New Alpine Market

There are many 2022 Alpines specced by dealers looking to find homes in the next couple of months. Still many 2021 cars for sale and demonstrators sticking. 63 new and used cars on Autotrader (and increasing) which is massive in relation to the number of annual registrations.

Cars to order are available in much quicker than before.

Many other brands have no new cars available for many months and some not until 2023.

Seems like supply is far outstripping demand at the moment or am I missing something?

Agree on used but 38 are brand new. Seems way too high. Were there not only around 200 new cars registered in 2021 including dealer demonstrators?

So there are approximately 4 new cars per dealer awaiting a home before the 2022 models arrive?

I think the 2022 “aero” models are expected in dealers mid February. I’d expect any unsold current stock will be used as demo cars and then sold as used.

Perhaps they have just become to expensive...

The S is, for sure. And then you have the Emira coming soon, which is bound to take sales

Some will doubtless have placed a deposit on an Emira and are waiting to see if it lives up to the hype, and how the delivery times are panning out. Without question it will take some sales from the A110, but it remains to be seen quite how many.

Enjoy, nice car. I pass Orpington Alpine regularly so have seen your car on the forecourt.
