Design

From the 1960s Duetto that starred in The Graduate to today’s Alfa Spider, nothing evokes the delight of open-air motoring like a convertible Alfa Romeo. The Alfa Spider, stablemate to the Giugiaro-designed Alfa Brera coupé, was the work of Alfa Romeo Centro Stile and Pininfarina. The elegant tail echoes the design of the Giulietta Spider of the 1950s, a genuine icon in automotive history. Launched at the 2006 Geneva Motor Show, the Alfa Spider immediately took the 2006 Geneva Motorshow ‘Cabrio of the Year’ award.

Performance

The Alfa Spider is offered with a choice of two petrol engines: the 2.2-litre JTS, producing 185bhp, and the legendary 3.2-litre V6, which transmits its 260bhp to the road via either a front-wheel drive or advanced four-wheel drive Q4 version. Owners can also specify the torquey 2.4 JTDM diesel engine, which produces 210bhp. The suspension features high wishbones at the front and multilink at the rear for maximum lateral stability, responsive handling and precise, linear control. An automatic gearbox is available on selected versions.

Features

The fabric roof of the Alfa Spider gives it head-turning visual appeal, roof up or down, and is far more space-efficient than the folding metal roofs of rival models. Inside, driver and passenger will find supportive, comfortable sports seats, dual-zone automatic climate control and an exceptional audio system, with the option of a Bose sound system. Also optional is Blue&Me™, an innovative system with voice recognition, that lets you use your Bluetooth® compatible mobile phone and listen to your favourite music from an MP3 player or any other mass storage device with a USB connection.
