Alfa Romeo comes in handy lately with their latest models, including the Brera, the 8C, and the myth . But now comes the main attraction of the Italian firm, as they are to be submitted to the replacements 159 and 147 (its successor is named Milan ). It also expects the new 169 .
For 159 , apparently because his replacement has a name, Giulia , the legendary model. But still no data of any kind, is 169 (or as they call).
New Giulia still no data, but if there is recreation to help us to imagine how serious this new model.
New Giulia is the new platform developed under the group Fiat C, which also use the .
Milano
This could have an engine turbo four-cylinder petrol, V6 petrol and a number of turbo diesel. But do not forget the TAG , that will be part of the catalog.
In the recreation appreciate a completely new model, where there’s almost no line 159 . Here we see a guide to design Myth , where the only thing that stands out for its beauty alone in this recreation, is the optical style Peugeot 206 , and design and opened the back door details that make it different but not very pleasing to the eye, most of all lenses (personal opinion).
For now we must wait. Expectations about what is developing Alpha are many, hopefully not disappoint.

Lexus is preparing a model to compete face to face with the Audi A3

As is common in the traditional report every day (almost always), information is scarce, and sometimes virtually nonexistent. Well this time is zero, because all we know is that Lexus is developing a model to compete with the Audi A3 and BMW 1 Series .
In this model some time referred to the web, but never signed deluxe Toyota has reported any data from it. Well now it seems to change, since it is highly necessary for all brands to have more kids and cars with engines less polluting.
The name is possibly BS CS or (not known), but what if you need to confirm is that this model will result from the hybrid engine HS 250h as well, and probably also share the platform and many mechanical parts.
As aesthetics are expected to look much at HS 250h and not the recreation that you see in picture (from a magazine years ago Motors Trend, that appears).
But what if you will like this recreation that is cut in the rear hatchback, which is very similar to the BMW 1 Series .
By now there are only rumors and speculation, but I do not think that Toyota then give us a lot in this premiere. Possibly in the Hall ? Geneva have some novelty of this model.
