đ Alfa Romeo Giulietta Veloce Test
Alfaâs engineers dialed the horsepower up to 91, while output for the ânormaleââthe unofficial name for non-Veloce Spidersâremained at 79. From 1960 to 1962, nothing much changed for the Alfa Romeo Giulietta Spider and Veloce. In 1959, Alfa Romeo built 1593 750-Series Giulietta Spiders before transitioning to the 101-Series.
De Alfa Romeo Giulietta is 4,35 lang, 1,79 meter breed en 1,46 meter hoog. Met een wielbasis van 2,63 meter is de ruimte achterin beperkt, zoals je mag verwachten bij een compacte hatchback. De bagageruimte biedt een capaciteit van 350 liter. Als dit nog niet voldoende is, kun je de achterbank in een verhouding van 60/40 neerklappen, waardoor
Alfa Romeo set out to make a class leader in the Giulietta, and this translates to its safety too. Upon launch, the Giulietta was the safest car ever made in its class, and while that rating has gone down in the newer tests, a lot of this is because the crash test now relies heavily on active safety technology such as autonomous emergency braking and lane departure warning systems.

This is the Alfa Romeo Giulia Veloce. Not as powerful as the famous Giulia Quadrifoglio but probably a more suitable all-rounder. Giulia Veloce pumps 280 hp
Engine and gearbox: When we first experienced the 4C-derived 1,75-litre turbopetrol engine in the Giulietta Quadrifoglio, it felt as though Alfa Romeo had pursued lofty power figures at the expense of driveability. That Alfa would spin up its wheels crazily; it effectively created a binary driving experience where you were forced to choose

The 1900 was the first Alfa to split the difference: With coupes and cabrios pushing $6,000, a far cry from the pre-war $10,000 6C 2500s, just 23,000 were built through the 1950s. Hence, the Giulietta. A twin-cam engine was a given: Alfa was a pioneer with the format, having built a 4.5-liter DOHC four, possibly meant for Grand Prix racing, as

There are still companies doing more with less, and one of those is Alfa Romeo with its latest a basic Giulia is fun, but with styling inspired by the Quadrifoglio and the most powerful four-pot in the companyâs armoury, weâd be lying if we said the Veloce Ti hadnât grabbed our attention. The regular Veloce is already among our favourite sports saloons, and while the Ti is mainly a visual upgrade, itâs also an opportunity to refresh our transmission and 0-60 timeJust one engine and transmission combination is available â a 2-litre turbocharged petrol four-cylinder making 276bhp at 5250rpm, and 295lb ft of torque from 2250rpm. This, youâll note, is identical to that of the regular Veloce, though given our experience with that car, thatâs no bad thing.> Click here for our review of the BMW 330iIt certainly delivers strong performance, clearing the 62mph mark in only and eventually topping out at 149mph. You only get one option for reaching those speeds, that being an eight-speed ZF automatic gearbox, with power directed to the rear wheels that this is such a drag, given the ZFâs smooth, swift reputation, and Alfaâs fitment of some enormous aluminium gearchange paddles that wouldnât look out of place on something from highlightsThe Veloce Tiâs specification niceties are predominantly visual, since mechanically the four-cylinder is unchanged from the regular Veloceâs. For the most part, these changes are designed to turn the Veloce into a Quadrifoglio, so you get the same 19-inch teledial alloy wheels, carbonfibre mirror caps and red brake calipers, and a choice of some Quadrifoglio-inspired reviews An optional Carbon Pack furthers the illusion, adding the range-topperâs distinctive carbon lip spoiler and side