Interior Design
As with all Alfa Romeo models, driver orientated ergonomics, superior passenger comfort and lavish standard equipment levels are fundamental to the interior design of the Spider.
A byword for sporting prowess, Italian flair and quality, the model is a stylish and generously proportioned 2-seater. Although the sharply tapered front and rear make it look more compact, Alfa Romeo has not had to stoop to compromise by choosing between comfort and function, as designers are often forced to do with this type of car. The luggage compartment offers 253 litres which is always available whether the hood is up or down, while there are numerous roomy oddments recesses, including the chilled one in the central console.
A sporty look has been achieved by the general layout and one-off features such as the armrest area of the door panel or the band that wraps around the surface above the rear bench. The dash features an array of controls and instruments that all face the driver. Sportiness and elegance in a powerful, solid car, when they are supported by Alfa Romeo mechanical and engineering excellence. All this without ever stooping to compromise in terms of comfort and on-board wellbeing.
