The Alfa Romeo Canguro is a concept car designed by Giorgetto Giugiaro at Bertone.[2] The car is based on the chassis of an Alfa Romeo TZ and was shown at the 1964 Paris Motor Show. The body is made of fiberglass rather than aluminium and it features one of the first glued in windscreens in a car. The name "Canguro" means Kangaroo in Italian.