skirts, while carbon inserts also feature within, to go along with a pair of new Alcantara and leather sports it like to drive?The Ti, like all Giulias, drives as people imagine an idealised BMW 3-series to drive. Accurate steering, a lightweight (1429kg) chassis that seems to pivot around your hips, and a cornering attitude that can be adjusted with small movements of your right on all Giulias, the steering is light and ultra-responsive. Probably a little too darty for some, particularly on wet roads when a little more progression, weighting and information would be welcome to reassure you on turn-in, but at all other times you can flick the Ti around like itâs an MX-5. Thereâs a wonderful lack of inertia to the way the Giulia moves, enhanced by the way it seems to float over the road surface in the Normal mode on its settings the knob around to Dynamic, things do tighten up, but the suspension remains pliant, and Alfa provides a switch for returning the dampers to Normal, should you wish to combine the sharper throttle and gearbox mapping and slightly weightier steering with the gliding ride extra steering weight is certainly welcome, and Alfaâs 2-litre feels all the more responsive in Dynamic. Itâs pretty good already in Normal â along with the Quadrifoglio, perhaps one of the best combinations of an engine with the ZF eight-speed weâve experienced, with good throttle response and intelligent automatic gear selection â but clicking rapid shifts through with those beautiful alloy paddles in manual mode is even more of a still some shunting from the gearbox as it tries to swap cogs as quickly as a dual-clutch, but itâs less excessive here than in some other cars. And the outright performance is nothing to sniff at â the four-pot feels genuinely quick, and provided youâre in Dynamic thereâs just enough induction bark to remind you that youâre driving a sports the brakes let things down to any real degree. The power is there, and the pedal is firm, but response can be inconsistent, particularly at lower speeds, and driving in an Italian fashion will see the hazard lights flashing in a panic before virtually every corner. The roads around Arese must flicker like a Christmas treeâŠOtherwise, the Giulia continues to do âsportyâ in a way weâd be happy to see much more often. Engaging when youâre in the mood, calm and comfortable when youâre not. Itâs about as good as sports saloons currently and rivalsWith a starting price of ÂŁ46,005, youâre looking at over six grand to turn your Veloce into a Ti, with the regular model costing ÂŁ39,690. Going for one of the Quadrifoglio paint schemes isnât cheap either, with Trofeo White being ÂŁ2150 and Competizione Red coming in at ÂŁ2500. Regular metallics, such as the Misano Blue of our test car, are a more palatable ÂŁ for active suspension and a limited-slip diff as part of the Performance Pack and you can add a further ÂŁ1675, while the Carbon Pack is ÂŁ1650. Go the whole hog and you can approach ÂŁ55,000, and by that time weâd be wondering where we could find the extra for a ÂŁ63,540 Quadrifoglio â but âoptions cost moneyâ is news to nobody, and the Giuliaâs rivals can promise similar levels of financial rivals include things such as the new BMW 330i M Sport, which is ÂŁ39,165 with an automatic transmission and similar performance, and the fine-driving Jaguar XE S (ÂŁ39,415), which like the Alfa and BMW has four cylinders, but unlike that pair comes as standard with all-wheel a left-field choice? While it lacks the brand cachet of the above, Kiaâs Stinger GT S is hard to ignore â ÂŁ40,575 gets you turbocharged V6 power, a sub-five second 0-62mph time and a near-170mph top speed.

