ALFA Romeo is planning to launch a new all-electric SUV flagship in the second half of this decade. In an interview with Auto Express, the Italian brand's CEO Jean-Philippe Imparato told us: "After 2026, we will go up [in size]; I'm bringing to the market in 2027 an E-segment car [a large saloon] that's great for North America, that's great for Europe. We will probably also say, 'Okay, why not China?" You know, in a built-up model in 2028."
This 'built-up model' is expected to be a fully-fledged SUV, which will be pitched into the sector of the market currently occupied by the Audi Q8 e-tron, Mercedes EQS, and BMW IX. It will accompany an all-electric replacement for the Stelvio, which will sit on the same platform as the Giulia EV.
