Students From a Design School in Italy Developed a New Supercar Concept With Guidance From Alpine. The Hydrogen-Powered Car Combines Sustainability and High Performance

A new concept of a hydrogen-powered supercar has been created by 28 master’s students studying transportation design at the Istituto Europeo di Design (IED) in Turin, Italy, in collaboration with Alpine. The concept was named A4810, in recognition of the 4,810 meters of altitude of Mont Blanc, the highest and most emblematic peak of the Alps, which lies on the border between Italy and France, symbolizing the link between the Italian design school, French sports, and the car company. “The A4810 is a car that adopts cutting-edge technologies while upholding the traditional characteristics of the Alpine brand, which was founded in 1955,” says a press release from Alpine.

“A model that is not only technologically advanced, but also environmentally friendly, the A4810 offers a glimpse of future supercars,” highlighted one of the students involved in the project.

The student-led project is one of the new ways that Alpine is adopting to broaden its horizons for new generations of designers and drivers. The two-seater sports car adapts the most advanced application of a sustainable hydrogen powertrain with the latest in supercar aesthetics. “The French spirit has been skillfully preserved: avoiding unnecessary formal elements, the designers focused on the overlapping layers and sculptural aspects of the car’s silhouette,” says the release.

“Alpine challenged the students to design a ‘super berlinette’ for the year 2035,” according to the release. The hydrogen-powered two-seater supercar was designed to be a high-performance vehicle with a significant environmental impact.

“After the briefing was conducted last fall, the students worked individually to create their own interpretation and present it to the brand. Alpine then selected a combination of the two main ideas. Based on the two selected proposals, the young designers created the ‘A4810 Project by IED’, a lightweight yet powerful and agile concept car that offers pure driving pleasure,” said the brand’s CEO.

Antony Villain, design director at Alpine, spoke about the project result: “The collaboration with the Istituto Europeo di Design and its students has been a great experience. It was a ‘filter’ for us to see the brand through the eyes of the younger generation, as well as an opportunity to share our passion and give them good advice for a successful career in automotive design.”

Creation Process

The student team used digital tools to design the interior of the hydrogen-powered car through sketches, 3D models, renderings, animations, and HMI (Human Machine Interface) development.

By incorporating hydrogen power supply, they developed a complete concept that is almost ready to hit the roads of a much more sustainable future, with zero CO2 emissions.

Creation Process

A giant printer called the “Ferrari” of concrete has landed in Latin America and can already build a 120-square-meter house in just 48 hours, making the traditional construction site look like something from the last century.

Brazil will harvest a record crop of up to 357 million tons of grains, but it does not have the capacity to store a large part of it. The storage deficit has reached the highest level in history and is equivalent to almost the entire production of Argentina.

Four times faster than the Concorde, capable of taking passengers from New York to London in less than an hour at Mach 5.5, and with an engine that switches from turbojet to ramjet mid-flight at Mach 3.5, the Hermeus Quarterhorse went from paper to its first flight in just 19 months.

Under nearly 2 kilometers of ice in Antarctica, scientists have discovered an ancient landscape sculpted by rivers up to 60 million years ago, the size of Wales, preserved as a time capsule that could help predict the advance of ice towards the ocean.

She started by collecting oyster shells from restaurants and today she has already accumulated more than 10 tons to restore reefs, recover coastal habitats, and demonstrate how a common waste can become a tool for ocean conservation.

Bricklayers off the scaffolding? New system uses autonomous drones to position bricks and apply adhesive in the air, creating walls with two flying robots working as a team.

For the economist José Kobori, the USA gained a trump card to “blackmail” Brazil and undermine China’s influence by classifying the PCC and Comando Vermelho as terrorists, increasing the power to pressure companies, banks, and even Pix.

BYD Atto 2 DM-i flex prepares to debut in Brazil with a plug-in hybrid engine, national assembly in Camaçari, competitive pricing, and targets Creta and T-Cross in a battle that promises to heat up the compact SUV market.

Processors can become 1,000 times faster with a new device that uses light pulses, operates in 40 picoseconds, and reduces the heat that stalls data centers.

Noise in the sky frightened residents: NASA confirms that a meteor exploded over New England with a force equivalent to 230 tons of TNT

The paycheck that seemed impossible: São José employee receives R$ 7.94 after legal strike, while deductions by the City Hall affect over a thousand employees and become a target of inquiry in the City Council.
