All new Alfa Romeo Milano is revealed earlier than expected thanks to the guy who took this spyshots with his mobile phone and posted them on Facebook! Milano will replace the Alfa 147 and it was expected to be a buffed up Alfa MiTo, but form what we see in these pictures it just so isn’t!
Milano features a totally new design. Of course you can still notice it’s an Alfa Romeo from a mile away but it does not share many of its styling cues with other models. Which is a good job because, while remaining pretty artistic and elegant, it’s not ugly like the MiTo! In comparison to other cars in this segment, it is actually swell! That unique C-pillar, which it shares with 147, alone is enough reason for taking this car over Astra or Focus!
Alfa Romeo Milano will be available with the current range of engines Alfa uses (save the V8 of course! probably the 1.4 and 1.7 for petrol models), and then a hot GTA version might come out later on. As you know Alfa Romeo is not a very reputaed brand in terms of reliability or driving qualities, but you buy an Alfa with your heart, not your brain. It’s one of the coolest cars to be seen in!
