New pics released of Porsche Cayman rival's naked panels

# data.attributes.body.value
New pics of Alpine's sportscar have been revealed, showing off the mid-engined car's naked aluminium body.

These pics were taken inside the Alpine department at the Dieppe factory, and shows off the fact that the new Porsche Cayman rival - which is nearly, nearly here - will use an aluminium chassis to house the engine, gearbox and suspension.

Why aluminium? Well, why not? We're told the Alpine's base has been engineered for "flawless agility", and certainly aluminium is lighter and should hopefully correspond to something rather fast, and rather pointy. Excite.

There's not much else to go on, but we already know that the new Alpine sportscar will feature a turbocharged four-cylinder engine with around 250bhp (more for any hardcore versions, we hope), a 0-62mph time of less than 4.5 seconds and a low kerb weight of around 1,100kg. That'll be thanks all the aluminium, no doubt.

“Weight saving and agility are valued over pure power,” assures Alpine. We’re even promised a chassis that’ll offer up a “playful personality”; playful in the sideways sense, not playful in the puppy-accidentally-biting-off-your-hand sense.

We also know prices for the 'Premiere Edition' will be between £46k to £50k, though the standard car will be cheaper. For that outlay, we're promised lots of aluminium (duh), carbon, TFT instruments and "sensuous and technical" quilted leather seats. Oh, and that it'll do nice skids on a wet surface.

More as we get it...