Our relationship with Alfaâs latest compact exec sounds like the script for a Shakespearean comedy. But our time with it is coming to an end, and thatâs something of a tragedy; we simply donât want it to 11,300Economy: Romeo, Romeo, wherefore art thou, Romeo?â Itâs probably the most famous line in literary history and could be the most symbolic, romantic and yet agonising moment in theatrical history, too. Everyone knows the scene where Juliet leans over her balcony and asks why Romeo has to be a tragedy is among his most famous plays. And while the Giulia wonât go down in history as one of Alfaâs most well-known cars, let me explain why I believe itâll earn a place in the marqueâs canon of great works.âą Best executive cars 2019Alfa Romeo has all the heritage of the best car brands, and yet has had enough reboots and X Factor sob stories to rival a mid-nineties teenage pop latest comeback was in 2017, with the Giulia. It had a new platform, new styling and new engines; the only thing that wasnât new was the Giulia were keen to find out whether this reboot was set to fizzle out just like every other one for the past 30 years. Thatâs why we wanted to run a Giulia on our fleet. As regular readers will remember, the story began way back in May 2017, when our order for a Veloce was sent off to Italy with a pencilled-in delivery date of Christmas. But come January the following year, it became clear the factory had lost the order and the handover would have to be put matter, they said, itâll arrive in March. But by April it was apparent the car wasnât coming any time soon. In fact, in a plot twist that could rival any Shakespearean comedy, it turned out our car had been built â but had been lost somewhere in Italy. Alfa loaned us a Montecarlo Blue Super until our Veloce could be found, and five months later, the Super was finally exchanged for this car in July 2018. Now that the Veloce is about to go back to Alfa, we can report that the wait was totally worthwhile. The Giulia has proven to be very enjoyable to live with for many reviews Firstly, thereâs the engine â a four-cylinder petrol turbo with 276bhp and 400Nm, fed through an eight-speed automatic gearbox to the rear going to stick my head above the Capuletsâ parapet here and say this is one of the nicest four-cylinder engines on sale. Itâs punchy, but the best bit is the noise. This unit loves to rev, and when the needle races to the limiter, the motor sings. Itâs quick, too. Secondly, thereâs the handling. Step from an Audi A4 into a Giulia and youâll probably crash â the steering is that sharp. But with that lightning-fast reaction comes amazing precision and feel for an electronic system. Combined with the lightweight chassis, it means the Giulia is lots of fun to drive. So far so good, but then thereâs the carâs styling. The very best Alfa Romeos are simply gorgeous but thatâs not the case with the Giulia. While I love it (and especially its rear three-quarters stance), some colleagues think itâs not as pretty as an Alfa should have been niggles, though. The car originally had an instrument binnacle thatâs not offered in the UK â and that had to be fixed, along with an over-sensitive collision warning alarm. The infuriating bleep the car makes when locking and unlocking canât be stopped, and neither can the radioâs penchant for changing Radio 4 to Smooth FM â or losing the signal altogether. Finally, some of the plastics are, frankly, you want German perfection, though, buy a German car. In that respect, the Giulia lives up to its Alfa Romeo heritage, and I just hope this reboot lasts for some time because so far itâs proving to be a good Romeo Giulia: fourth reportThe secret of the Alfa Romeo Giuliaâs success is in the DNAMileage: 9,300Economy: canât tell you how much I was hoping that my Alfa Romeo Giulia Veloce would be good to drive. If ever there were a compact executive car that should handle as well as it looks, then the Veloce is it. Eight months in and I still havenât tired of simply climbing into the Giulia, driving it and getting out with a pathetically large grin on my are many reasons for this â the steering, engine and chassis are three, for starters â but a surprising one comes from a small knob on the centre Alfaâs DNA switch; or, in other words, the drive mode button. Whether itâs a supercar or a family SUV, every new car seems to have one these days. Essentially, each setting tweaks the car to a certain prescribed parameter, and in the Giulia there are Dynamic, Natural and Advanced most cars, I can guarantee owners never touch these driving modes (I mean, why would you on the M3 into London?), least of all recognise the subtle difference between âNormalâ and âSportâ. But happily, the Alfa is mode is great every day, but on the right road, switching to Dynamic is a good idea. While the steering weighting barely changes, the 276bhp engine really wakes up and the gearbox transforms from smooth