About the Alfa Romeo 90
Designed by Bertone, the Alfa Romeo 90 was a sophisticated executive saloon that bridged the gap between the Alfetta and the flagship Alfa 6. It utilised the Alfetta's transaxle chassis for balanced handling and was powered by the legendary 'Busso' V6, renowned for its characterful sound and smooth delivery. The 90 was technologically advanced for its era, featuring a speed-sensitive active front spoiler to aid cooling and aerodynamics, alongside a digital dashboard in the range-topping Quadrifoglio Oro trim. Today, it is a rare and quirky alternative to the more common Alfa 75, prized for its 1980s angular aesthetic and Italian flair.
