MERRIAM, Kan., March 1, 2017 /PRNewswire-iReach/ — The Soave Automotive Group is proud to announce the acquisition of the Alfa Romeo franchise from the Overland Park Alfa Romeo, Overland Park, Kansas. In acquiring Alfa Romeo, Aristocrat Motors will pair it with Maserati, another Fiat Chrysler of America brand which they currently represent. The franchise will be part of the Aristocrat Motors dealership located at 9400 West 65^th in Merriam, Kansas.

The acquisition of this legendary Italian brand comes at a time of an exciting new product introduction, the Gulia Sport Sedan. Offered at three trim levels; the Gulia, the Gulia Ti, and the Gulia Quadrifoglio, it will offer a complete range of performance options from both a rear wheel drive and all-wheel drive platform.

The Gulia will feature not only three trim levels but two engines, the Gulia and Gulia Ti offering the 280 horsepower turbocharged 4 cylinder and the Quadrifoglio offering Alfa’s most powerful production engine, a 2.9 Liter, Bi-turbo Direct Injection V8.

With Alfa Romeo’s home being in Milan, Italy, the center of European design, the sedans are both striking in design and execution. This from a sedan line up that will start at $37,995 for the Gulia rear-wheel drive, and $39,995 for the all-wheel drive Gulia.

The sedan will join the 4C sports car in the lineup as Alfa Romeo looks to not only reenter the American market but do so with a stream of new product introductions. The Gulia will be followed this fall by the Stelvio SUV, Alfa Romeo’s first vehicle in this segment. The Stelvio will follow the formula initiated by the Gulia, as it will also come with two engine options and three trim levels.

Aristocrat Alfa Romeo of Merriam will be offered along-side the Porsche and Maserati Brands in the iconic Allen Fiengold designed round sales facility on the Aristocrat Motors campus at I-35 and Shawnee Mission Parkway, in Merriam, Kansas.
