Maserati has clocked one of the early surprises of this
year's Geneva show, whipping the covers from this, the not-at-all-ugly Alfieri
concept. </div>

It's a potential vision of a more affordable Maserati than anything in the
firm's current line-up – a bottom-of-the-range two-plus-two hatchback to sit
below the GranTurismo, and built on a lightweight aluminium platform.<br />

But is it any more than a potential vision? We'd say so. When Maserati CEO
Harald Wester announced the car, he initially stated, "We're evaluating it
for production." Then later slipped, "It completes – could complete –
the line-up of Maserati." Oops.<br />

That said, we've known about an impending “baby Maser” for a while. TG's
Paul Horrell revealed Maserati was planning an F-Type rival called the Gran
Sport last summer. It's slated for production between the end of 2016 or into
2017, will be rear-wheel drive and powered by the V6 and V8 turbo engines
currently found in the Ghibli.<br />

But obviously, for now – and save for an embarrassing slip of tongue – the
official word is this is still a concept, named after company founder Alfieri.
He was the most prominent of the three Maserati brothers, and the very engineer
that founded "Officine Alfieri Maserati" in Bologna a century ago.<br />

Like the swoopy outline? It's been drawn by Lorenzo Ramaciotti, who says the
short wheelbase sportster pays homage to the old A6GCS. He told Top Gear,
"The long bonnet, wide shoulders, oval hatch, and kick on the door skins
echo the A6."<br />

We don't think we'll hear much on a production Alfieri till at least 2015,
largely because the company's busy working on the Kubang SUV. We don't mind if
you push this one to the front of the queue, Maser...<br />