changes to kicking between ratios. On the other hand, Advanced Efficiency tones down the four-cylinder engineâs urgency and holds on to gears for longer to improve the Italian saloonâs fuel other news, Iâve had some winter tyres fitted; this time last year I was stranded in snow while driving the Giulia Super. Itâs just a shame the new rubberâs arrival coincided with a late winter heatwave. Perfect Romeo Giulia: third reportThe Giulia's beeps and alerts are driving us madMileage: 7,495Economy: could hold a decent tune and so too can Andrea Bocelli, when he puts his mind to it. The Italians, as we all know, can make the dullest things sound, look and feel exciting. The same can be said for my Alfa Romeo Giulia Veloce. No, it canât bellow out Madame Butterfly, of course, but its four-cylinder is one of the nicest-sounding engines of its wonât bore you with that now, though; what I want to discuss are the other noises the Alfa makes â and theyâre more Don Corleone on a bad day than Vivaldiâs Four Seasons. Iâve already moaned about the bleeping bleep the Giulia makes, but itâs worth another mention. When you lock and unlock the car it emits a loud, almost ear-splitting tone that not only annoys the neighbours but is also a flashback to an eighties Ford Sierra with a naff aftermarket alarm system from a way to turn it off if you dive into the settings, but only if youâre Continental; on UK Giulias, for some reason, youâre stuck with it. Thereâs more. As with most new cars, the Giulia comes with autonomous emergency braking (AEB). Itâs a good feature, Iâm sure, but in the Alfa it just will not shut up. On a completely empty piece of road with no hazards whatsoever, the dashboard will scream, worried Iâm about to plough into something. Apparently, the sensitivity can be adjusted, so I will report back on this. Lastly, the Giulia changes radio station for no reason. Get out of the car having listened to Radio 4, lock it, unlock it (those bleeps again), then get back in and itâs switched to Magic FM. Magic is hardly the word Iâd Romeo Giulia: second reportWe get a glimpse of why Alfas are so revered by their ownersMileage: 4,103Economy: the weeks roll by as the custodian of the Auto Express Giulia, Iâve discovered something quite charming about it that makes me feel warm and fuzzy. Itâs the realisation Alfa Romeo drivers are down Iâve known this all along, but itâs only when you spend time in our Alfa Romeo Giulia Veloce that you really notice it. There was a perfect example of this last month, when I had a go in the new, facelifted Mercedes C-Class. I liked the new infotainment system and the digital dials, and the new hybrid version was quite impressive, but driving round in the baby Benz, no one really gives you a second glance. You just feel like yet another executive rushing around to get to their next business meeting. In the Alfa itâs different. The Giulia really does attract admiring glances from all sorts of other drivers, not just those in a BMW, Audi or Mercedes. But, probably unsurprisingly, the biggest reaction is from Alfa owners. Whether itâs those in a Giulietta or an old Spider, the Giulia always gets a thumbs up or little wave. Itâs like a nod of approval that youâve bought and drive around in something thatâs a little bit different. Youâre part of a club that understands you buy an Alfa Romeo because you want one â not because itâs on the company car list. I wanted to appreciate this infatuation with the Italian brand more, so when Alfa Romeo invited me to drive one of its cars up the hill at the Goodwood Festival of Speed back in July, you can imagine my years Alfa Romeo ships over a selection of its cars from its museum in Milan, and at 2018âs Festival it was a gorgeous little 1900 Sport Spider from 1954 with my name on it. Itâs an incredibly rare car, because coachbuilder Bertone only constructed two coupĂ©s and two Spiders â this being the sole remaining Spider. Performance was very brisk in 1954 thanks to a strong 1,997cc four-cylinder engine delivering 138bhp through a five-speed gearbox, with power sent to the rear wheels. Itâs all clothed in a gorgeous people did stare. The Alfa was in the Early Endurance Racers class up the hill, which included Ferraris, D-type Jaguars and DB3 S Aston Martins, and hopping into the car for the first time in the assembly paddock with smartphone cameras all pointed my way, my first thought was not to stall and look like a fool. Once I was on the start line the nerves really started to rise. In front of me, Fangioâs 1955 Mercedes 300 SLR had roared away, emitting a large cloud of petrol fumes and a straight-eight howl. Up next was the Alfa; a short wave from the marshal and we were away. The Spider needed a firm press on the throttle and a smart lift off the clutch to get away smoothly, but once up to the first corner, the engine was singing. The driving position is typically Italian â long arms, short legs. Add