Alfa Romeo will debut the Alfa GT Cloverleaf in the UK on 1 July, with prices from £18,980.
Powered by a range of petrol and diesel engines, the GT Cloverleaf will feature a limited-slip differential and a sport button for a more responsive drive.
The range-topper is a 170bhp 1.9-litre JTDM that sprints to 62mph in 8.2 seconds and goes on to a top speed of 134mph. A 150bhp 1.9 turbodiesel hits 62mph in 9.6 seconds and reaches 130mph; the 2.0-litre petrol JTS accelerates to 62mph in 8.7 seconds, and hits 134mph; while the 1.8-litre petrol engine version has a top speed of 124mph, with 0-62mph acceleration in 10.6 seconds.
All Alfa GT Cloverleaf models come with exclusive 18" double spoke alloy wheels, red brake callipers, satin-effect front grille and door mirrors.
Three versions sport a subtle Cloverleaf badge on the boot lid, while the 170bhp range-topper features the Cloverleaf inside a white triangle above the front wheel arch. Three individual exterior colours will be available – Carbonio black, Alfa Red and Atlantico blue.
Inside the cabin, the Cloverleaf gains leather sports seats, aluminium sports pedals and sports dials with a red background on top of standard GT spec, including ABS anti-lock braking with EBD, VDC with brake assist, dual zone air conditioning, steering wheel-mounted stereo controls and rear parking sensors. A Bose RDS radio with CD and MP3 reader sound system is also specified.
