With its mean stance and aggressive curves, this newest Alfa Romeo could be one of the models to hit our shores. Apparently, and this is news to me, Alfa Romeo is going to be making a return to the North American market in the near future.
I don’t know what it is about their cars, probably the grill, and the performance, and their overall appearance, regardless, I want one. The name, Mi.To comes from the two designers for Alfa Romeo, their names being Milan and Turin.
You’ll be able to pick up the 13.3 foot long and 4.7 foot tall vehicle in its current markets some time after July when production of the model begins. You’ll have your choice of gasoline or diesel, all of them are turbo charged, and the horsepower across the 4 engine choices will range from 90 to 155, which I am sure would pull a premium in this quaint little car.

hmmm. alfa’s long-awaited return to the US has been well established and quite public for some time now. And Milan & Turn are no designers… they are names of two towns in Italy tied to the rich Alfa Romeo history. Old alfas (between 1965 and 1995) did not hold their value well. I’ve owned plenty. But their new cars are derived from the latest technology and manufacturing processes. They get fine quality reviews throughout Europe. These new models coming state-side should be high quality, fun to drive, and of course: beautiful.
