Alpha Motor Corporation is taking pre-orders for a new car unlike any others it has revealed so far. Dubbed the Montage Coupe, it pays homage to the classic British sports cars of the 1950s and comes in a strictly limited series priced from $499,000.
The Montage relies on just one electric motor rated at 204 PS (201 hp / 150 kW), driving the rear wheels through a single-reduction gearbox. The battery capacity is not stated, but Alpha says it is a custom-made lithium-ion battery pack capable of 400 km (248 miles) of range or close to that.
Aside from only two seats, the cabin offers a retro dashboard featuring large analog gauges encased with chrome bezels. The center console houses large air vents also trimmed with chrome and a classic radio. Modern touches, such as a digital odometer and a high-end audio system, dilute the vintage atmosphere to a certain degree.
