A successor to the Alfa Romeo GTV coupe could arrive by 2026, with the brand’s chief designer confirming work is continuing behind the scenes
Mesonero-Romanos wouldn’t say if the car would more likely come to market as a GTV or perhaps as an Alfetta coupé, but he did hint that he had been spending a lot of time surveying the unconventional form of the iconic Alfa Romeo SZ of 1989, and was inspired by it.
“This wasn’t a beautiful car, we all know,” he told Autocar, “but there is a lot we can take from its distinctiveness and independence of spirit when we think about designing a coupé for the electric age. I loved its wedge profile, its square tail, and the way the dark glasshouse just bubbles out of this great mass of body. It’s a brutal design, but such a special, impactful one - and we need to emulate it if we can.
That task won’t be easy using Alfa’s next-generation skateboard EV platform, which lends itself towards higher-profile bodies, long wheelbases and slightly inelegant proportions. “It’s often said that EV technology is freeing for designers because there are no rules, no restrictions.
