Alfa Romeo's New Design Language , New Alfa Romeo Milano 2024
- 28 days ago
The Milano showcases Alfa's new design language as it introduces hybrid and electric powertrains to the compact segment in Europe.
Showcasing a new design for the famous Italian brand, it is aimed at Europe's compact segment, where you can have a hybrid or fully electric version filled with all the purity, passion and spirit you expect only from Alfa Romeo.
The company specifically states that this compact includes a new design language for Alfa Romeo. Short overhangs at the front and rear, wide fenders and a long waistline give the vehicle a muscular appearance. Aside from the lack of exhaust tips, the electric models will be recognized by a modest grille with the company's iconic logo on it. Hybrid models feature a traditional grille with classic Alfa Romeo lettering, but both are set between a split-light design called "3+3" headlights. 18-inch wheels are standard, with 20-inch wheels available on performance trims.
Measuring just over 13 meters long and almost 1.8 meters wide, the Milano is firmly in the compact realm. The bulky proportions create 14.1 cubic feet of cargo space behind the rear seats; Alfa says this figure is the best in the compact class. Moving forward, you'll find a cockpit with two 10.25-inch digital displays, one dedicated to the driver and the other serving as the central infotainment display. You'll also find plenty of buttons for common use features. The layout is the same whether you choose hybrid or electric powertrains.
Speaking of powertrains, the electric versions have a single motor with a 54 kWh battery. It produces 156 horsepower in standard form and has a range of 255 miles on the WLTP cycle. The Veloce trim increases power to 240 horsepower, and you also get fine-tuned steering, upgraded suspension, big brakes, and a mechanical, self-locking differential with the aforementioned 20-inch wheels with performance tires. Alfa Romeo doesn't mention the trade-off in terms of range, but all electric versions can fast charge from 10 to 80 percent in 30 minutes with 100 kW DC fast chargers.
Opting for the Milan hybrid means a turbocharged 1.2-litre three-cylinder engine and a 21 kW electric motor integrated into a six-speed dual-clutch transmission. Alfa Romeo lists a total power output of 136 hp driving the front wheels or all four in the Ibrida Q4 trim. Electric-only operation is available on the hybrid at speeds up to 93 mph, but there's no mention of how far you can go without starting the gasoline engine.
For those on the opposite side of the pond, the Milano Speciale will be the launch model with hybrid or electric versions. This special edition features unique equipment, wheels and is equipped with a wide range of technical features, including Level 2 driver assistance systems. Pricing has not yet been announced; all-wheel drive hybrid models will be available later in the year.
