Alfa Romeo considering new entry-level coupe
Alfa Romeo is reportedly seriously considering developing an all-new "baby Alfa," to slot into the model lineup below the upcoming 147 replacement.Targeted at young buyers, the car would be a (relatively) bargain-priced 2+2 or hatchback, possibly based on Fiat's new Grande Punto FWD platform. A go/no-go decision on the project is expected this fall.
Italiaspeed also reports that a new coachbuilt Alfa Romeo is being developed by Zagato for the upper end of the company's lineup.
