New Alfa Romeo CEO Excited for the Brand's Future

With its small yet mighty lineup, Alfa Romeo has crafted a devoted following on the roads of South Carolina. In 2021, the brand plans to build on this success to achieve a stronger future. The man responsible for overseeing the brand's 21st century revitalization is its new CEO, Jean-Philippe Imparato. Imparato's new vision for Alfa Romeo involves new vehicles, new capabilities and new ways for Greenville drivers to enjoy the finest in Italian design.

 At Benson Alfa Romeo, we believe that our legacy of providing stylish, powerful Italian vehicles helps lead us to a future of sustained success. Our vehicles incorporate exciting innovations while retaining the Italian driving experience at their core. And while cars themselves evolve, the hometown service and honest prices that are our foundation will continue to exist at the heart of everything we do. Contact us for details.

New Models

Perhaps the most important part of Alfa Romeo's future is the list of new models the automaker will introduce over the next few years. These additions will start with the Tonale plug-in hybrid compact crossover. Smaller than the Stelvio, the Tonale is perfect for Alfa Romeo buyers seeking a vehicle in this wildly popular segment. Beyond the Tonale, Alfa Romeo plans to add a new fully electric subcompact crossover.

Alfa Romeo also has exciting plans in store for its current models. Starting with the two new crossovers, the brand will eventually offer electrified vehicles throughout its entire lineup. Along with their environmental benefits, electric vehicles boast significant performance capabilities. Thus, drivers seeking electric vehicles will eventually have the option to experience the pairing of electric vehicle performance and Alfa Romeo style. 

New Ideas

While these new models provide Alfa Romeo drivers exciting new choices, they provide the brand itself with an opportunity. The new models allow Alfa Romeo to experiment with innovative ways to deliver the brand's traditional Italian driving experience.

One of the brand's most significant changes is the replacement of its current Giorgio platform with the all-new STLA Large design template. With STLA Large, Charlotte-area drivers seeking an exciting, distinctive electric vehicle can find it in an Alfa Romeo. While popular with many consumers, the Giorgio platform is notoriously difficult to use on electric vehicles. STLA Large also allows Alfa Romeo to take advantages of opportunities through its membership in the Stellantis organization to increase efficiencies across the development cycle.

Yet perhaps the best part is that while Alfa Romeo eagerly leaps into the future, the brand always keeps an eye on the traditions that first made it great. Imparato is showing this attention to history in many different ways. For instance, many of Imparato's key managers and design executives are from Italy and boast significant experience in the auto industry. And Alfa Romeo's continued emphasis on quality design and materials continue to help the company stay out ahead of its more anodyne German competitors.

 

New Future

With a long career in the European automotive industry, Imparato has the experience needed to move Alfa Romeo to an even stronger future. New model and powertrain options will provide more choice for Greenville consumers while preserving the brand's distinctive performance. And by offering electric versions of every vehicle, Alfa Romeo will mark its place as a modern automotive brand delivering deep passion, unique flair and an unforgettable driving experience to the daily commute.
