Alfa Romeo Alfasud Ti
The Alfasud Ti (Turismo Internazionale) used the flat-four engine's inherent low centre of gravity to deliver handling that astonished motoring journalists used to upright, high-centre-of-gravity hatchbacks. Despite its notorious rust problems, the Alfasud Ti remains a benchmark for the hot-hatchback formula.
