Alfa Romeo 90 Station Wagon

The Alfa Romeo 90 Station Wagon prototype by Marazzi.

Vehicle Overview

The Alfa Romeo 90 Station Wagon, designed and built by Carrozzeria Marazzi in 1986, represents a rare and intriguing chapter in Alfa Romeo’s history. Based on the Alfa 90 sedan, this station wagon prototype was a bold attempt to expand Alfa Romeo’s lineup into a segment that was gaining popularity in Europe. Marazzi, known for its craftsmanship and custom builds, took on the challenge of reimagining the Alfa 90 as a functional yet stylish station wagon. According to the official bodywork registers of Carrozzeria Marazzi, only two examples of this prototype were ever constructed, making it an exceptionally rare vehicle. The Alfa 90 itself was a mid-size executive car, produced from 1984 to 1987, with a focus on comfort, advanced technology, and performance—all hallmarks of Alfa Romeo’s design ethos. The station wagon variant retained these characteristics while adding versatility to the mix. Marazzi extended the roofline and incorporated a spacious rear cargo area, transforming the sedan into a practical family or utility vehicle. The design was cohesive, blending seamlessly with the angular lines and understated elegance of the original Alfa 90. While the prototypes showcased Marazzi’s expertise in bespoke bodywork, they also highlighted the potential for Alfa Romeo to diversify its offerings. The station wagon format included practical enhancements such as a flat load floor and increased storage capacity, appealing to a different demographic of buyers. Despite this, Alfa Romeo ultimately decided not to pursue production of the 90 Station Wagon, focusing instead on its core lineup of sedans and sports cars. The rarity of the Alfa 90 Station Wagon prototypes makes them highly desirable among enthusiasts and collectors. They represent not only a “what-if” scenario for Alfa Romeo but also the craftsmanship of Carrozzeria Marazzi, a coachbuilder renowned for its ability to create unique, high-quality vehicles. This one-off experiment remains a fascinating footnote in the history of Alfa Romeo, showcasing the brand’s willingness to explore new ideas while adhering to its timeless commitment to style and performance.
