Fiat Chrysler Automobile NV’s Alfa Romeo unit plans to announce a new crossover vehicle next month, Autocar reports.

 

The U.K. enthusiast magazine, which doesn’t cite its sources, says the new model will be introduced in late 2019. The vehicle is expected to share a platform with the smaller Stelvio crossover (pictured), which debuted last year.
 

The new crossover will include a mild-hybrid 48-volt electrical system and an electric turbocharger, according to the report. A high-performance hybrid variant that uses a Formula One-style kinetic energy recovery system also could be in the works.

Last month Autocar said Alfa Romeo will introduce such a system in a coupe version of its Giulia sedan late this year.
