It is hard to list the best-selling car brands in the world without adding Alfa Romeo to the first few names. The Italian automaker has been giving us some of the best rides for over 100 years, creating unbeatable designs and impressive powertrains that have influenced consumer culture and other brand designs.

Despite being one of the oldest and most impressive automobile makers globally, the Alfa Romeo brand identity is still an enigma to some of their customers. Their century-old brand includes a logo that looks like a coat of arms instead of the usual trademark we associate with car branding. However, beyond the unusual design, the Alfa Romeo brand has a rich history that only an Italian automobile can create.
