At the end of the '60s, Alfa Romeo began to write a new chapter in its history by entering the market with a medium-low class car that was true to the company’s sporting vocation and with a form of technology only experimented with in timid fashion until then. The little Alfa’s front-wheel drive and a longitudinal mounted boxer engine, signalled a real turnaround that even involved a selected production centre: Pomigliano d’Arco, near Naples. The Alfasud was a car that not only left a deep impression on the technological and industrial history of the automotive Italy, but also had major repercussions on the social, occupational and political life of the country between the early ’70s and the end of the ’80s, which included an highly active sporting life rich with success.
