Alfa Romeo has announced a surprise new supercar, and it can be bought with either a V6 engine or three electric motors.
Limited to just 33 examples and priced from €1.7m (£1.46m) plus tax, the new 33 Stradale can be ordered with either an engine or electric drivetrain. The former is a twin-turbocharged 3.0-litre V6 engine producing over 620 horsepower and an evolution of the 2.9-litre motor of Alfa’s Giulia Quadrifoglio super saloon. We also suspect the engine is closely related to that of theMaserati MC20.

Inside, the cabin is a lesson in simplicity. The steering wheel has no buttons, dials switches or touch pads at all,while the dashboard has an infotainment display that can be folded away when not in use. Below that are a set of beautiful aluminium switches that look like they’ll surely move like those of an expensive camera. Further buttons are mounted to the ceiling, aeroplane-style, and leather pulls are fitted instead of door handles.
Alfa isn’t saying much about the optional electric drivetrain of the 33 Stradale, other than it uses three motors to split power between the front and rear axles.

It will surely borrow components from other brands in the Stellantis group, in a bid to keep costs under control, and we can’t help wondering how many of the 33 buyers will tick the EV box. It surely won’t be many, given this is as much Alfa’s final internal-combustion supercar as it is its first EV.
All 33 examples have already been sold, with deliveries to begin in December 2024 and production to end at some point in 2026.
