What a difference 58 years makes juxtiposition of Alfa Romeo Giulia GT 1300 Junior, 1966 & Alfa Romeo Junior Elettrica Veloce, 2024. The car that was presented last week as the Milano has been renamed after criticism over the use of the city's name in the Italian parliament. Though the company was founded in Milan in 1910, Alfa's new electric/hybrid small car will be manufactured in Stellantis's Polish factory.
