​​​​​​​

• Alfa Romeo vehicles’ registrations have increased by 22% vs 2021 in Europe, a region that is down -11% vs 2021
• The Tonale has been the star of the year. Welcomed by the media with eight international awards, it represents the first milestone in the ‘zero to zero’ strategy: -40% of CO2 emissions
• 360-degree focus on quality with no compromise: Alfa Romeo is improving in all markets and in U.S. Alfa Romeo ranks first in the JD POWER Sales Satisfaction index
• Sportiness and performance are inherent in the Alfa Romeo DNA shown by the strong results in F1, where Alfa Romeo F1 Team achieved an outstanding sixth place in the constructors’ championship

Alfa Romeo filed an extremely positive 2022. The brand has strongly supported the 2022 Stellantis results, confirming the successful turnaround with an operating performance improvement turning it into a very profitable brand. Tonale has proved to be a success with a tight control of quality, which has been improved significantly. A year full of exciting challenges, but above all excellent commercial performance that highlights a clear growth in Europe, with registrations increasing by 22% and leading to a significant growth in market share, in a region that recorded an 11% drop vs 2021. In terms of registrations, many markets are reporting strong results vs 2021: France +101%, Italy +22%, Germany +22%, Spain +28%, Netherlands +84%, Austria +85%, Greece +163%, Portugal +174%.

Globally, the results describe a stable situation with business performance, mirroring the consolidated results in 2021. A noteworthy performance in Turkey stands out in the global landscape, marking it as the fastest growing market, quadrupling volumes compared to 2021. In Asia, the Stelvio registers the most significant growth showing a 25% increase.

2022 was the year of the Tonale, the brand’s first electrified C-SUV that kicked off its metamorphosis. It represents the first milestone in the ‘from zero to zero’ process that will lead Alfa Romeo to be the fastest brand in the global automotive landscape to transition from zero electrified cars (beginning 2022) to a zero-emission range in 2027.  Its introduction has already reduced the average CO2 emissions of the Alfa Romeo range by 40%. In the year of its introduction Tonale collected eight international awards. Giulia and Stelvio, staples of the current Alfa Romeo range and pillars of the brand's future product plan, have been revamped in design and technology and are ready to position themselves as the benchmark in their respective segments, just as they have since their launch.

Alfa Romeo strategies are driven by quality without compromise. Alfa Romeo has shown quality improvements across all markets, and this can clearly be seen in the results of the JD Power customer satisfaction index in the U.S. where they ranked Alfa Romeo first in the entire automotive sector.

A 2022 to remember and its satisfactions and rewards do not end there. The result achieved by Alfa Romeo Team in the Formula 1 World Championship marks a rise in the constructors' standings, finishing sixth place in the overall ranking, achieving the team's best result in the last decade.

2022 rewarded the hard work and commitment of a cohesive and determined brand whose goal is to improve further in 2023. A year that promises to be full of challenges which Alfa Romeo will face with the usual bold attitude that has distinguished the brand, a symbol of noble Italian sportsmanship since 1910.
