NEW Alfa Romeo Junior Veloce Review: The most FUN small EV?
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 8 июл 2024
- The Alfa Romeo Junior is a small crossover that shares its underpinnings with other Stellantis models, including the Jeep Avenger and Vauxhall Mokka. In Veloce trim it's also a proper electric hot hatch, with 278bhp from its electric motor, a mechanical limited-slip differential and overhauled suspension. The Junior Veloce can get from 0-62mph in 5.9 seconds, and has a claimed 215-mile range from its 54kWh battery. Prices for this flagship model start from £42,295.
In this CarGurus UK review, Vicky Parrott tests the Junior Veloce EV on the twists and turns of Alfa's historic Balocco test track, and comes away very impressed indeed.
Would you consider a Junior Veloce over a more traditional hot hatch?

![Tesla Taxi FULL HEALTH CHECK: Is The Battery RUINED After 430,000 Miles? [Episode 4]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/doAcNVuTnXU/mqdefault.jpg)
1st EV I've ever considered .. looks fabulous, I just don't have 43 grand
It needs a peppy 1.6ti engine, Abarth exhausts, £33K done.
Citroen ec3 different looks, exact same thing inside, under 25k
@@mrrichardshort I've got a giulietta with a 1.4 multi air with 170bhp, can we have that instead ...?
@@P4TRICCS maybe underneath with the batteries etc , but v different inside
@@anthonydeas2173 yes, Perfect! (I've got the Abarth 595 Turismo too)
I love how she has so much fun at those tracks 🤩
Relly impressive, just shows that real differences can be made with the limitations of platform sharing.
Thank you for the video. It seems that Alfa has worked fantastic about road holding and handling. Your smile confirmed that.
Best looking EV on the market for me, I love it. Alfa have done a great job and I want one :)
Great review. Vicky is one of the best motor journalists, in my opinion 👍
Good to see Alfa on top of its game again. But, will it translate to sales in the UK?
in all your reviews i have watched i have never seen you laugh so much and enjoy a car
Looks really good, the interior looks 👌. All the reviews I have watched so far seem to really compliment its handling and dynamic driving, sadly just shy of the range I like to have.
Beautiful Alfa
I enjoyed watching the video review, definitely one the best new Alfa Romeo Models 😊
Thanks!👍 Love your voice🌹
Had the opportunity to see it and sit in it at the Birmingham roadshow. Really impressed with the styling and the fit and finish on the demonstrator. A few more miles on the range would have been useful.
nice review that makes some optimistic suggestions for the future of the brand even with platform sharin g- would have been great to get a better taste of the range - is there still some of this dynamic in the more bread and butter models.
Great film. Looking forward to trying one 👍
Does it come with a sunroof??😊
Patiently waiting for the next Giulia
Vicky great review,
To bad that Alfa didn't go with 4WD electric propulsion system and made the sportiest EV on this shred Stelantis platform
That is a really nice looking car. I prefer it to the Tonale that has an awkward looking rear.
Very nice. except for the screen being below the vents. why is it like that? And also time for another hatch, wagon, coupe and sedan.
Better touch ergonomics this way. The driver has a second screen.
The V6 with this body design would've been a banger.
my next car !
I actually think that its beautiful ❤
WOT no opening pan roof?
Those seats look amazingly cool, this looks like a fun hatch HOWEVER did she say only 154 horsepower from the electric motor ????
The base version, the one in the video, has about 280 hp.
Stylish.
Alfa romeo excuse presence and a classic temperament
Still okay woth my MiTo
It looks like a Megane E-Tech.
100%
Like the looks (except the rear - looks like an EV6), interior and red colour but the rest is underwhelming and obviously shared with the many other small Stellantis crossovers. Veloce is very expensive but looks fun, the basic one just another 54kWhr clone like the 2008, Avenger, Mokka etc.
Lease rates will be critical - if it’s cheap might consider one as our company car, but I get a feeling they won’t be.
No to the central grill.
It looks like every other SUV
This top of the range model seems to have the handling capabilities that the alfisti are looking for, well done Stellantis ! However I do agree that the front is too fussy. I think there is a model in the range that has a much simpler scudetto that would improve the car’s appearance, the large Alfa logo is overdone. I think the presenter means to say mechanical limited slip differential, aren’t all differentials mechanical anyway ? It’s the cheaper form of electronic limited slip diff that my Guilietta has that the Veloce has avoided.
