At the 2013 Geneva Motor Show, the European Design Institute
(IED) of Turin is presenting the world première of 'Gloria', the concept by the
Master in Transportation Design in collaboration with the Alfa Romeo Style
Centre. The prototype represents the sports spirit and Italian style of a brand
with powerful international appeal, whose products have brought the beauty of
Italian design into the wider world. It was 1966 when the Spider Duetto in the
film The Graduate reinforced the mythical image of the car manufacturer in the
United States. Today, the Alfa Romeo Gloria Concept is intended as another
international challenge, again looking overseas, to the American and Asian
markets
The European Design Institute of Turin, thanks to the
support of and vicinity to the Fiat-Chrysler EMEA Design Center, has had the
opportunity of 'training' its young car designers on the subject of:
"conceiving an Alfa Romeo saloon to communicate to the American and Asian
markets". In effect, the saloon remains a symbol of elegance and prestige
for these markets, associated with the idea of comfortable space both at the
front and the rear, expressed by the length of the model. In particular, the
Alfa Romeo Style Centre participated with passion in the various phases of the
project: from the product brief to the brand's historic collection, and from
the first style proposals up to the development, in clay, of the model in 1:1
scale.
"We asked the students in the Master programme to give
us their completely independent interpretation of a new Alfa Romeo
saloon," states Lorenzo Ramaciotti, Head of Fiat & Chrysler Design.
"During development, we commented, discussed and guided the projects in
order to get the most from their spontaneous expressions of creativity. The result
was stimulating and marked by professional and creative excellence."
4700 mm long, 1920 mm wide, 1320 mm high and with a
wheelbase of 2900 mm, Alfa Romeo Gloria Concept is a sports saloon with
decisive lines that run down the side to the rear end. It would be propelled by
a state-of-the-art V6 or V8 biturbo engine on the road. The bonnet powerfully
evokes the Alfa Romeo shield through the lines of the car, which highlight the
three-dimensional aspects of its form. The leather strips at the front recall the
memorable leather straps for the luggage compartments of the brand's historic
cars.
