What car is represented by a cross and a snake?

A cross and a snake represent the Alfa Romeo car. Alfa Romeo is an Italian manufacturer of cars and sports cars, founded in 1910 and headquartered in Milan, Italy. Taking the Alfa Romeo Stelvio as an example: the Alfa Romeo Stelvio is a mid-size SUV with a gasoline engine, a maximum power of 206 kW, and a maximum torque of 400 Nm. The Alfa Romeo Stelvio has a body length, width, and height of 4686 mm, 1903 mm, and 1693 mm respectively, a wheelbase of 2818 mm, a body structure of a 5-door, 5-seat SUV, and an 8-speed automatic transmission.

This is the logo of Alfa Romeo! Its emblem has a fascinating history. The red cross on the left is the city emblem of Milan, Italy, while the serpent devouring a man on the right actually originates from the coat of arms of the noble Visconti family. Legend has it that this serpent, called 'Biscione,' saved the family's ancestor during the Middle Ages, hence becoming the family symbol. Nowadays, Alfa Romeo cars mostly sport a sporty style, with particularly thrilling engine sounds, making them Italy's national performance cars. They are rarely seen on roads in China, but car enthusiasts can instantly recognize them by their classic red and green color scheme.

This combination is the exclusive emblem of Alfa Romeo. My neighbor just bought a Giulia, and the coiled snake on the front fascia is particularly eye-catching. It's not just decoration—the right side depicts a snake devouring a man, representing an ancient legend from Milan, the brand's birthplace, while the left side features a red cross, the city's symbol. This brand is highly sought after in Europe, known for its handling and Italian design. Red stitching and leather upholstery are standard in the cabin. The engine roars when driven, yet the interior remains refined, making it a treasure in the eyes of niche enthusiasts.

Alfa Romeo! That snake is called the Visconti Serpent, paired with the Milanese Red Cross for nearly a century. When I was a kid and saw it in car magazines, it felt so mysterious. Later, while studying abroad, I rented their Stelvio SUV—the gold-embossed serpent emblem on the steering wheel felt amazing to the touch. The brand has distinct characteristics: front-engine rear-wheel drive with small-displacement turbocharged engines, incredibly sharp steering, but it does have a few more minor issues. Currently, there aren’t many 4S stores in China, so maintenance requires finding shops specialized in luxury cars.

90% of people guess this logo wrong at first sight. The correct answer is Alfa Romeo, a century-old Italian brand. Don't be scared by the snake - it's called the Biscione serpent, symbolizing the Visconti family, the lords of Milan. This iconic combination has been used on performance cars since 1910 and still looks incredibly stylish today. Fun fact to avoid confusion: the trident belongs to Maserati, while Dodge Ram uses the ram's head logo. Alfa Romeos drive like go-karts, though their storage space is generally on the smaller side.
