    Alfa Romeo Challenger

    Dodge name will be phased out in Europe according to Fiat & Chrysler restructuring and the Challenger will be sold as an Alfa Romeo

    An Alfa Romeo Challenger? Dodge models to be sold as Alfa Romeos in Europe

    Posted: July 3, 2009
    Filed under: Alfa Romeo, Chrysler, Dodge, Fiat, Industry News

    Chrysler Group LLC and Fiat SpA’s CEO Sergio Marchionne recently said that the new partnership between the two companies will bring back the Alfa Romeo brand to North America to compete against luxury European cars. The new CEO is hard at work at his Chrysler Group LLC office, sharing details on his vision to use Fiat models as the basis of future vehicles branded as Chrysler, Dodge and Jeep.
    According to AutoCar, Dodge models could be rebadged in Europe as Alfa Romeo cars. Marchionne says he sees the two brands sharing the same core identity and he aims to have a strategy in place on what to do with the two brands by the end of the month.
    Sources say that one proposal Marchionne has in mind is selling all Dodge models as Alfa Romeos in Europe, and all Alfa Romeo models as Dodge models in the United States.

    “Dodge is the American muscle car, while Alfa Romeo is the European muscle car. How we dovetail these two brands is very important,” Marchionne said. “The level of competition between these two brands is tremendous because they are both going after the same customer.”
    Could I interest you in a Alfa Romeo Challenger or a Dodge MiTo?

    Alfa Romeo Challenger

    Ya, I think the "Press" put that picture there.

    I know the Dodge Ram badge and name would go. They will change something since all Alfa Romeo have that shield at the front. I hope they won't mess around too much with paint. Some Alfa Romeo are damn ugly.

    At the same time, I wonder what the Alfa Romeo "here" will look like.

    They also want to slowly seperate the platform sharing between the Chrysler and Dodge.
    The 300 series is supposed to get higher in luxury to compete with Cadillac and the Dodge toward the sport and performance. There even talking about maybe dropping one of them but I don't know if it's will be the Magnum, Challenger or Charger or none.

    The 300 CRD (Magnum with 300 front end Diesel) is the number 1 seller in England and very strong in other countries so I don't know what they're gonna do.

    That picture is old hat to me. This is what a member at the AlfaBB did when I announced that I was buying a Charger!

    Hence Alfa Charger was created!
