A290_β, a new name in pure Alpine spirit

The A290_β (pronounced "beta") follows the Alpine brand naming strategy of an A followed by three digits. The first number refers to the size of the vehicle. The “90” is specific to the brand's multi-purpose sports vehicles, known as “life-style”, while the purely sports vehicles have the number “10”. The “β” refers to the beta test used in the software world, the test version, just before the final version.
