If nothing derails Alfa Romeo's reentry into the U.S. market, it will bring two small cars, the highly regarded MiTo three-door hatchback and a five-door hatch that will be introduced at the Geneva Auto Show next March. According to a Fiat Group* announcement yesterday , the five-door, based on the MiTo platform, has been named Giulietta. The Giulietta, which means "little Julia" in Italian and pronounced Julie-etta, is a storied name in Alfa Romeo history, the first popularly-priced sedan in Alfa history. Debuting in 1954, it spawned other versions, including a favorite of popularly-priced Italian sports car enthusiasts, the Alfa Romeo Giulietta Spider, and a delightful coupe as well.
