    New Alfa Milano

    Interesting choice of name I remember the 1980s Milano (75 in Europe) https://www.caranddriver.com/news/a60460681/alfa-romeo-milano-ev-details/ The subcompact crossover will also be offered with a three-cylinder hybrid powertrain, but sadly, neither version will be sold in the United States.
