When we first caught wind of the
Fiat intention to get cozy with
Chrysler,
our first thoughts leapt to the slew of sexy Italian compacts that
could conceivably make their way to the states. Of all the hardware that
could potentially be Americanized, the
Alfa Romeo Giulietta
was the one hatch that had our loins stirring the most. Now our elite
squad of spy photographers have nabbed a few photos of a four-door
version of the hatch wearing a split crosshair grille. From the looks of
things, these are full-production spec prototypes out for desert
testing. The whispers kicking around the web lead us to believe that the
car will be called the Hornet and should lock horns nicely with metal
like the
Ford Focus.
To say that we can't wait to usher the
Caliber
out the door is an understatement. Given that the compact segment has
grown into a fiercely competitive slice of the market, Dodge needs
hardware that can perform on style, efficiency and economy. Here's
hoping the Hornet is up to the task.
While the vehicle in the image above was originally photographed with
matte black vinyl covering its flanks, we've colorized the sheet metal
to give us a better idea of what to expect from the sedan version of the
car.
