Alfa Romeo 2uettottanta Concept 2010

Alfa Romeo 2uettottanta Concept, a concept car that evokes the legendary Duetto of the Sixties, is proposes by Pininfarina to mark its 80th anniversary. The 2uettottanta is said to reflect Pininfarina’s determination to look to the future with optimism following tradition, a concept that represents an innovative approach, projected into the third millennium, to a topic that is firmly rooted in Pininfarina history, the 2-seater spider.

Pininfarina has always strived for natural shapes that can convey efficiency and respect of the environment, an approach confirmed by its great commitment to the theme of eco-sustainable mobility. The 2uettottanta is in perfect harmony with nature, becoming the formal expression of a response to the needs of our day.

The design of the 2uettottanta combines stylistic simplicity with a strong character in the volumes and proportions, with details designed to underline the car’s dynamic and light personality. Therefore, the front end of the 2uettottanta underlines its true Alfa Romeo character. With its red profile inspired by the typical Alfa Romeo paintwork, the 2uettottanta is 1797 mm wide, 4212.6 mm long, 1280 mm high and has a wheelbase of 2500 mm. The proposed engine is a 1750 cc turbo which is positioned longitudinally.

The size and design of the tyres of the 2uettottanta are created specifically in collaboration with Dunlop. The rims are treated in aluminium in harmony with the rest of the car, and are a free interpretation of the classic five-circle Alfa Romeo pattern. They reveal the high performance carbo-ceramic Alfa Romeo brakes by Brembo.

The 2uettottanta Concept is also a tribute to Alfa Romeo, which celebrates its centenary in 2010.
