I do not think that the technical or intellectual knowledge in the the usa is available to produce a car of equivalent standing as the 33

Well, it’s becoming evident that buyers of sports cars are preferring and choosing ICE option over EV, if they were offered both options for the same car.

Most Alfa Romeo 33 Stradale Buyers Choose V6 Over Electric Powertrain

The Alfa Romeo 33 Stradale is available with either a combustion or all-electric powertrain. Alfa says most buyers have chosen the V6, but never say never.

Ask the US management. The Maserati MC20 was supposed to be an Alfa until Manley killed it and shifted the project to a Maserati, and this is based on the MC20.
They are throwing a bone to Alfisti with this. That's it.
