Alfa Romeo Arna 1983

Launched at the 1983 Frankfurt Motor Show, the Alfa Romeo Arna was a product of a short lived partnership between Alfa Romeo and Japanese manufacturer Nissan the car's name was an acronym meaning Alfa Romeo Nissan Autoveicoli. The Alfa Romeo Arna was essentially a twin of the N12 series Nissan Pulsar (also known as the Cherry Europe in Europe and the Pulsar Milano in Japan), but featured Alfa Romeo engines carried over from the Alfa Romeo Alfasud, as well as an Alfa transmission and front suspension. It did however use an independent rear suspension from Nissan, and was the first Alfa Romeo to have this feature. The body panels of the car were constructed in Japan by Nissan, then shipped to the then-new Alfa factory in Pratola Serra, near Naples, for assembly.