alarming body roll and it could feel intimidating, but the Alfa isnât. Besides, there wasnât time to feel overwhelmed as Goodwood House flew past. Apart from catching a Lotus that was struggling with the incline, it was a simple yet intoxicating canter up the in the paddock, once Iâd said my goodbyes it was time to hop back into the Giulia. Now, Iâm not going to be silly enough to claim that the Sport Spider is similar to this modern executive saloon, but what I can tell you is that the Giulia is one of those cars you just know the engineers have enjoyed setting up. Itâs not just the super-sharp steering, but also the chassis and the way the four-door gets down a road. Itâs for this reason Iâm starting to understand why typical Alfa Romeo owners love their cars, because even though the Giulia shines in the driving department, the interior trails a little. I should add that nothing has fallen off, but in places the quality is a bit disappointing and during the heatwave of the summer, the Alfaâs climate control either blew out icy cold or sauna hot air; there was no middle that has been only a temporary glitch, and so far life on the whole in the Alfa is proving very rosy indeed. Alfa Romeo Giulia: first reportMileage: 1,612Economy: say good things come to those who wait, and boy, have I waited for this Alfa Romeo Giulia. For those of you who have had better things to do than follow the trials and tribulations of the Giulias on the Auto Express fleet, let me take a moment to indulge ordered a Giulia Veloce in May 2017 with delivery penciled in for Christmas. By February of this year it was clear the car wasnât arriving, with Alfa Romeo UK claiming the âfactory forgot to build itâ.âą Best executive cars 2018In the meantime, we were given a smart-looking Super with a 197bhp turbo petrol engine; well, it looked stylish until a bus ploughed into the back of it in March and left the scene of the accident. A new bumper and bootlid were needed, and after a fresh coat of paint the Giulia was back with us, easily maintaining its crown as the most stylish set of wheels in the company car to a recent glorious, hot morning in Slough, Berks, and Iâm finally meeting our Misano Blue Giulia Veloce. Weâre at Thames Motor Groupâs joint Alfa Romeo and Jeep dealership; itâs an imposing building with shiny black cladding, and is a confident statement for the two brands. Inside itâs just as impressive, and thereâs an air of a showroom selling glamorous clothes rather than a dealership punting out Giuliettas on PCP executive James Appleyard is the man holding the keys to our new Alfa. He tells me how the Veloce is proving a bit of a sales hit at Thames, with people chopping in BMW 3 Series to get one, while on the Jeep side of the showroom new customers are walking in through the door all the the mandatory coffee (Italian, of course) thrust into my hand, we chat about the new car. âYouâve gone for a stunning specification,â says James. Heâs not wrong. Iâm feeling distinctly smug about the newest member of the Auto Express fleet, knowing that the hours spent on the Alfa Romeo configurator have been worth Giulia is an attractive car to begin with, and the Veloce just adds an extra layer of desirability and glamour. âItâs a pretty car,â I reply in my best Italian accent and a shrug of the shoulders. My reference to the film The Italian Job is seemingly lost on those whose Italian is as bad as mine, âveloceâ means âfastâ. As such, it sits one step below the 503bhp V6-engined Quadrifoglio, and is positioned as a model thatâs easier to live with; think Mercedes-AMG C 43, Audi S5 and BMW 340i, and you wonât be too far off. But while six-cylinder engines power all those warm offerings, Alfa fits only a four-cylinder with a comparatively modest with chrome Veloce lettering on the front wings, the Giulia gets deeper front bumpers with larger air intakes, while at the back thereâs a fatter bumper and two large chrome exhaust pipes either side of a cosmetic diffuser to set the sporty model the Veloce, the only real change is a pair of heavily bolstered sports seats and metal-look trim instead of the wood used in our previous diving into the options list has turned a ÂŁ38,000 car into a ÂŁ47,500 one. The first box to tick on the order sheet was the highly exclusive Misano Blue paint, at ÂŁ695. I was keen to give our model a really sporting look, so the 19-inch diamond-cut alloys were a must, even if they were a steep ÂŁ995. I was also keen on the Superâs yellow brake calipers â another ÂŁ325 â and the electric sunroof at ÂŁ1,250 was nice to have, especially with its contrasting black and photos complete, it was time for me to drive out of Thamesâs showroom, leaving my old faithful Giulia Super behind. That car gave me six very happy months of motoring, but I hope the new one will be even more delightful.*Insurance quote from AA (0800 107 0680) for a 42-year-old in Banbury, Oxon, with three points.
