The Alfa Romeo 8C Competizione is receiving a makeover from Swiss tuner Officine Fioravanti, with upgrades including a new six-speed gated manual transmission and carbon ceramic brakes. This modification aims to address the limitations of the original automated sequential gearbox and enhance the performance of the vehicle.
Introducing the Milano EV by Alfa Romeo, a name embroiled in controversy as Italy opposes its usage due to production in Poland. This dispute stems from strict regulations prohibiting Italian-sounding names for products made abroad. Despite marketing investments, a name change post-launch could prove costly for the Stellantis-owned brand.
Alfa Romeo debuts Milano, its first electric car, featuring options for electric and internal combustion engines. The Veloce flagship EV leads with 237 horsepower. Positioned as an entry-level crossover, Milano offers a sleek design, digital instrument cluster, and four-wheel drive. Scheduled for European release, no North American launch is planned.
