Report: Alfa Romeo working on Ghibli-based 6C coupe and sedan

Alfa Romeo is currently developing a new sedan and coupe which will get the “6C” nameplate as per some of the recent reports.

Both the models will come fitted with the same twin-turbo V6 engines co-developed by Maserati with Ferrari for the recently unveiled Ghibli. Aside from engines, the Alfa Romeo 6C is likely to borrow the platform of the baby Quattroporte but will come with a sportier handling and a more aggressive styling.

If the rumors are be believed, the car may come with a Ferrari FF’s all-wheel drive system and/or other drivetrain components from Maranello such as the dual-clutch gearbox. In terms of styling, the model may take some of the styling cues seen on the equally beautiful IED Gloria and Alex Imnadze’s 6C concepts.

The sedan is actually expected to be a sleek four-door coupe and is expected to go on sale in 2015 as a 2016MY. The company has plans of selling 40,000 units annually.
