Passion, expressiveness, and emotional plasticity of lines - that's how the world describes Alfa Romeo. For over a hundred years, the brand has been creating cars that captivate not only with their dynamics but also with their aesthetics. Each model is a work of art on four wheels, where technology merges with the emotionality of design. We present ten cars that have made Alfa Romeo an icon of style.
Alfa Romeo 8C 2900B Lungo Spider (1938)
A pre-war legend and the epitome of Art Deco. The coupes and roadsters by Touring Superleggera were distinguished by a long hood, smooth fenders, and a chrome grille. The 2.9-liter supercharged engine is a tribute to its racing origins. Essentially, it's a moving sculpture that became a symbol of the era of luxurious grand tours.
Alfa Romeo 6C 2500 Villa d'Este (1949)
The car that got its name thanks to a victory at the famous Concorso d'Eleganza Villa d'Este. Aluminum body, elegant profile, and the first touches of post-war elegance. The interior is leather and wood, like the cabin of an expensive yacht. Beauty backed by a 2.5-liter six-cylinder engine.
Alfa Romeo Disco Volante (1952)
"Flying saucer" - that's how futuristic the design of the experimental coupe was. Aerodynamics without sharp corners, an aluminum body, and shapes that were ahead of their time. Disco Volante has forever remained an example of Alfa Romeo's bold look into the future.
Alfa Romeo Giulietta Sprint Speciale (1957)
Franco Scaglione from Bertone was inspired by aviation: elongated nose, low roof, rear lighting in the shape of "wings." The proportions of the coupe still look almost perfect. It's a small sports art object in which beauty combines with a light character.
Alfa Romeo Spider Duetto (1966)
Italian romance on the screen - the car gained worldwide fame thanks to the film "The Graduate." Soft top, chrome, the famous "cut-off" rear - Pininfarina's design became a symbol of freedom and the youth of the sixties. The Spider gave the world the image of an "eternally young" roadster.
Alfa Romeo 33 Stradale (1967)
It is called the most beautiful car of all time. 33 Stradale is handmade, only 18 copies. Gullwing doors, transparent dome, racing proportions - absolute harmony of technology and art. Franco Scaglione created a template for all the supercars that would appear later.
Alfa Romeo Montreal (1970)
A grand tourer with the character of a rebel. Marcello Gandini (Bertone) gave the model unique "gills" on the headlights and a relief hood. The appearance of the Montreal still causes controversy among designers - that's why it became iconic.
Alfa Romeo 164 Proteo (1987)
A prototype that predicted the style of the 1990s. Wedge-shaped body, integrated headlights, clean aerodynamic lines - Pininfarina created a sedan with a pronounced dynamic appearance. The simplified production 164 still inherited the DNA of the concept.
Alfa Romeo 8C Competizione (2007)
Return to the supercar club. Wolfgang Egger's masterpiece: classic Gran Turismo proportions, a "shield" on the nose, rounded lights, and a carbon body. Under the hood is a ferocious V8 Maserati. The 8C made the world talk about Alfa Romeo design with delight again.
Alfa Romeo Giulia Quadrifoglio (2016)
A modern sports sedan created for emotions. Powerful shapes, aggressive aerodynamic body kit, diffuser, four exhausts - everything speaks of proximity to motorsport. This is a car that proved that even in the era of CFD calculations, it is possible to preserve the Italian expressiveness of lines.
Alfa Romeo is a design that goes beyond the rational. Each model is like a work of art, where beauty becomes an integral part of speed.
And as long as cars with the four-leaf clover Quadrifoglio appear on the roads, the Italian school of style will have a living heart.
