We are now 1 month away from the presentation of the future supercar. Alfa Romeo and while there's still a lot we don't know about this one, a new clue has just confirmed that we're on the right track. with 792 hp!
And yes, it could almost have gone incognito, but the brand's CEO has just given a hint on social networks about this supercar. We couldn't have missed it!

792 hours, 6 weeks, ©ourage... these figures and terms are no accident.
792 hp for the 6C!
You'll also notice a magnificent steering wheel on the visual!
How is this power possible? Probably the 3.0L V6 engine found at Maserati, which has already been boosted to 740 hp on the Project24 aided by light hybridization for the remaining 52 hp.
What's more, in 2018, before it was abandoned, an Alfa Romeo 8C with over 700 hp was already in the pipeline...
We're now looking forward to August 30 for the official presentation, which can be viewed via streaming. Production of this supercar will be limited. As for the price, it could well exceed the 250,000 euro mark.
Spectacular! I get the impression that between the 600 (launched in 2013) and this 6C, FCA is bringing out the projects cancelled in recent years... Maybe a big Alfa sedan is on the way?
It's true! In fact, the product plans have been ready for a long time, there just weren't the platforms and/or the money... for the 600 I've actually read that they wanted to release it, at the time, on the platform of the old Punto...
For Fiat, they were talking about modifying the argo platform, but then they stopped everything when they found out who to merge with.
At least this 700 hp Alfa won't have a 1.2 puretoc 😁
🤣😂👍
Hopefully not electric either.
Hopefully, they'll be able to ruin it all again.
Given the exclusive distribution (less than 100 units, probably all or almost all already sold), it's unlikely that they had to worry about CO2 emissions... For the Firefly - which will equip Peugeots in South America - it seems that this level of emissions was the only consideration for its discontinuation in Europe. The "Brennero" will be the only model equipped with a PSA combustion engine (not up to the task of a Giulia or a Stelvio, which are in any case being developed on the electric Giorgio platform, in Cassino, perhaps for longer models than the current ones in order to sell them in China), from 2026 all new models will be electric and in 2027 production of the combustion "Brennero" will come to an end.
We'll see who lives, but I must admit I'm expecting the worst, but Fredo's right, because from what I've heard... they've already all been sold.
Now for the ultra-limited series they may have a freer hand, so I'd love to see the Alfa V6 in it.
The Maserati v6 is the modified Alfa v6...
it's certain to be the 3.0l v6 nettuno (which they'll badge Alfa)
I don't know, but we'll keep our fingers crossed that it's the worst case or the new Ferrari V6 at best.
