 PS, raised the Cx to 0.30 and, as tested by Autocar, reached 0–60 mph in 6.3 seconds and 149 mph. A right-hand-drive version was presented at the 1986 Birmingham Show; a catalysed version with less power arrived in early 1987; anti-lock brakes became available in 1988; the limited Mille Miles (100 cars) appeared for the 1989 model year and the limited Le Mans, with a more aggressive body kit, was launched in February 1990 and built until February 1991 (325 cars). A federalised US version for American Motors was abandoned when Renault sold its AMC share in March 1987, after 21 pre-series cars. Average production was just above 1,000 per year; the GTA and A610 together total roughly 7,300 units.

Owning one
We don’t estimate running costs for a car like this. What it costs depends on its condition, its specialist and how it is driven, and an average would mislead.
