Less than a year ago, in fact on 24 June 2022 - exactly 112 years since Alfa Romeo was founded - Alfa Romeo F1 Team driver Valtteri Bottas offered a unique awakening to the people of Milan, driving the team car through the empty streets of a city that was just starting its day. A truly unique way to celebrate the Italian marque's birthday.
Now, Alfa Romeo is once again rocking the streets of Italy with its Formula 1 roar, this time choosing the route between Cassino and Pomigliano, the two places where the brand's production plants are located. This time the team's car is driven by the team's Chinese driver, Zhou Guanyu, who is living a unique experience, but away from the familiar Formula 1 circus tarmac.
Alfa Romeo models are manufactured exclusively in Italy. Production of the Giulia and Stelvio is carried out at the Cassino plant, a highly advanced facility, which has been selected to build future models based on the Stellantis STLA Large platform. Similarly, the new Alfa Romeo Tonale, the first electrified model in the brand's history, is built in Pomigliano, on the outskirts of Naples. In addition to the hybrid versions of the model, the production plant also builds the Tonale Plug-in Hybrid Q4 280hp, the first Alfa Romeo with a pure electric drive for up to 80km and more than 700km of total range.
Once again, Alfa Romeo is once again disrupting the streets of Italy and surprising its friends, but also those who love cars and racing.
The action is just starting!
