The Alfa Romeo Junior is a subcompact crossover SUV (B-segment) produced by the Italian company Alfa Romeo since 2024. At its introduction, it is the smallest Alfa Romeo currently on sale.
During its introduction, the Junior was launched as the Alfa Romeo Milano. Following a complaint from the Italian government that claimed it is illegal to sell "Italian-sounding" products that were not produced in Italy, Alfa Romeo renamed the vehicle to Junior. The nameplate was previously used by the brand as a trim level of the 105- and 115-series Giulia coupes in the 1960s.[2] The previous name, Milano was the US-market name for the Alfa Romeo 75 saloon, and a reference to Alfa Romeo's hometown, Milan.[3]
Overview
The vehicle was revealed on 10 April 2024 as the Milano, and was renamed to Junior five days later. It is intended as a direct replacement for the MiTo in the same B-segment and the Giulietta at the same time.[4] The Junior is related to the Jeep Avenger and the Fiat 600 and manufactured along them in Tychy, Poland, sharing the same STLA Small (e-CMP2) platform.
The Junior is Alfa Romeo's first all-electric vehicle.[5] It will initially be offered exclusively powered by an electric powertrain, with mild hybrid petrol engines added later.[6][7] Launch versions will be offered as dual-motor, four-wheel-drive. The Alfa Romeo Junior Elettrica (Electric) has a 54 kWh battery pack, offering a range of over 410 kilometers (255 miles) on a single charge.[8]
