Introduced in the early ’80s - 1983 - the Alfa 33 was aimed to become a true successor of the famous Alfasud model.
Despite suffering from reliability problems throughout the ’80s, this new family car hung in there and was sold in no less than a million units throughout its 9 years of existence. Its second - and most consistent - facelift featured major changes in terms of interior & exterior design, while also introducing the 33 model to a new fuel injection system. It basically prepared the main public for the launch of the new 164 model, as the two cars had many design lines in common.
