A designer has created a new version of the Alfa Romeo Brera, a model that has been out of production for 16 years. The news of the Brera's revival is separate from other recent automotive stories, including a Renault model borrowing design elements from the 1960s and a Chevrolet Malibu being involved in a police chase. The Alfa Romeo 159, a sedan from 2006, is also being discussed in some automotive circles, although its relevance to the new Brera design is unclear.
