If that is real, would it be a super compact type competitor to the Q2?
It could be anything besides an Alfa, how unpredictable they are, from the "33" to this one, but maybe in official photos it will improve and make sense...

 

[Mickaels]

It's real, same size as the Fiat 600e and Jeep Avenger.

 

[klier]

Looks like a Toyota?

 

[SCOTT27]

A rebodied DS 3 and 2008?
Could the Dodge Neon make a return as an SUV?

New 2024 Alfa Romeo small SUV shown in leaked images!

Firm's first EV will land at the beginning of 2024 as indirect Mito replacement, twinned with Jeep Avenger.

"Images of Alfa Romeo's small electric SUV have leaked ahead of its arrival at the beginning of 2024 when it will become the entry point to the firm’s new-era line-up.

Serving as an indirect replacement for the Mito supermini, it was originally known as the Brennero but is now confirmed to take another name into showrooms.

Images of Alfa Romeo's small electric SUV have leaked ahead of its arrival at the beginning of 2024 when it will become the entry point to the firm’s new-era line-up.

Serving as an indirect replacement for the Mito supermini, it was originally known as the Brennero but is now confirmed to take another name into showrooms.

Alfa Romeo declined to comment on the leaked images, which first appeared on Instagram and are now circulating more widely.

Due to measure around 4.1 metres long and 1.8 metres wide, the new EV will be the smallest Alfa Romeo since the Mito bowed out in 2019 - and the firm has hinted it will remain the smallest car in the range, due to dwindling demand for upmarket superminis.

Alfa Romeo’s head of products, Daniel Guzzafame, told Autocar: “The Mito will not be replaced as it was, but it will for sure be indirectly replaced by the B-segment SUV.

“The premium B-segment doesn’t exist, and around the world, we need to fill it. With an infinite amount of money, resources, time? Fantastic, I’ll do everything. But without that, I need to rationalise; I need to pick the segments that are actually relevant for the base customers in the premium segments.

“We considered a lot. We needed to decide whether to go two doors, four doors, so we made a decision, and the Mito will not be replaced as it was. But we will see. All of the world is evolving, small cars are becoming more important again.”

The new baby Alfa – set to be priced at around £35,000 – will arrive in line with the firm’s goal of attracting new buyers such as families and females as it looks to move away from being seen as just a “sporty brand” favoured by middle-aged men.

As for its design, it retains Alfa's characteristic V-shaped front grille and dons a bonnet and striking new headlight design similar to that of the recently revealed 33 Stradale limited-edition supercar.

Other defining features include a bluff ‘coda tronca’ rear end, short overhangs at each end and a bold stance - as per details earlier shared with Autocar about the future of Alfa Romeo.

Inside, the leaked images show a digital dashboard and instrument cluster similar to that seen on existing Alfa Romeo models, with a central readout showing how much of the car's power is going to each wheel."

same platform, but closer to the fiat 600e and avenger in size.

Took me a minute to realize I'm not looking at a Renault. Minus the triangle Front is 100% Renault up to the windshield and front doors... rest looks like an MG or Ssangyoung.

They made a very bad mistake with this one.

 

[tristatez28lt1]

Why? PSA, aeh I mean Stellantis doesn't car about the Alfa brand really they need to make money and cut costs.

rather than manke a general statement, back it up with why, why is it a mistake?

It comes to supplant the Mito, whether you like it or not, it was a full Alfa and even with signs of a very unique and quite special icon, in its translation into an SUV as the market dictates it does not seem more than a rebadged Jeep or worse as indeterminate as a Chinese, the front seems presented by students 90% confused 10% Alfa, the same as the Dodge "Tonale" but in reverse.

My impression is that it will fulfill its function and nothing more without pain or glory.

Full alfa? Front wheel drive, platform shared with grande punto.

Rebadge would be tonale and hornet, this is not a rebadge, as most the body panels are different.

It looks quite good, Alfa needs this car to succeed and bring the brand up.

I was talking more about the design than anything, I don't see much point in talking too much about the more or less sporty platform when it comes to a Mini SUV...

Rebadge would be tonale and hornet, this is not a rebadge, as most the body panels are different.

I was speaking figuratively more than anything.
This Alfa doesn't mean anything to me, I don't see it as special in the least, like it was a nice little Jeep.

 

[dalab]

Same example of situation but from this, there is no clear brand value in its lines, only the entry into a new segment without much research and design work, I would almost say that without caring about the issue.

(by the way, it's a Lexus ).-

With new EV platforms you can plonk anything on top. calling it rebodied is disingenuous.
