Alfa Romeo pays homage to Chantilly concours

Alfa Romeo has paid homage to the Chantilly Arts and Elegance Richard Mille by presenting three models at the concours event.

On display was the new Alfa Romeo 33 Stradale (marking its first French debut), the 33 Spider Cuneo style prototype from 1971, as well as the new Junior crossover. The three cars were displayed ahead of the jardin a la francaise, one of the major attractions at the Chateau de Chantilly.

The new 33 Stradale was created at the newly founded Alfa Romeo 'Bottega', where the brand's designers, engineers and historians first met the 33 buyers to make a joint decision on their ideal configuration, exactly the same way as in Renaissance artisan boutiques, in the workshops of renowned Italian coachbuilders in the 20^th century, when Alfa Romeo modelled its creations with the collaboration of these entities, all unique in the world.

Also featuring at the French event was the Alfa Romeo Junior, described as combining a captivating style with the most advanced technology in terms of comfort, connectivity, and driving dynamics the brand has to offer. The Junior is lineup internationally starts with the 134bhp mild hybrid model, although customers can also opt for a 154bhp electric Junior Speciale. The firm is also set to add to this lineup a new, 276bhp Junior Veloce.
