One of the most famous brands in the automobile world - Alfa Romeo - appeared as a result of sales failures of the French Darracq passenger cars assembled in Italy.
In 1906, Alexandre Darracq organized the sale of his two lightest cars through the "Italian Joint-Stock Company Darracq" (Societa Anonima Italiana Darracq - SAID).
Three years later, the company went bankrupt. In 1910, the company ALFA (Anonima Lombard! Fabbrica Automobili - Joint-Stock Company "Automobile Factory in Lombardy") was founded on its "ruins".
Guiseppe Merosi, who had previously worked for FIAT, took on the development of new models suitable for Italian mountain roads.
ALFA, having successfully launched itself in Italy (sales increased from 20 units in 1910 to 200 cars in the first half of 1915), was forced to switch to military production.
The company was thriving, but the bank that worked with it was pessimistic about the market for passenger cars during the war and demanded additional guarantees.
A wealthy mining engineer who took over as CEO became such a guarantee. The company then changed its name to Alfa Romeo.
The Alfa Romeo Spider and "GTV" models with an updated appearance, shown in 1995, had the same platform, transmission and body frame extended to the windshield. One of them was an open version, the other - a coupe.
A more rigid closed body eliminated the vibration characteristic of the open Spider on uneven roads.
The overall styling featured distinctive twin headlights and deep creases along the rounded sides, ending at the "GTV" on the high rear end.
The luxurious 2+2 interior featured a large, steeply raked rear window and an additional brake light at its base.
