Alfa Romeo teases its first-ever EV: Know all about Milano
What's the story
Alfa Romeo, the iconic Italian carmaker, is gearing up to reveal its first-ever electric vehicle (EV), the Milano, on April 10. The company has teased fans with a sneak peek of the car, decked out in a bright red camouflage. With a rich history spanning over a century, Alfa Romeo is renowned for its stylish designs and powerful performance. Now, the automaker is planning to go green by entering the highly competitive electric crossover segment.
Engineering
Anticipated performance and engineering of the upcoming Milano EV
The Milano is anticipated to deliver 'best-in-class driving dynamics and handling,' as stated by Alfa Romeo. The same engineering team behind the 4C, 8C, and Guilia GTA has concentrated on dynamics by focusing on the suspension. The goal was to achieve top-notch driving dynamics through direct and extremely precise steering geometry, enhancing grip for quick cornering.
Specifications
Platform, specifications, and availability
Constructed on Stellantis' e-CMP platform, the Milano is likely to share specs with the Jeep Avenger. We expect a 54kWh battery providing a range of up to 400 km. However, the Milano's dual-motor system could churn out more power. With an estimated price tag of £40,000 (around Rs. 42.26 lakh), it will be comparable in size to Volvo EX30. The EV will be sold primarily in Europe and a few international markets.
