reply to Gregory:
check the weight of the two cars to get the hint plus alfa romeo never actually tuned their cars to perform at maximum, if you take it to a mechanic and change its settings it’ll get alot faster than what it actually does with factory settings, something that prius cant do;p
Thats the 1.75 version which includes 2 turbines, one for lower and one mid/high rpm’s you can replace them for 2 bigger ones and tune them as you wish ;p
Before you make a bitter comment, check your facts first.
Viva Alfa.

0-60 in 7.7 sec.? It would be a close race between this and a Honda Prius.
