ALPINE® A110 High-Efficiency Canard System

Product information "ALPINE® A110 High-Efficiency Canard System"

Engineered specifically for the front aerodynamic envelope of the mid-engine Alpine A110 platform, these dive planes generate controlled high-energy vortices to manage turbulent airflow around the front wheel arches. Positioned along the outer perimeters of the front bumper, they manipulate high-velocity airflow to produce targeted front-axle downforce, sharpening turn-in response, enhancing steering precision, and eliminating high-speed understeer to complement the car's agile chassis dynamics.

Manufactured via Industrial Laser Powder Bed Fusion (L-PBF) using a motorsport-grade, carbon-reinforced thermoplastic matrix, these canards are built to withstand the extreme mechanical loads and punishing environments of competitive track driving. The laser-sintered polymer structure delivers exceptional impact resistance against high-velocity tire debris and gravel strikes, paired with high thermal stability near elevated heat sources. Processed through post-sinter thermal pressure curing and a vapor-smoothed surface treatment, the canard profiles preserve clean airflow delivery to downstream aero components while maintaining an unyielding structural footprint under peak downforce loads.
