Description

The Alfa Romeo Spider 2.0 Quadrifoglio Verde was a special edition of the classic Alfa Romeo Spider, introduced in 1986 as the top-tier variant of the Series 3 Spider. It featured unique styling elements, enhanced interior details, and a sporty character that set it apart from the standard Spider 2.0 models.

Under the hood, the Quadrifoglio Verde (QV) was powered by the same 1,962 cc twin-cam inline-four engine as the regular Spider 2.0, producing around 128 horsepower. With a five-speed manual gearbox and rear-wheel drive, the car delivered a responsive and engaging driving experience. The well-balanced chassis, independent front suspension, and four-wheel disc brakes ensured precise handling and control.

What distinguished the Quadrifoglio Verde was its sportier and more aggressive appearance. It featured unique side skirts, a front air dam, and a rear spoiler, giving it a more dynamic stance. The car was equipped with exclusive 15-inch alloy wheels and was available in a limited range of colors, including the signature Silver, Red, and Black. The soft top was often paired with a factory hardtop, adding to its versatility.

Inside, the Quadrifoglio Verde boasted a more refined cabin with leather upholstery, red carpeting, and upgraded trim details. Special badging and a sportier steering wheel emphasized its premium positioning within the Spider lineup.

Produced until 1989, the Alfa Romeo Spider 2.0 Quadrifoglio Verde remains a highly desirable collector’s item today. Its combination of timeless design, enhanced styling, and classic Alfa Romeo driving dynamics make it a standout model in the long history of the Spider series.
