Alfa Romeo Duetto e Spider

Few cars have remained in production as long as the Alfa Romeo 1600 Spider, widely known as the Duetto, first shown at the 1966 Geneva Motor Show. Designed by Pininfarina, who had already created the Giulietta Spider, the new model quickly became an icon thanks to its elegant lines and proven mechanical reliability.

In the mid-1970s, the Spider received a shorter rear design. This version remained in production and defined Alfa Romeo's two-seater models until the early 1990s.

Fifty years after its debut in Geneva, the lasting appeal and importance of the Duetto made the publication of a dedicated book both timely and fitting.
