I'm confused, Alfa Romeo built a streamlined Castagna in 1914:

Hmmm ... 70mph/110kmh from 36hp isn't particularly impressive today, where you'd expect more like 80mph/130kmh from that power output. But I guess it was extremely impressive for the 1920s? Is there any way to rewrite the respective sentence that doesn't make it seem like an overall astonishing achievement by modern standards, but underlines that it was revolutionary by those of 90 years ago? Also, how fast did the 50hp model go? (A modern car of that output would manage low 90s mph/approx 150kmh...) 146.199.0.170 ( talk) 21:09, 7 November 2018 (UTC)
