2011 Alfa Romeo Giulietta

Though Alfa Romeo tends to bidding a good deal of attitude for its design prowess, much of the company’s line-up is aging, so to inject whatever life into both it and the sales numbers, Alfa is actuation the Giulietta to change the old 147 hatchback.

Originally slated to be christened “Milano,” Alfa has decided to alter back the famous Giulietta study instead for its latest compact hatch. While Alfa fans module discern a lot of the 147’s shape and some of its design cues in the Giulietta -- specially in the rear end and wheels -- one crapper also see a brawny influence from the new Alfa lover MiTo subcompact, itself inspired by the bonny 8C Competizione. The biggest changes become to the headlights and lower intakes, which follow a general design trend of rounder, more carved surfaces found every over the car.

At launch, the five-door reproduce module offer four engines, two gasoline-powered and two diesel. Both gasoline engines module eject 1.4L but module offer either 120 hp or 170 hp. The diesel motors module become in two forms, one a 105-hp 1.6L unit and the other a 170-hp 1.6L mill. Later on, a Quadrifoglio Verde performance model module become armored with a special 235-hp gasoline engine.

Helping to ready the Giulietta under curb will be an electronic limited-slip differential, a “next-generation” curb grouping of which we undergo lowercase about and Alfa’s three-mode DNA stability curb system.

The 2011 Alfa lover Giulietta is due to go on-sale in aggregation after in the spring of 2010 following its debut at the 2010 Genf Motor Show in March.
