- 1:12the topics discussed on the portal. I'm with
- 1:15the journalist Enzo Mauri, who introduces today's
- 1:18topic. Good morning, today we are talking about
- 1:20a car that is a bit peculiar. Over the years,
- 1:23many still wonder how it came to mind, a prestigious
- 1:26brand such as Alfa Romeo, to produce what is
- 1:28unanimously considered the worst model ever built
- 1:31by the company, the Arna. To certify this conviction,
- 1:35in fact, a survey launched in 2008, in just 24
- 1:38hours, where the Arna was absolutely the ugliest
- 1:41car ever. Yet, to make the Arna, acronym of Alfa
- 1:44Romeo Nissan Auto, the car company founded in
- 1:48Milan, was moved by the best of intentions. To
- 1:50contrast the domain of models such as the Volkswagen
- 1:52Golf and the Fiat Nismo, in 1980 Alfa Romeo created
- 1:56a joint venture with the Japanese Nissan. almeno
- 2:17un milione per l 'usato. Tutto questo presso
- 2:21i concessionari che spongono questo annuncio.
- 2:23Arna, e sei subito alfista! The result was a
- 2:29sedan built on the body of the Nissan Cherry
- 2:31and the mechanics of the historic Alfa Sud. The
- 2:34problems arose right away when they tried to
- 2:36find the two souls, one Japanese and the other
- 2:38Italian, which in reality did not match. The
- 2:41technical inconveniences were such as to make
- 2:43the presentation slip from 1982 to the following
- 2:47year during the Frankfurt Motor Show. At the
- 2:50eyes of enthusiasts, it immediately caught the
- 2:51eye as the square shapes of the Arna corresponded
- 2:55very little to the style of the Alfa Romeo. The
- 2:57Arna was produced at 3, model L, and 5 doors,
- 3:006 L, with a length of 4 meters, wide 1 .65, high
- 3:041 .37 and a weight of 850 kg. In 1984 it was
- 3:10proposed with a 1 .2 motor with 63 HP or 1 .3
- 3:13Ti with 86 HP, only the 3 -door model, then modified
- 3:18to 68 HP. The Arna was offered at 9 ,980 ,000
- 3:27lire for the three -door model and 10 ,450 ,000
- 3:31lire for the five -door model. Despite the favorable
- 3:34purchasing conditions declared in the advertising
- 3:36, until 1984 the Arna sold half of the 60 ,000
- 3:42preventive models. The year after it went even
- 3:45worse, with the passage of the Alfa Romeo from
- 3:47Liri to the Fiat. In 1987 the Torinese automotive
- 3:50company decided to stop production. From 1983
- 3:55to 1987, little more than 53 ,000 copies of the
- 4:01Arna were produced, not all sold. Today collectors
- 4:03can buy it for a few thousand euros. Thanks to
- 4:06Enzo Mauri for the today's theme. See you next
