2010 Alfa Romeo TZ3 Corsa - aerodynamic design
Zagato Atelier has announced the launch of the Alfa Romeo TZ3 Corsa Concours d’Elegance Villa d’Este XII. Corsa Design TZ3 is not a drill. Not only drawing on 90 years of collaboration between the two brands, not only in Milan shared between Alfa Romeo and Zagato. Corsa TZ3 is a race car, in honor of 100 years of the race and victory in the 20th century as a whole.
It celebrates the men and machines of Alfa Romeo Zagato tradition in general. Scuderia Ferrari of 20 and 30, Alfa Corse from the 40s and 50s, Autodelta 60’s and 70’s with the latest Zagato Ferrari in the 80’s and 90’s.
Given this emotional race, the TZ3 Corsa chassis is based on carbon mono-hull shaped fiber tube combined with a tubular chassis and aluminum body light. It offers technical partner as OMP and Pirelli.

Alfa Romeo Gives MiTo A New 1.3 L Diesel

alfa-romeo-mito-new-13-l-diesel1
The night before the 152nd  birthday of diesel guru Rudolf Diesel’s 152nd birthday, Alfa Romeo has announced a new diesel engine for its MiTo compact hatchback line. Developed by Fiat, Alfa Romeo’s parent company, the new 1.3-liter JTDM II turbodiesel gulps down fuel at a rate of just 55 mpg in the U.S. combined cycle.
The four-cylinder churns out just 95 horsepower, although its 148 lb-ft. of torque at a low 1,500 rpm helps it hit 62 mph in a 11.6 seconds. Emissions are decreased to just 112 g/km of CO2 thanks to its second-generation turbocharger, an advanced diesel particulate filter and start-stop technology. These advances help it meet stern Euro 5 emissions standards.
The 1.3-liter MiTo diesel will be available in three trim levels in most European markets: Turismo, Lusso and Veloce.

2011 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Specifications

Add captio
As a sedan, the 3rd generation Alfa Romeo Giulietta for the 2011 model year is a fantastic ride for a sedan that lives up to the Alfa Romeo name. A front-wheel drive model, the dynamics of the new Giulietta are superb as well as the interior features and standard equipment offered. Fans of Alfa Romeo and followers of the Giulietta may be looking for a new facelift and redesign, but they’ll have to wait a few years longer, as the next overhaul isn’t due until the 2014 model year.

Specifications

  • Pricing: Base price of just under $28,000
  • Engine: Five engine choices including a 1.4-liter or turbo that puts out 120 or 170 horsepower as well as two diesel options.
  • Transmission: The Giulietta features an all-new 6-speed three-shaft gearbox.

Exterior Features

The 2011 Alfa Romeo Giulietta’s wheelbase is 8.6 feet sporting light lines and a sleek, distinctly European exterior styling. The well-known Alfa Romeo trident adorns the front above the distinctive triangular grille. Buyers will be able to choose between a comfort or sport chassis and each will have a few different trim levels and powertrain options. The LED headlight and taillight accents are stylishly and uniquely designed.

Interior Features

The new Giulietta offers plenty of space in its well-accented interior, with luxury features like leather seating, Bluetooth and hard-drive based navigation aplenty to make for a more enjoyable experience. Tilt and telescoping steering wheel and heated front seats for both driver and passenger are additional touches that it may be difficult to find on other sedans in the same class and price range without paying a hefty premium. The interior cabin is incredibly quiet, at highway speeds indicating the car’s precise and well-fitted design.

Performance

The new Alfa Romeo Giulietta offers a surprisingly comfortable ride, which, for those used to the harsher, but more precise handling of an Alfa Romeo may come as something of a surprise. A DNA dynamic mode makes for a sportier ride, but the 2012 Giulietta still feels like a comfortable family sedan.

Competition for the 2011 Alfa Romeo Giulietta

Competition for the 2011 Alfa Romeo Giulietta includes:
  • Ford Focus
  • Hyundai Elantra
  • Honda Accord
The Ford Focus is less expensive and it shows through and through, though, however Ford’s innovative Sync system and the fuel economy are significant plusses for this American classic. Both the Hyundai Elantra and the Honda Accord offer superior quality and reputation for reliability all around.

Alfa Romeo 8C Spider powertrain

The powertrain and simply about every last item else is remainder from the roadster. Underhood is the Ferrari outlined and constructed 4. 7 liter V 8 offered in all current Maseratis. It's sponsored by the same six speed autoclutch manual transaxle that Maserati utilized to call Cambiocorsa. Capacity is 450 stallions at 7000 revs, its 354 pound feet torque peak appears at 4750, and redline is 7500 rpm. The motor sits completely behind of the front hub, and the trans is forward of the rear diff, so the weight of the powertrain is moved inside the wheelbase. Weight offset is 50/50. The most gigantic useful divergence is that the Spider gets standard carbon clay brake rotors, something not open optional or variously on the roadster. An additional one of a kind item is the light yet robust composite windshield outline. To the greatest of our knowledge, its the first such piece utilized on a handling convertible.

Alfa Romeo Sport Cars Autodelta Alfa Romeo 8C Competizione

The Performance Car Show that will take place in Birmingham, UK, 14-17 January 2010, Autodelta will unveil the world’s first tuned Alfa Romeo 8C Competizione. Alfa Romeo’s awesome Alfa 8C Competizione supercar has scooped the award for Best Design of the Year in Auto Express’s 2008 New Car Honours.
The announcement came after more than 4000 Auto Express readers voted in the category, putting the Italian 4.7 V8 head and shoulders above its rivals.  Auto Express’s judging panel agreed with their verdict.
Editor of Auto Express, David Johns, said: “Choosing the best designed cars of the year is never easy, so we turned to the experts for help – Auto Express readers.  Only one car was ever going to win – Alfa Romeo’s  Sport Cars 8C Competizione simply blew the opposition away.”

Marketing Director of Alfa Romeo UK, Nicholas Bernard, added: “It’s fabulous to know that this supercar has stirred the emotions and unified car fans across the UK.  It is the epitome of the Alfa Romeo Sport Cars marque and will provide the design inspiration for future models.”
The 4.7-liter V8 engine in the car masterpiece is obviously a slightly higher performance using a new engine management software. The engine develops 444 hp at its plant stock and Autodelta incarnation promises to 17 more to offer. Technical refinements to the chassis of the car and the suspension was also promised, but no further details were released by the company.
Few details are known at this point, but a remapped ECU should squeeze out a modest 17 horsepower boost from the stock 444-hp, 4.7-liter Ferrari-developed V8. Alfa Romeo Sport Cars Autodelta Alfa Romeo 8C Competizione is also working on fine-tuning the chassis, taking their 8C around some of the finest tracks in Europe to get it just right.
