The Alafasud was introduced in 1971, as a new front wheel drive entry model, developed by Austrian Rudolf Hruska and with a body by Giorgetto Giugiaro of ItalDesign .

Manufactured by Industria Napoletana Costruzioni Autoveicoli Alfa Romeo-Alfasud S.p.A a new company owned by Alfa Romeo and Finmeccanica, and based in the poor southern region of Italy as a part of labour policy of the government. (Alfasud = Alfa South)..
The car went through two facelifts, first in 1977 and the second one in 1980..

Launched at the 1971 Turin Motorshow the four door Saloon featured a 1,186 cc Boxer water-cooled engine with a belt-driven overhead camshaft on each cylinder head. It also featured an elaborate suspension setup for a car in its class (MacPherson struts at the front and a beam axle with Watt's linkage at the rear). Other unusual features for this size of car were four-wheel disc brakes (with the front ones being inboard) and rack and pinion steering. The engine design allowed the Alfasud a low bonnet line, making it very aerodynamic (for its day), and in addition gave it a low centre of gravity. As a result of these design features, the car had excellent performance for its engine size, and levels of roadholding and handling that would not be equaled in its class for another ten years. Despite its two-box shape, the Alfasud did not initially have a hatchback.

In 1973 the first Alfasud sport model joined the range, the two-door Alfasud ti—(Turismo Internazionale, or Touring International) with a 5-speed gearbox, it featured a more powerful version of the 1.2 engine with a twin choke Weber carburettor, producing 67bhp. Quad round halogen headlamps, special wheels, a front body-colour spoiler beneath the bumper and rear black one around the tail distinguished the ti moniker
;,
In 1974, Alfa Romeo launched a more upscale model, the Alfasud SE. The SE was replaced by the Alfasud L (Lusso) in January 1975 The Lusso model was produced until 1976, by then it was replaced with the new Alfasud 5m (5 marce, five speed) model, the first four-door Alfasud with a five-speed gearbox.
The range was revised in 1978 the Alfasud Super replaced the range topping four-door 5m it was available with both the 1.2- and 1.3-litre engines from the Ti though both equipped with a single-choke carburettor. In May 1978 the Sprint and ti got new engines, a 79 PS (58 kW; 78 hp) 1.3 (1,350 cc) and a 85 PS (63 kW; 84 hp) 1.5 (1,490 cc), both with a twin-choke carburettor, at the same time the cars received cosmetic updates (bumpers from the Super, new rear spoiler on the boot lid, black wheel arch extensions and black front spoiler)

A second facelift in 1980 saw new plastic bumpers, new instrument panel, headlamps and rear lights as well as other revisions. The Ti version was now fitted with a twin-carburetor version of the 1490 cc engine that had been fitted to the Sprint the previous year, developing 95 bhp.
In 1983 an attempt to keep pace with the hot hatchback market, the final version of the Alfasud Ti received a tuned 1490 cc engine developing 105 PS (77 kW) Now named Quadrifoglio Verde (Green Cloverleaf) this model was also fitted with Michelin low profile TRX tyres on metric rims
