But perhaps its less difficult then imagined, at least if you're LP Design , who created this hypothetical look at Alfa Romeos potential future., it's thought that the coupe could and should show its face sometime in 2017. The cabriolet seems like a logical progression from the coupe. The shooting brake and sport tourer are unlikely at this point. Alfa is on record that they have no intentions of producing a Giulia wagon no matter how pretty we think it is. Move away from Giulia derivatives and things get interesting. Giulia is making use of a re purposed Maserati Ghibli platform , FCA has shown that the platform is scalable as it also does it's duty under the Quattroporte, as well as rumored to be used under the GranTurismo replacement. Could something similar be in play at Alfa,It would certainly give Sergio his much desired consolidation under his own umbrella.Lastly the Giulietta is the model with the most speculation potential. Alfa has announced that Giulia and Giulietta will share a factory in Cassino, Italy . Could this mean potentially that Alfa will be seeking to shorten the Giulias platform to work under the Giulietta? It would certainly give Alfa a competent and potent product to battle with the likes of Mercedes CLA, Audi's A3 and BMW's 2 series.
