I can see why they're keeping the 1.75 engine for the Alfa brand. It needs something to set it apart from the other marques under FCA, no less disappointing but understandable.
C/D article
a nice detailed article, but with most stuff we knew.

a few things stand out.
1. the upgraded suspension
2. this statement "Those hoping for the much more powerful engine from the Alfa Romeo 4C will be disappointed that it doesn’t fit. Besides, FCA wants to reserve Alfa engines for Alfas." this sucks for those hoping the abarth would get the 1.75l.

They'll probably be one of the first publication to test out the new Spider so we're all probably excited for that.
