The Alpine F1 team, formerly known as Renault, went through a major rebranding phase in 2020 under the ambitious Renaulution strategic plan. The team not only entered the 2021 season with a fresh label but there was also a hierarchical shift in management. Interestingly, after a year of this monumental shift, Alpine have announced impressive growth in sales performance.

Moreover, the performance on the F1 track helped the brand to facilitate their market dominance. The duo of Esteban Ocon and Fernando Alonso put forth some highly impressive performances throughout the 22-race stint in 2021. Ocon listed himself as a Grand Prix winner, a remarkable feat for the young Frenchman.

Interestingly, the event which invited the most traction was Alonso’s 98th podium in the Qatar GP. And who can forget the stellar defense from Alonso against Lewis Hamilton during the Hungarian GP. All of this combined, the first phase of Renaulution strategic plan was highly successful for the French team.

Alpine recorded vigorous growth in sales in 2021

The first phase (2021-23) of the ambitious plan is all about resurrection. In the words of Groupe Renault CEO Luca de Meo, “It will be clearly about cost reduction, margin, and cash generation.” The brand was firmly on track in 2021, and the plan enabled Alpine to create a new business unit with the goal of boosting sales by harnessing its powerful image and developing internationally.

As per the Alpine media website, In the first year after announcing the Renaulution strategic plan, sales volume witnessed a rise of 74%, selling 2659 units in 2021. Moreover, a boost in sales of over 117% was recorded in France.
