Alfa Romeo Unveils New Electric SUV: The Milano

Alfa Romeo recently introduced the Milano, an electric SUV with a unique grille design, set to be manufactured in Poland. This decision has stirred controversy with Italian authorities who believe that the name Milano is too closely tied to Italian heritage to be produced outside of Italy, citing laws originally intended to protect traditional Italian products like cheese.

Italian Authorities Object to Production Location

Italian officials have expressed their disapproval of Alfa Romeo’s choice to manufacture the Milano in Poland, arguing that the name and heritage of the vehicle should remain tied to its Italian roots. The government’s stance on this issue has led to a debate over where the Milano should be produced and whether it should adhere to strict regulations regarding its manufacturing location.

Alfa Romeo Responds to Pressure

In response to the backlash from Italian authorities, Alfa Romeo has decided to rename the Milano in order to appease concerns about its production location. The company is now facing the challenge of rebranding the electric SUV while still maintaining its appeal to consumers.
