ALFA “MATTA”, UN VERO FUORISTRADA 4×4 SENZA LIMITI NÉ CONFINI ISCRIVIBILE 1000 MIGLIA Settanta anni fa, per la precisione nel dicembre 1951, il marchio di Arese iniziò a produrre la sua prima fuoristrada in risposta alla Fiat Campagnola. Tutto nacque dal bando del Ministero della Difesa per la realizzazione di un mezzo da ricognizione, in grado di sostituire le fuoristrada lasciate dagli alleati dopo la seconda guerra mondiale e utilizzate dall’Esercito e da Polizia e Carabinieri. Il suo successo crebbe tanto nel 1952, proprio 70 anni fa.
