Other than the upcoming 4C, it seems that things at Alfa has been relatively quiet. But recently, it presented an ambitious plan to introduce eight new models in the next five years. The new lineup will comprise of compact family cars (C segment), mid-sized sedans (E segment), compact SUVs, and even a full-sized flagship sedan. At this point of time, we couldn't quite imagine how a stately, BMW 7 Series-like Alfa Romeo will be like.

Being the passionate, fun-to-drive car manufacturer as we know it, Alfa did not forget to include a "Specialty product" in its plans. The model is widely believed to be the compact sports car, which is a joint project with Mazda to replace the MX-5. Think of it as the Alfa/Mazda version of the 86/BRZ.

 

All these certainly brings up the vibe for Alfa Romeo. But we are keeping our fingers crossed that it wouldn't follow the footsteps of Lotus'.

  • A 20-year journey, an old passion rekindled

    For us 90s babies, the Holy Trinity of Disney Channel, Nickelodeon, and Cartoon Network formed a big part of our childhood. The internet was just about coming into fruition, with the rise of a plethora of websites with numerous entertaining flash games and of course, the early days of YouTube. And though those things have come and gone, one thing in my life remained constant: My love for Pokemon. I first got into Pokemon 20 years ago, and I remember exactly how it went down. Let me set the

    Note: Click here to read Pt. 1, where the journey began in Hong Kong. NEXT UP: CHONGQING Day 3, cont.: Dad had decided on the scenic route to Chongqing - train. We did not realise that the immigration process at the Hong Kong Kowloon West station involved both the Hong Kong and Chinese authorities, so we found ourselves in a rush to board the train (we boarded minutes before the scheduled departure). Through the eight-hour journey, the passing sights made me realise the diversity

    Fascinated by honey

    If there's one natural food (aka can be eaten raw) that I absolutely love, it's honey. Yes, there are countless varieties from around the world, but for this story, we'll talk about the kind that comes straight out of a hive, complete with honeycomb. I'm not an expert on this topic, but every time I consume raw, unprocessed honey, it tastes a lot better compared to honey that comes in a jar. No squeeze-bottle honey for me, please. Perhaps it's just my imagination, but raw honey doesn't

    Motorcycle riding is a sensory experience beyond the exhaust

    Riding a motorcycle is like taking your nose on a wild adventure. You're cruising down the road, expecting to smell nothing except exhaust fumes and perhaps rubbish, when suddenly - bam! - you're hit with the mouthwatering aroma of sizzling char kway teow from a nearby coffeeshop. Heck, you might even catch a whiff of someone's fancy perfume as you zip by. It's like your bike has magical powers, transforming an ordinary ride into a sensory rollercoaster. It's these unexpected olfactory deli