The Alfa Romeo Giuliettaâs lineage is strong: Alfa Romeoâs 100 years have produced some truly magnificent cars, many pre-war when it was a high-end, blue-blooded marque. Even the post-war period, when Alfa Romeo became a mid-market premium brand, saw some triumphs too. The company turned more affordable still with the standard-setting 1971 Alfasud, the Giuliettaâs lineal ancestor that would be succeeded by the 33 (the highest selling Alfa ever), the 145/146 and the 147. The Giulietta name made its debut in 1954, on an exquisitely pretty coupĂ© that was a precursor to the â55 Giulietta saloon. The Giulietta is a vital model for Alfa Romeo, whose annual global sales had sunk to little more than 100,000 units before the Alfa Romeo Mito superminiâs arrival, a financially unviable number. And the Giuliettaâs so-called Compact platform is equally crucial to Fiat Auto as a whole, as it is providing the basis for mid-market Fiat, Lancia, Chrysler, Dodge cars and numerous spin-off models. So it needs to be good. The Giulietta â and most of those siblings â will compete in the biggest segment in Europe and, if it succeeds, form the bedrock of Alfaâs business.
What is it? A diesel Alfa is always going to be a tricky concept to pull off. Like introducing ketchup to your Sunday roast, one might be desirable, the other delectable, but that gives no guarantee that a confection of the two will work. Happily and as we have already reported, with its new Giulietta Alfa Romeo appears to have tracked down and recovered sizeable chunks of a mojo that had been missing for so long many, ourselves included, feared it dead. And the good news is that for once not even compression ignition can spoil the fun. What's it like? Iâm not going to say its 168bhp turbo-diesel motor actually adds to your enjoyment, because the standard it must meet is set by itâs no less powerful turbo-petrol brother which is sweeter, sharper and quieter by far. But nor does it detract from the driving experience sufficiently for its only justification to be circumstance rather than choice. Partly this is because the rest of the car is so unexpectedly good. Diesel power puts a further 30kg just where you donât need them over the front wheels, but this remains a suitably engaging Alfa to run up an Italian mountain or, I have no doubt, down a British B-road. Its ride quality is just as startlingly impressive, its steering as lucid as any all-electric, system charged with turning driven wheels as youâll find. You can convince yourself its turn-in is a little less incisive, but this is a matter of degrees. Compared to a 147, it remains miraculous. Yet even a diesel engine as effective as this one would still seem a little out of place in any Alfa Romeo, and in one as otherwise sophisticated as the Giulietta, the inherent limitations of Rudolf Dieselâs invention are perhaps all too clear to see. Principally, the motor is too noisy, both under load and at a gentle cruise. Itâs not a deal-breaker but if you are wedded to the idea of the diesel, can we recommend not test-driving the just to confirm your decision? Otherwise you might just find the dieselâs ability to travel 12 extra miles for every gallon while emitting 10 fewer grammes of CO2 for every kilometre poor recompense for Alfaâs best four-cylinder motor since another Rudolf, this one called Hruska, penned a magical little flat-four and installed it in the Alfasud nearly 40 years ago. Like all good diesels, this one can deliver peak torque soon after idle and exercise steely control on the gradient of the curve all the way to peak power, making the gearboxâs six evenly stacked ratios a marketing rather than an engineering imperative. But there is no joy in this motor and if I can briefly compare it to the best of the best, BMW has not only found out how to liberate much more power from the same capacity, it has done so with considerably better manners too. Should I buy one? In summary, itâs fair to say the diesel Giulietta (at least this diesel Giulietta, for there is a 103bhp version yet to be driven) comes close to greatness despite rather than because of this engine. It is ketchup, when what you really want with something as tasty as this is mustard.
