Alfasud
Alfasud
The SE was replaced by the Alfasud L (Lusso) model introduced at the Bruxelles Motor Show in January. Recognizable by its bumper overriders and chrome strips on the door sills and on the tail, the Lusso is better appointed than the standard Alfasud (now known as "normale"), with such features as cloth upholstery, headrests, padded dashboard with glove compartment and optional tachometer.
A three-door estate model called the Alfasud Giardinetta was introduced in May. It has the same equipment of the Alfasud "L".

ALFASUD TI £1,718
After the four-door family saloon with the eager Alfa character comes a two-door sports saloon. Spoilers at front and rear improve airflow and road grip; there are four headlamps and special wheel trim. New camshaft and twin-choke carburetter boost the power of the flat four engine and the gearbox has five speeds. The special interior includes extra instruments, reclining seats with head restraints.
ALFASUD ESTATE Price to be announced
Latest Alfasud is the useful and economical three-door estate, powered by the same type of flat-four engine as the saloon model. The new car is only 393.5 cm long, yet with folding rear seat has maximum internal dimensions of 135 x 82 x 137.5 cm (width x height x depth). With rear seat erect the Alfasud estate becomes a five-seater. Like the four-door saloon and two-door 'TI' models, the Estate has front-wheel drive, and the new-type cylinder-heads provide more low and medium-speed power. Claimed fuel consumption is 33 mpg at 60 mph.

Alfasud L in Brussels.
Alfasud L
At the Brussels Motor Show Alfa Romeo introduced the 1,594 cc Alfetta 1.6 base model, easily recognizable by its single, larger round front headlights. Meanwhile, the 1.8-litre Alfetta was rebadged Alfetta 1.8 and a few months later mildly restyled, further set apart from the 1.6 by a new grille with a wider central shield and horizontal chrome bars. Engines in both models are Alfa Romeo Twin Cams, with two overhead camshafts, 8-valves and two double-barrel carburettors.
Alfetta 1.6 at Brussels Motor Show
ALFETTA 1.6 £2,948
The famous Italian manufacturer's smaller-capacity version of the lively four-door saloon has a 1573 cc twin overhead camshaft engine instead of the 1.8-litre motor which powers the normal Alfetta. Only external difference is the two-headlight equipment instead of the four lamps that distinguish the 1.8-litre models which stay in production. The 1.6 Alfetta is available with cloth or PVC trim, and has the five-speed gearbox mounted at the rear on the de Dion rear axle. The layout results in a balanced weight distribution and fine handling.

ALFA ROMEO ALFETTA GT £3,000 approx.
Alfa Romeos are designed by engineers who understand about fast motoring, so the height of the driving seat and the height of the steering wheel are adjustable. The tachometer is in a separate housing right in front of the driver and the gearbox has five speeds to ensure economical fast cruising. Clutch, gearbox and differential are grouped at the rear to give optimum weight distribution for quick cornering.
