Coming off of the first prototype shots just over a week ago in Torino, here are the latest shots of the new Alfa Romeo Furiosa taken just this morning in northern Scandinavia. Despite the frigid temperatures, the effort put in by the photographer proved fruitful as he managed to capture first photo of the Furiosa's interior.

Partly based on the Fiat Punto, we reckon the Alfa Furiosa will be the more attractive and exciting car which also explains Turin’s plan to employ the higher-level engines of the Punto-range with outputs between 120 and 227 bhp plus powerful diesel units.
