First of all, you should pay attention to the fact that the conceptual Alfa - not mock, it probably should be designated as a prototype chassis. The same is said and beauty - best varieties worn leather Connolly clearly demonstrates that the machine is not idle all this time somewhere in the darkened garage or basement. So, then, in '97, in one of the buildings of the Geneva exhibition complex it is not rolled their hands - the machine has all provisions of any other vehicle units and apparatus. Another thing is that the technical stuffing Scighera not dare to call "normal."
By the way, do not think that we forgot about the appearance of "Italian" - no, just when we'll discuss the aesthetic pleasure, which gives the car a good idea to know what lies behind these forms. Only then you can understand why some conceptual development captivate and 8 years after birth. Let's start with the power unit. If you are in the streets you pay attention to the model Alfa 90s and met among them the "three-liter» Alfa Romeo 164 - know this: under the hood of the Italian representative set powerplant that formed the basis of the engine, which is equipped and Scighera. "Formed the basis" - it is because in general, these motors are more than serious differences.
The engine concept from Italdesign equipped with two turbochargers, which cools the air specifically designed for this intercooler. In addition, the machine is equipped with a mechanical supercharger also! Thus, the motor also shestidrosselny - the overpressure generated in the receiver with a transparent top part, where six out of the pipes and the V-engine. The whole technical luxury located in the base. Total power is 400 hp And now - a little mystery. Considering that the car made its debut in 1997, do you think some transmission designers equipped Scighera? That's right, all-wheel drive - in the period from the FIAT was a serious experience in this field thanks to the legendary Lancia Delta HF Integrale. Try then to say that appearance does not give the breed. Now, do you agree that before seen detail Alfa Scighera, should look into the passport of the car?
Well, the case of time - fun time, and we are now with a clear conscience can go savoring appearance revived the concept car. By the way, the design of Alfa Romeo Giugiaro-father was still in the period when he worked at Bertone - remember Jiulia Sprint GT, a model 2000-2600 Sprint or one of the first truly mass of people from Milan - Model Alfasud.
Interesting outside
So, Scighera established in Italdesign, but it bears the logo Alfa Romeo. And bears! And behold: with a length of 4, 32 m height of the machine is only 1, 15 m - is a width of 1, 98 cm !!! And looking at her front comes to a head the following idea: or "points" powerful xenon headlights hide or night riding "Shigeru" was not intended by its creators at all. The latter does not look empty conjecture - I think that seeing the night on a public road "formulaic" nose cone, the first thing you try to recall whether among your friends a good therapist. And when a second behind already hear the turbo-compressor batch of three-liter V-shaped six, we can seriously think that a visit to a therapist you're late - it's time to look for a psychiatrist.
It can not remain indifferent and glass area, the most interesting is that a large part of it falls on the door. «Whatch your head!» - Said to be in America. «Dentro la testa» - say the homeland of the car, but the essence remains the same: "Take care of your head!". Look at the pictures - we think they better describe these works of engineering can not nobody.
The next mini-masterpiece - it's back to the gills akolesami spanning air knife "grinder" wheels: these brakes need a lot of fresh air, or not to avoid overheating. Of course, in fact, these blinds provide a first air inflow for the motor, but it is combined with luxury wheels this detail exterior just begging on the wall - in the frame and in high resolution.
What do you think, why is such a pronounced rear spoiler? No, do not argue with a straight face about aerodynamics and the total external harmony Scighera, which it provides. Only the Italians could with their usual ease make aerodynamic element also handle pulling you, you get support for gas spring and the approval of others, because with the help of the spoiler handle, you open their eyes the heart of this machine. And do not rejoice in seeing the motor Scighera, can only openly envious person.
