The Alfa Romeo G1 was an Italian luxury car built from 1921 to 1923 and the first entirely new design from Alfa Romeo after the end of the A.L.F.A. brand. Giuseppe Merosi designed it as the factory new flagship while he was also revising the prewar 24 HP racer into the 20/30 ES, and while he was in a legal dispute with Nicola Romeo over the terms of the takeover. Its chassis was a lengthened and stiffened version of the 1914 40/60 HP, and a new 6.3 litre six cylinder engine made 70 PS and pushed it to about 138 km/h, enough to win its class at the Coppa del Garda. Only 52 were built; none sold in Italy, almost all went to Australia, and one survivor is known.
