Alfa Romeo NUVULA
The Alfa Romeo Nuvola Concept was presented at the Paris Motor Show in 1996. This concept designed in the “Alfa Romeo Centro Stile” stands out for its all-wheel drive system and a small 300 horsepower V6 engine.

As a sample of design, search for new trends and technology development, Alfa Romeo developed a concept that reflects its sporting tradition and good styling design. He even remembers the sporting past from the name in tribute to the talented Italian racer of yesteryear Tazio Nuvolari.

The Alfa Romeo Nuvola Concept is equipped with a V6 transverse front engine with two twin turbochargers. This V6 develops a power of 300 hp at 6,000 rpm and a torque of 387 Nm at 3,000 rpm. The transmission features a six-speed manual gearbox that allows acceleration from 0 to 100 km/h in 6 seconds.

Probably one of the most important technological elements is the all-wheel drive system, which, as already proven, greatly improves stability and performance in any type of vehicle, especially in a sports car like this coupe that reaches a top speed of 280 km/h.
