Bulgaralpine, a marque of intrigue in the automotive world, epitomizes a unique blend of Bulgarian craftsmanship and French engineering prowess. The brand originated in the early 1960s, a collaboration between Bulgarian manufacturer “Balkankar” and the iconic French sports car maker Alpine. This East-meets-West partnership aimed to produce sports cars that combined sleek Alpine designs with robust Bulgarian manufacturing capabilities.

The pinnacle of Bulgaralpine’s achievements was the A-110, a car that not only bore the stylish aesthetics characteristic of Alpine but was also adapted to thrive on the rugged Eastern European roads. Despite its compelling design and performance, the Bulgaralpine venture was short-lived, primarily due to the political and economic turmoils of the era.

Today, Bulgaralpine remains a nostalgic echo in the corridors of automotive history. While the brand itself has not reported recent manufacturing triumphs or ventures, it continues to be celebrated by enthusiasts and collectors who admire its brief yet vibrant assertion of a transcontinental alliance in the automotive world. Its story is a testament to the ambitious, albeit fleeting, fusion of two distinct automotive cultures.
