Am trying to like (love would be a step too far) and struggling. I could put up with part-sharing, but Alfas should be sexy, attractive, stylish and sleek. Even their SUVs try to follow this design DNAs (not always successful but granted they are SUVs). But this one? It’s like they are trying to do boxy (like all the other small SUVs) but then thought oh let’s throw in a few curves just to be ‘distinctive’…

I’ve read a couple of reports that are saying they’ve been told that they can’t call it Milano in Italy because only Italian produced products are allowed Italian names, and this is made in Poland.

Oops!

If it isn't made in Milan, then it's just a generic sparkling crossover.

Anyway, it's now the Milano no longer, but the Alfa Romeo Junior

Anyone else think that 'Junior' and 'Giulia' are going to sound sufficiently similar to cause confusion when booking cars in for service etc?
