Alfa Romeo Alfetta (render)
There have been multiple reports
saying that the Italians were indeed going to further expand the brand's range
with a mid-size sedan, which could revive the Alfetta nameplate.
The new model would share the same RWD platform with
the Giulia and the Stelvio SUV, as well as most of the powertrains, including
the 2.9-liter biturbo V6 used in the Quadrifoglio. Given that Alfa Romeo is
going to officially jump on the ‘electrification’ bandwagon starting 2018, it’s
possible for the new Alfetta to be the first model to benefit from the new
hybrid powertrains, too.
The render we have here uses the styling elements
first introduced in the Giulia, and the end result is both muscular and elegant
despite the larger dimensions of the body. If the saloon eventually gets the
green light, it will be interesting to see how Alfa Romeo positions it in the
market, given that sister company Maserati is already present in the segment
with the Ghibli.
