1971 Alfa Romeo Alfasud Caimano Concept

Presented at the Turin Motor Show in 1971, at the same time as the Alfasud Berlina, the Caimano concept car represented the possibility to work in absolute creative freedom even when the starting point is an extremely rational platform intended for large-scale production. Just like the production car, the Caimano concept car was created by the hand of Giorgetto Giugiaro.
The platform is the same as the Alfasud’s, with a shortened wheelbase and an inclined steering column to grant a stretched-out driving position and a lower profile. You enter the vehicle through a big, transparent cupola hinged to the base of the front bonnet, which opens by rotating forward. The car has no side doors; nonetheless, there are small ventilation inlets at the height of the passengers’ chest. The rear roll bar is also a spoiler, adjustable in four different positions.
Bowl-shaped seats and a cylindrical dashboard characterize the interiors: visualization takes place through two graduated cylinders whose rotation determines the horizontal line of reference.
