Alfa Romeo Offer SUV Expects to Stimulate Sales
After years of selling niche vehicles like the Spider, Brera, and GT, Alfa Romeo is planning to add an SUV to its lineup (Autocar reports). The idea of an Alfa-branded SUV isn’t new though, dating back to at least 2003 with the Kamal concept. But the plan to turn Alfa into a volume manufacturer, hatched by Fiat CEO Sergio Marchionne, is what really pushed the idea into reality. With an SUV in its lineup, Alfa will be better equipped to compete with the likes of BMW, Audi, and Mercedes-Benz. Parent-company Fiat expects 500,000 Alfa sales per year by 2014, adding an SUV could be vital to the brand’s future success, especially with the brand planning to reenter the U.S. market by 2013.
The C-SUV’s underpinnings, Fiat’s new Compact Plus Global Modular Architecture, will support four-wheel-drive and Fiat engineers say that the chassis can be tuned to better suit Alfa’s sporty nature, despite being a modular platform. According to Autocar, the C-SUV’s off-road capabilities will be similar to that of the Euro-market Nissan Qashqai, a relative of the U.S.-market Rogue. Autocar also speculates that the C-SUV will receive similar engines to those used in the Guilia, including a 1.8-liter direct-injected gasoline I-4 with Fiat’s Multiair 2 technology, producing around 200 hp and a 140-hp 2.0-liter diesel engine featuring Multijet and Multiair technologies. Autocar also believes a 273-hp 3.3-liter version of Chrysler’s Pentastar V-6 might be used in the range-topping model, while a 3.0-liter diesel V-6 producing anywhere from 220 to 250 hp could be used in the higher-end diesel models.
Based on a stretched Giulia platform that will underpin the forthcoming BMW 3 Series-sized sedan, Alfa’s new SUV, codenamed C-SUV, will be built next to its sister car, a Jeep model to replace both the Compass and the Patriot, in late 2012. Produced at Fiat’s Mirafori plant in Turin, Italy, 280,000 Jeep- and Alfa-branded SUVs are expected to roll out every year. Of those units, at least 100,000 will be Alfa C-SUVs—half of which will be destined for the U.S.
With only four models in its current lineup, adding an SUV to its offerings will help strengthen Alfa’s appeal for American audiences. While the C-SUV will likely be the brand’s entry-level SUV, a Jeep Grand Cherokee-based SUV is also planned to go into production shortly after Alfa’s reentry into the U.S. market. Combined with the rest of Alfa’s future lineup, including the flagship 4C sports car and upcoming variants of the Giulia and Mito subcompact, these SUVs will help Alfa reach Marchionne’s goal of selling 85,000 units in the U.S. as soon as 2014.

Tips to Choose Right Race Velg
Race velg variation model on markets is really many kinds models and various, but the important thing we have to do before buying is choosing thoroughly because nice model doesnt guarantee good in quality. there are some criteria that must be payed in buying good race velg, such as the following tips: - choose velg from metal that can hold big weight such from magnesium and alumunium forged (handiwork) wheel. velg from alumunium forged is very strong and light. strong metal can determine the design because it can be formed into different model. besides, choose also bearing house made from iron so that stronger. - dont be cheated by the nice price of expensive but faked. look at all explanations as described on the surface of velg or sticker sticked on that is written an information about year maker, the maker factory, and whether the velg had been test for loading test to test the strength and endurance of velg towards heavy and pressure. - if you really like with unique velg model, choose model that appropriate with what you want and also appropriate with your vehicle need. for example race velg for racing or velg to merely follow fashion and trend. - choose velg size appropriate of the size of your vehicle tyre. dont till if there is broken in the tyre, you are difficult to look for appropriate replacer tyre.
besides, there also that must be payed attention. race velg is often interpretted equal to tubeless velg because its construction velg is closed so that can hold air than standard velg where air can pass trough the velg. but in reality many race velg cannot become tubeless velg. so be more accurately. actually there is another primary factor in order that race velg serve the purpose of velg tubeless, that is tyre buffer construction in flat velg and there is key warp. if tyre buffer construction in velg is not flat/ formed warp, so it can not be used as tubeless velg because it can not lock the tyre in order the air is not getting out. important to remember when you are going to use tubeless tyre, besides tubeless velg (usually written tubeless on surface of velg), you must also use tubeless tyre, usually be written on tyre. dont occasionally use standard tyre/ tubetype to be tubeless tyre although your velg is race tubeless velg because it can be dangerous for your safety
