Alfa Romeo has resurrected the famous Cloverleaf badge, which is traditionally associated with the companyò€™s racing heritage, for the coupé.
The badge will appear on a range of models, including the 1.9-litre JTD turbodiesel. This is uprated from 150bhp to 170bhp, and gets the brandò€™s Q2 limited slip differential. It sprints from 0-62mph in 8.2 seconds and goes on to a 134mph top speed.
All Cloverleaf models feature 18-inch alloys and red brake calipers, plus a satin-effect front grille and door mirrors. There are three colour choices: Carbonio Black, Alfa Red and Atlantico Blue.
Inside, standard equipment includes leather sports seats, aluminium pedals and sports dials with a red background. The range is on sale now, with prices rising from Ò£18,980 for the 1.8 TS to Ò£21,890 for the 170bhp JTD.
