v bistvu res ne vem , kaj je temu marčioniju
Sergio je kljub italijanskemu imenu pravi Američan in takšno je njegovo (ne)dojemanje avtomobilske realnosti, zlasti evropske.
Giulietta potrebuje konkreten FL, ki bi jo oblikovno približal Giulii in Stelviu. Tako, kot 147 ob prihodu "Brera" generacije.Toolox napisal/-a:Kakšen facelift, saj je bil ravno lansko leto zadnji.
Pa 2014 predzadnji...
Jih bodo delali na vsake dve leti?
Zdi se mi spodbudno, čeprav ne bi rekel, da so prodajne številke odlične. Bi pa Makaroni najbrž lažje dosegel zastavljene cilje iz leta 2014, če bi dejansko izpljunil vseh 8 obljubljenih Alfinih novih modelov... Ampak nič novega, da Italijani obljubljajo bistveno več, kot potem dejansko naredijo. Me prav zanima, kakšne zgodbice bodo napletli spomladi, ko naj bi izdali nov 4-letni načrt.Alfa Romeo's 2017 production surged 62% on new models

MILAN -- Alfa Romeo increased production by 62 percent last year, boosted by sales of the Guilia sedan and Stelvio SUV, but the Fiat Chrysler Automobiles brand fell short of FCA CEO Sergio Marchionne's expectations.
Alfa's output at its three Italian factories was 150,722, up from the 93,117 in 2016, according to the Fim-Cisl union. FCA does not release production or sales numbers.
Speaking to analysts in April and in July last year, Marchionne said he expected Alfa's vehicle sales to be 170,000 for 2017. At the end of October Marchionne was more cautious, saying the brand's U.S. sales were slower than expected and Alfa was "behind the curve" in China.
Market researchers JATO Dynamics estimate the brand's global sales were 118,000 and 125,000 last year, up from 71,700 in 2016.
Alfa's U.S. sales rose to 12,031 for the year, up from just 516 in 2016, according to the Automotive News Data Center after the Giulia went on sale to American customers in January and the Stelvio in July.
The brand's volume in the EU and EFTA markets rose 33 percent to 79,963 in the first 11 months, according to industry association ACEA. Full-year sales will be released later this month.
China blow
In China, Alfa was hurt by new regulations that came into force in July limiting the ability of automakers to push sales through dealers. Alfa's sales in China were 410 units in November, according to a JATO estimate, and 497 in December, according to an LMC estimate. The figures were well down on July, the brand's best month, when it sold 3,331 cars in China, according to JATO.
Alfa's global sales will be between 140,000 and 150,000 this year, JATO estimates. Alfa has no new products coming this year so its sales performance will depend on the success of the Stelvio in the U.S. and China, JATO analyst Filipe Munoz said.
Marchionne's revival plan for Alfa, unveiled in 2014, called for 400,000 global sales by 2018 with an expanded lineup of eight new models.
In 2016, FCA dropped Alfa's volume targets and extended the date for completing the 8-model lineup to mid-2020.
