2025 Alfa Romeo Duetto

[quote quote=”A.P.M.”]Según [url url=http://www.autocar.co.uk/car-news/new-cars/next-gen-mazda-mx-5-could-get-diesel-power]autocar[/url]:
– montaria un 1.4 TB con 120cv (89 kW). Podria ofrecerse otra versión mas potente
– ofreceria una caja de cambios de 6 vel y una automatica de 6[/quote]

Según autocar también habla del 1.75 tbi de 300 cv y que Mazda lo ofrecería en diesel.

TAmbién dice que pesaría 800 kg, cosa que no me creo ni harto de vino.

Hasta que no lo vea, no me lo creo.

Un Mazda MX5 diesel?
Un Alfa Duetto con 300 cv?

El peso ya si que soy capaz de creérmelo más si sacan una versión de lona y un poco escaso de equipamiento.

El Mazda MX5 saldría a principios de 2015. El Spider a finales de 2015.

El Alfa sería un poco más largo por el diseño.

Ligeros: 1000-1100 kg.

NO será un diseño “retro”.

Lightweight Alfa Romeo Spider to return with a lightweight construction and contemporary styling

The new Alfa Romeo Spider will blend lightweight engineering and modern styling with an accessible chassis and a power output of 168bhp when it goes on sale in late 2015.

Based on the next-generation Mazda MX-5 platform and to be built in Japan, the new Spider’s styling is close to final sign-off.

The work is that of Marco Tencone, design chief at Alfa Romeo and Maserati, and his team at Fiat’s Centro Stile and a satellite studio in Japan.

Tencone’s most recent cars are the Alfa 4C sports car and the new Maserati Quattroporte and Ghibli saloons. Pininfarina, which designed the original boat-tail ‘Duetto’ in the mid-1960s, is understood not to be involved in the design of the new Spider, despite creating the striking 2010 Duettotanta concept.

The Duettotanta blended the slender boat-tail proportions of the original with contemporary body surfacing. Insiders say Centro Stile strived for months to make the design work on a production car.

It is likely that Tencone will take a similar approach for the new Spider, looking at historic design themes but with a very modern interpretation, just as the 33 Stradale has been reimagined for the 4C.

“The new Spider definitely won’t be retro in design,” said a well placed source. “The Spider has to be contemporary and must fit into the range with the modern 4C.”

Another source added: “It would have been easy to go for a retro, boat-tail design, but how would that fit in with the 4C and today’s Alfa designs?”

Among the design features that are understood to feature on the new Spider are conventional headlamp clusters, which will help to give the roadster wider appeal than the hardcore, mid-engined 4C, which is set to go on sale later this year.

The 4C features a single-projector headlight, five circular LED running lights and an indicator bulb set in a contrast-coloured moulding.

The Spider’s front end will be characterised by an Alfa ‘shield’ grille flanked by lower air intake ‘whiskers’, but the execution will be more subtle than that employed on the 4C.

The Alfa and Mazda will share windscreens, windscreen structure, front bulkhead, engine compartments and front and rear axles. Although both cars will be about four metres long and 1.7 metres wide, the Alfa’s styling is said to make it a few centimetres longer than the more minimalist Mazda. Both cars will be lightweight, tipping the scales at 1000-1100kg, thanks to a large proportion of high-strength steel in the body structure.

Although the inner structures of the two sports cars will be shared to keep costs down, sources say they won’t have any external panels in common. “They’ll have different bodies,” said one.

The Spider will also be powered by its own engines. Just one capacity is being engineered for launch: a version of the turbocharged 1.4 TB MultiAir, which is offered in the Giulietta in two power outputs of 119bhp or 168bhp. The Spider’s engine is understood to be the more powerful version.

Although the Spider will require longitudinal engine installation, Alfa Romeo sources say the TB unit can be modified to fit. It will be mated to a six-speed dual-clutch automatic gearbox.

Given the variation of major components, commonality between the Spider and the MX-5 will be relatively low, at about 40 per cent. A more typical figure for joint-platform projects is 60 per cent.

The Spider will be given its own chassis tune once development work starts. The current thinking is to give the Spider accessible suspension settings focused on everyday driving to distinguish it from the hardcore 4C.

“But we haven’t started work on it yet,” said one source. “We’re concentrating on the 4C at the moment.”

It also looks like the Alfa and Mazda roadsters will be launched separately. The Mazda is slated for an early 2015 reveal, but the Alfa could be held back until November.

Dicen que es el Spider-Duetto de pruebas por USA…

Gracias por aclararmelo.

Hablan de 1.050 kg.

La mula en Michigan

Curioso que falte el faldón lateral.
También sorprende la forma de la boca de gasolina.

Te han hecho caso Millia

EStos alemanes no se enteran.

Marchionne ha echado balones fuera cuando le han preguntado sobre el Alfa Spider.

Ha dicho que no tiene por que ser Alfa y que puede ser de otra marca del grupo.

Es decir, seguramente el hermano del MX5 sea ABARTH o FIAT.

PERO QUÉ GANANCIAS VAN A TENER EN 2025?!

Si en 2025 solo tendrán el tonale y el B-SUV
