3315507 - Introduction - FITTINGS

The style of the vehicle echoes the design of the 164.The aim of the Alfa Romeo stylists has been to produce a saloon which is both elegant and sporty at the same time.The proportions are those of a coupé: a very large bonnet, a balanced passenger compartment, a compact, fleeting tail, a vehicle which is well positioned on the ground.

The main features can be summarized as follows:

  • The front section features the front shield which is in the centre of the two "moustaches", elements which incorporate the headlamps, dimensionally contained, but which express the technology with which they are constructed.
  • The V shaped bonnet lid stems from the shield and connects with the side panels.
  • Bumpers integrated in the bodywork.
  • High panel surface area compared with the reduced glazed surface area to increase the sports image.
  • Wheel arch areas project to underline the stability of the vehicle on the road.
  • Very restrained tail, fleeting and tapered.
  • Rear number plate in the bumper.
  • Division of the internal spaces between the driver, front passenger and rear passengers.
  • Personalized, linked internal lines.
  • Seats designed to a high standard and the wraparound nature allows safe and comfortable sports driving.
