Alfa Romeo is very active in the food segment B-SUV; after the debut of Tonalas well as first Alfa hybrid modelis finalizing the launch of a new B-SUV with electric motor. It represents the first Biscione model under the leadership of the group Stellantis and the first 100% electric, scheduled to arrive in the first half of 2024. The new model will be called Milan and not Brenner, as initially hypothesized. The official presentation is scheduled for April 10, 2024 in the Lombardy capital.
Alfa Romeo Milan
The first electric car Alfa Romeo will be called Milan in homage to the city where Biscione was born June 24, 1910. The Alfa Romeo coat of arms, since 1910, represents two distinctive symbols of Milan: the cross, historical symbol of the city, and the snake, emblem of the Visconti noble house.
The name “Milano” was present in the Alfa Romeo logo for over 60 years (1910-1972), initially accompanied by the acronym “ALPHA” (Anonima Lombarda Fabbrica Automobili) until 1918, and subsequently since “ALFA ROMEO” from 1919 onwards.
Alfa Romeo B-SUV, preview, what it will be like
The first images of the long-awaited electric Alfa Romeo have leaked on Instagram and provide a preview of the B-SUV design. Unlike larger Alfa Romeo SUVs, this model does not appear to be a simple scaled-down version, measuring approximately 4.2 meters.
The new front features the Biscione symbol in format three-dimensional and a reinterpretation of the classic trilobe typical of Alfa.
LED headlights are thin and divided on two levels. The light signature is created by the daytime running lights on three stripes upper ones and a lower one, although it may not be definitive, given that it is a concept. Furthermore, the license plate appears to be positioned centrally.
The side has a linear design with traditional handles on the front doors and “hidden” handles in the upper window trim, recalling elements of some past Alfa Romeo models.
Engine, battery and range of the electric Alfa Romeo
The new Alfa Romeo B-SUV is the first electric model of the history of the Biscione. The merger that created Stellantis opened up new technological opportunities, with Alfa Romeo able to take advantage of the E-CMP multi-energy platform of the former Groupe PSA, shared with Jeep Avenger, Fiat 600, DS 3 E-Tense, Peugeot e-2008 And Opel Mokka.
Similar to the Jeep Avenger and the Fiat 600, the vehicle could boast an electric motor from 156 HP and 260 Nmpowered by a 54 kWh lithium battery which operates at 400 Volts. It will probably also have a thermal unit 1.2 hybrid with 136 HP with e-Dct 6 o dual clutch automatic transmission 1.2 liter turbo petrol with a power of 100 HP. From the photo it is also clear that it will benefit from an architecture 4×4 full electric.
Alfa Romeo Milano development tests
The development of the Milano is in the final stages of validation at the Stellantis track Balocco. A team of Italian engineers is perfecting the vehicle with a view to starting series production. The technicians involved have contributed to projects such as Giulia And Stelvio Quadrifogliothe 8C Competitionthe 4C and the new 33 Stradale. The Italian brand's ambitious goal is to create an SUV with “best-in-class handling and driving dynamics.”
The fine-tuning of the Milan, led by Domenico Bagnasco, aims for the typical excellence of Alfa Romeo. Focusing on distinctive driving dynamics, the team specifically intervenes on the suspension to ensure direct and precise steering when cornering.
Stefano Ceredahead of the project, is known for his key role in Alfa Romeo projects, while Luigi Domenichelli manages the technical development of the vehicle with the aim of ensuring high-level performance, durability and comfort, together with cutting-edge ergonomics .
What is the name of the electric Alfa Romeo, when it arrives
The official name of the new Alfa Romeo model is Milan. The official presentation has been scheduled for April 10, 2024, right in the city of Milan. Despite being named after the Lombard capital, the Milano will be produced in Polandin the establishment of Tychywhere Stellantis already produces the Jeep Avenger and the Fiat 600. The price will exceed 40,000 euroswith the possible hybrid version which will cost less.
The first Sport Urban Vehicle in Alfa Romeo's history will in fact be both electric and hybrid, while in 2025 the first Alfa Romeo vehicle sold exclusively in a 100% electric version will be presented.
