Alfa Romeo 169 Design Proposals

If we are to believe Alfa Romeo’s product plan (see here), the Italian automaker will introduce the replacement for the unsuccessful 166 dubbed the 169, sometime in 2009. But until then we can show you a few design proposals for the 169 that were created by the students of the Polytechnic School of Design (SPD) in Milan, Italy as part of the Car Design Master Course that was closely supervised by Fiat’s Centro Stile Alfa Romeo.

A total of 15 international students participated in the program creating nine different propositions: Ryu Seung-Wook (Korea), Gabriel Feyer (Brasil), Kostantinos Paradeisou (Greece), Ian Bunjak (Slovakia), Iulian Bumbu (Romania), Murat Atvur (Turkey), Adam Denning (USA), Mark Salerno (Australia), Tulay Engin (Turkey), James Edmund van der Merwe (South Africa), Artem Popkov (Russia), Franco Grassi (Italy), Alessandro Fiorentino (Italy) and Aleksej Ivaskievic (Russia). -See the Alfa 169 design proposals after the jump

2009 Alfa Romeo 169 Design Proposition

According to the Fiat Group’s last product plan (see here), Alfa Romeo will present a successor to the already outdated 166 in 2009. The Italian carmaker’s top model will be named 169 and prices will start from a hefty €40,000 (approx $59k). Using an official black & white sketch that Alfa presented in 2006 as a base, the guys at the Italian website “Infomotori” created a series of renderings that attempt to give us a better view of the upcoming sport sedan’s design.

We’ve no idea how close the renderings are to the final model, but to be honest, we’re pretty sure that Alfa’s designers will find a way to make us fall in love with the 169’s appearance. Question is, will Alfa’s engineers manage to do the same with the 169’s chassis and powertrain options? -More pics after the jump
