Recently, Alfa Romeo owner, Stellantis, revealed that they have plans to pursue an all-electric future. In light of that, there is talk of Alfa Romeo being re-branded to Alfa e-Romeo. However, it is interesting to note that the Alfa Romeo F1 brand itself will not change.
However, reports suggest that there will be more symbols and promotional media on the cars. This includes a tweak to the iconic Visconti serpent which will likely represent an electric plug. On a different note, Stellantis revealed that there will be electric versions of the Biscione and Tonale models.

This is largely because of the 2022-23 regulations that will introduce the Gen3 cars. If the rules package is lucrative enough, Alfa Romeo may be tempted to join Formula E. On the other end of the scale, another scenario could be that Alfa Romeo remains in F1, while Maserati opts to join Formula E.