Questa auto è tutto, fuorchè Alfa Romeo.
I absolutely love Alfa Romeo. But to pay over 50k euros for an ev with 280 hp? It will not work.
Sure will.
It's assembled in Poland so more reliable
🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂😂😅😅😅
❤🎉❤🎉❤
Looks more like a Renault than an Alfa imo!
Alfas have always aimed to inspire emotions by their design. In general, they do that with coherent curvy lines. Unfortunately, this car lacks coherence especially in the front. I agree with the presenter. It is fussy and the rear is also a bit non-Italian. I think they could have done better with a simpler design.
Why would you buy a Mini?!
Bellisima 🎉
It's an Alfa Romeo It's Different which is good from all the blandness on the roads today
43k for a vehicle with only 200 miles of range.
Range Anxiety
I'd go hybrid
Alfa Romeo stylists have obviously and unfortunately spent too much time gazing at French and Korean body styling design. A real shame! I dare say it drives like an Alfa. Every Alfa should have a sole and bite hard into your sole but this 'AR Junior' (awful name), not quite sure?? It has managed to do one Alfa trick and that is to make you happy and smile. Will there be a QF version I wonder?! Price point too much also...
True!
Not enough range…
Alfa romeo excludes a classic presence
Look forward to much cheaper petrol version.
Not sure your kids will.
Fun and suv should never be used in the same sentence
This is the most lackluster review i have ever seen from a car channel.
Renault Captur
Top-heavy & unessacary ground clearence is something distinctly non-Alfa
This is not a real Alfa, it is a sporty-dressed Peugeot 2008. Alfa Romeo died with Marchionne; Stellantis will rebadge Peugeots' cars with the Alfa logo. Poor Alfa
The UK is still allowing Chinese cars in without tariff so don't expect many of these but loads of MGs. We are be oning a dumping ground for Chinese EVs bought by the same people who voted Brexit and wept at sovereignty. European car brands need protecting from brands using cheaper labour with poorer protections, cheaper materials, stolen tech and dubious owners (MG is owned by the CCP - see HK, Taiwan, slave labour, spying etc).
The irony is that Italian cars are known to be terrible with their electrics
Stellantis want to get lost back to France, leave Alfa alone, a lovely two litre turbo in that would be a million per cent better than a milk float.
Why not a v8 while we’re at it, companies have to lower their emissions because of European laws so they most likely didn’t have a choice
What part of all new cars by 2035 will be EV are you not getting? Maybe 2030 now. Embrace the milk float. Personally I prefer EVs, I know they have pros and cons. Im not a fan of suvs.
Another overpriced SUV EV that nobody wants.
It's no Alfa it's just some electric product..
Shite..
t doesnt look like an Alfa The price is astronomical . 215 miles is not far enough . Its sacriledge that an iconic car like Alfa has been destroyed by the woke agenda I had a proper Alfa in the 80s . It had soul. It sounded wonderful ,Handled like a limpet and looked beautiful .
Crappy range
Ughh Alfa has lost itself making all these rebranded blobby compact SUV’s. I really hope they redeem themselves by making the Giulia EV exceptional, and not just another renault/jeep/chrysler/etc re-skin
That's not ALFA. That's ugly box.
How design that? Does he see Alfa Romeo SZ/GTV/147/156/Brera?? Ridiculous
Kinda disappointed with everything in this.
£43k is just so out of touch. Next.....
Too pricey for what you get too little range and is a lesser car just cause it shares a platform with a shitty jeep.....stellantis are idiots for thinking this will sell
Dont beleive in Stellantis Group cars. 👎
Ev? Just buy Chinese.
😂😂😂😂. it's just a cheap Peugeot.
Poor exterior design! Take the Alfa grille away and it could be any of 50 cars!
EV’s are not wanted by the public yet they keep getting pushed and I suppose the best way is for the manufacturers to get them more agreeable is to get the motoring magazines to do it for them. Although we the public won’t entertain them. An electric Alfa Romeo is not an Alfa it’s just a Chinese electric motor with other industry parts. Cars engines is what keeps them unique to that brand take that away and the individuality is gone.
Looks like a Nissan with a different front. I really dont look at this with a vow factor. Doesnt feel desirable at all.
I hate the design. And 4wd. The interior is too dark. Wheels are too big. 👎👎
Lol
