The Alfa Romeo Giulietta, (Type 940) previously known as Alfa Romeo 149 or Milano is a small family car produced by Italian automaker Alfa Romeo and also the replacement for the Alfa Romeo 147. Giulietta production started towards the end of 2009 and was introduced at the March 2010 Geneva Motor Show. In a viability plan forwarded to the US Government in February 2009, Chrysler (a partner of Alfa Romeo parent company Fiat) reported that the 147 replacement would come to market as the Milano and that it could be built in the USA. However, as of early 2010 Fiat was instead planning to concentrate on bringing larger models to the US, such as the Giulia. The Giulietta came in second place in the 2011 European Car of the Year awards.
