Main > Car Makers News > Alfa Romeo > Alfa Romeo design chief resigns Along with Ferrari, Lamborghini and Maserati, Alfa Romeos personify the image of Italian motoring with their sporty overtones and curvaceous lines, however some of the brand’s most admired models were in fact created by an American designer. Now, less than a year out from Alfa Romeo’s official return to the U.S., American Frank Stephenson, has quit his role as chief designer. Cars developed under his guidance include the first Alfa Romeo in years to be headed for the U.S., the new 8C Competizione... Full article...

This is the first major facelift since the original vehicle, designed by Pininfarina, was launched in 2001. The new vehicle exhibits many of the styling themes seen on Hyundai production and concept vehicles - such as the i10 and i30. The front end is defined by a slim upper grille supported by reverse trapezoid lower intake and the headlamps have... Full article...

We even have all of the details about the mechanicals. What we didn't have until today are live shots and personal impressions of what it's really like in the "flesh." Well, thanks to our own Damon Lavrinc in Geneva, we do now. He describes it as "ambitious," "beautifully fluid", and, when referring to all of Mazda's recent concepts, a "modern Pininfarina with a Japanese flare." It brings some cohesion to recent...

Here, the only brief for a new car is to make it sexy, fast and desirable. The all-new Brera, which replaces the much-loved but ageing GTV, is an Alfa from the old school. Due to hit the UK next April, the powerhouse coupe will top the firm's restructured line-up. Two engines will be available from launch: a base 2.2-litre four-cylinder unit and a range-topping 3.2-litre V6, which is linked to a new hi-tech... Full article...

In fact, independent designers tend to create even more exciting concepts than the big boys. All the more so for design students who give us a preview of what the future holds for creative automotive design. This year the graduate students at the Instituto Europeo di Design we'll let you decipher the translation yourself are coming to Geneva with a full-size concept Maserati... Full article... Article added: 2008-07-11 07:05:41 Article Views Rating: 458 Main > Car Parts > Other > Fioravanti Hidra This design is a progression of the Fioravanti Thalia design presented last year in Geneva, differing mostly in its rear aspect where it has a lower roof line. The overall theme is of a svelte coupesque estate with similar dimensions to the Pininfarina Sinseti also debuting in Geneva. In typical Fioravanti fashion, the car showcases a new functional design solution and has a delicate design language quite different to the zeitgeist of today. Designed by Matteo Fioravanti, the core motif of the design is... Full article...

The most noticeable elements in the car's profile are its long hood and generous dash-to-axle ratio, which contribute greatly to the car's coupelike proportions. The car's athletic looks are...
