Multi posesori de 159 care asteapta sa apara Giulia, vor opta probabil pentru alta marca in acest interval daca nu isi permit sa astepte.
Inclusiv politia italiana sau alti clienti de flote.
Din pacate Alfa instaureaza o noua traditie, dupa aceea a oportunitatilor pierdute prin prototipurile prezentate si netransformate in modele de serie, chiar si modelele de baza, pilonii, nu se mai construiesc : intai urmasul 166-lui, acum urmasul 159-lui... parca ne vedem peste cativa ani in care ne vom intreba (daca) ce va urma dupa Giulietta.
In alta ordine de idei, ultimele zvonuri arata ca un mic "jeep" va veni de la Fiat, si nu de la Alfa.

Fiat will build a 'baby' Jeep and Fiat derivative in Italy
Production of Jeep Patriot/Compass replacement remains in the U.S.
Fiat will build a "baby" Jeep in Italy to sell in Europe and possibly also the United States.
The Jeep will be smaller than the brand's current entry SUVs, the Patriot and Compass. The model will be produced in Fiat's home plant of Mirafiori in Turin, alongside a similar vehicle for Fiat brand that will replace the Sedici and an Alfa Romeo subcompact car for sale in Europe and North America.
Fiat had initially planned to build in Mirafiori the replacement for the Jeep Compass and Patriot and an Alfa SUV that would have shared systems and components with the Jeep model.
The change of strategy implies that the single model to replace the Patriot and Compass and its Alfa sibling will be manufactured in the United States. Jeep currently builds the Patriot and Compass in Belvidere, Illinois.
Fiat declined to give details on which models will be built in Mirafiori as part of a refurbishment of the factory, but the automaker is developing smaller models to meet an increasing demand downsized vehicles, especially in Europe.
Si o veste buna : Alfa ar lucra la un motor in patru cilindri turbo cu totul nou, care ar dezvolta 300 CP !
