At the end of the Second World War the production intensifies and Alpino starts spreading rapidly, thanks to the reputation of being virtually indestructible, and models remaining without changes until 1948.
Then they produced different versions, the S48cc (70 kilometers with a liter of fuel, speed of 40km/h), the ST model of 63cc and the model R of 48 cc. Also in 1948 the Motobi builds the Piuma moped with a 60cc engine, and a bike with a 98cc engine. Production in 1951 included the mopeds R48, C48 and F48. It is also realized a 125cc bike, derived from the previous 98cc model, and offered the F48 scooter (48.9cc), from the frame very original. The Alpine range of models is extended in 1952 with new versions of the 125cc bike. In the same year a Alpine 75cc, equipped with special fairing exceeds km run on the speed of 128km/h, and the team Perales, created by the dealers of Alpine Motobi for Argentina, using a 75cc engine on a moped with a fairing that had a strange egg shape and beat the world record in miles on a flying start, with a speed of 92.180km/h, and the World of Kilometers at a speed of 129km/h. Other records are achieved with an Alpine 50 to reach a maximum speed of 82.216km/h. During these attempts they were also testing a new 75cc Alpine bike at Monza.

The moped models are the 75 and 125cc. Production at Alpine in 1954 and 1955 was almost exclusively used the two-stroke engines, a four-stroke engine equips the only bike 175cc 4T of 173.6 (speed of 100km/h). The racing is prepared a 74cc motorcycle that can reach speeds of 120km/h. In 1956 produced a scooter 75cc and 125cc bike is sold in two versions.
