In preparation of Alfa Romeo’s 110th anniversary, to be officially celebrated on June 24, 2020, the brand is launching a comprehensive heritage package that highlights key moments in its illustrious history.
Headlining the heritage package is an interactive e-book, which spans from the brand’s very beginning in 1910, when the first A.L.F.A., the 24 HP, was introduced, to today and beyond with such vehicles as the limited-edition Giulia GTA and the upcoming Tonale crossover.
