2uettottanta: new concept by Alfa Romeo and Pininfarina

Celebrating 80 years of history Pininfarina is presenting at this year’s Geneva Motor Show a new concept car designed for Alfa Romeo: the 2uettottanta. According to Pininfarina the concept “is an innovative approach, projected into the third millennium, to a topic that is firmly rooted in Pininfarina history, the 2-seater spider”.

The 2uettottanta is also celebrating the centenary of Afa Romeo and that is why the name is a combination between the Italian brand’s legendary Duetto and the number of years of activity at Pininfarina.

The "simple 2-seater" is powered by a 1750cc turbo engine, in a reference to the “1750 Veloce” of 1968. With 1797 mm wide, 4212.6 mm long, 1280 mm high and a wheelbase of 2500 mm, the 2uettottanta couldn’t feature any other colour than the typical red.

With a simple front end design, the 2uettottanta features a central line that runs along the nose of the car, with the Alfa Romeo shield placed at the centre, with a futuristic three-dimensional approach.

The 2uettottanta can be driven in three different modes, Dynamic, Normal and All Weather, each one of them adapting the behaviour of the various systems on the vehicle to the demands of the driver and the different driving conditions.

The low centre of gravity and a passenger compartment that is very exposed was the solution found by Pininfarina to express the values inherent in the company’s Alfa spider vehicles, features that made the Giulietta Spider or the Duetto all-time classics.
