Just A Pretty Face? Alfa Romeo Giulia Review
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 17 мар 2018
- For quite some years now, it seemed as if the Germans had the compact size executive saloon market wrapped up - with the exception of the Jaguar XE of course. After offering models such as the 156 and the 159 in previous years, Alfa Romeo is back, with the brand new Giulia. Has this pretty face got enough to compete, or is style of substance?
The model tested here is the Speciale model, which is towards of the top of the range and is only available with the 178bhp 2.2 litre diesel. This engine also offers 450Nm of torque, as is mated to an 8-speed automatic with power fed to the rear wheels. Although this may not offer the same amount of power as the 2.9 litre V6, it's no slouch. It will hit 62mph in 7.1 seconds and continue to a top speed of 143mph.
Has the Giulia got what it takes to compete with the Germans though? Check out this video review to find out.

Evening all, and welcome to my video review of the Giulia. I really hope you like it as a lot of work went in to producing this video, and I would like to thank Pocket Rockets and The Driven for their assistance with filming. If you have any questions, please comment and I will answer them as quickly as I can to the best of my ability.
A real good experience to join you for the day getting the chance to film the Giulia, some great footage as a result and edited together beautifully 👌🏼 ... Until next time!
Alfa - the car with soul!
I have just bought a very similar Giulia to the one in your test. With the depreciation for Diesels there are some real bargains out there in the second hand marker. I could never imagine driving a £40k+ car and enjoying it so much. I really recommend others go out and drive one!
It's a lovely car, ain't it? Thanks for watching Pete.
Dude. This is good. Very comprehensive and entertaining. Really enjoyed it!!
danbarnettmedia Cheers Dan! Thanks for watching.
Excellent camera work, you did the car justice! Enjoyed the review.. keep going mate.
Hi Matthew, thanks for watching, and thanks for the great feedback!
Your best video to date, interesting and informative from start to finish! Keep up the excellent work buddy 👌
Joe Achilles Cheers Joe! 👍🏽
Great review, the passion and feeling really comes across, we loved the car dubbed as the mini Ferrari by one of our commenters, and we think that really sums up the Giulia.
Thank you very much guys!
A video you can really be proud of mate. Loved the build up on the socials and you totally delivered.
MattB88 _ Thanks so much buddy, I'm ecstatic with how it's come out. The credit should also go Pocket Rockets and The Driven as well 👍🏽Thanks for watching
Best review you've done. Top work 👏
NewMotoring Thanks guys, that means alot - thanks for watching
Wow, what a beautiful car. So stylish and unique. Great review Aaron.
Andy K. UK Cheers Andy, thanks for watching!
Excellent review, many thanks! Beautiful cars too, still don't see many around which makes it appeal all the more!
Hi Ross, thanks for the feedback. They certainly are beautiful cars, and it's always a pleasure to see them in the wild. Thanks for watching.
Your reviews are getting good now, good angles of the car... knocking out good stats..
Cheers Paul, much appreciated! Thanks for watching! In fairness, some of the credit needs to go to the people that helped me film, I normally have to film these videos by myself, which can be a real challenge!
Great review
Thank you very much Ivana, I'm glad you enjoyed it - thanks for watching.
Great reviews fella, still soooooo need a go in a Quadrifoglio.
Peak Performance Reviews Cheers Alex!
Car Obsession only the truth, your welcome fella.
Correction: There is a manual option for this car. I know 100% the quad model has the option. I myself own the 280hp giulia or the the American TI model.
Hello Yury, you are correct, but I said there was no manual for the *UK*, which is correct. I'm fully aware that other markets get the manual option. Thanks for watching. PS, even the Quadrifoglio is auto only in in the UK.
Good review.
Thank you Rav, thanks for watching
Nice review. The USA spec 2.0 litre gas (petrol ) version claims to have 280 bhp and the Q4 version does 0-60mph in 5.1 seconds. I ordered one and am looking forward to getting it and driving it "like an absolute lunatic".... :)
Hello Martyn, glad you like the video. I hope you enjoy the car when it comes, although I think it'd be hard not to! Thanks for watching.
Yes, looking forward to getting it. It will be my second Italian car, the first one being a 1974 Lancia Fulvia Coupe which I owned from 1976 yo 1979. Subscribed to your channel, very professional and clearly presented.
Thank you Martyn, much appreciated! Lancia Fulvia eh? Now, THAT is a nice car! What made you give it up?
I moved from Croydon UK to the USA in 1979 for work.... and never came back, except to visit of course!
What do you think, in 2021? It’s a few years old now… will there be a new revision. I think it’s on the company car list and it’s a serious contender for me but due to its age there isn’t too many comparisons recently with the cars 2021 has to offer.
Hi Dan, I didn't own the car, it was given to me for the week by Alfa Romeo, so I'm afraid I can'y comment. Thanks for watching.
@@CarObsession but you can retrospectively say if you’d still get one today? Or similar alternatives? Unfortunately, merc bmw Audi Lexus are considered managers cars and are not allowed. :/
@@danhyde7501 What do you mean "are not allowed"?
@@CarObsession for non managers I mean. I guess too luxury for us common folk lol. Don’t make sense to me but It is what it is
@@danhyde7501 I still don't follow; you don't have to be a manager to own a Mercedes, Audi, BMW or Lexus.
Beauty :D
nice car..but prefer the opel insignia premium..cheaper (by sgd 50k) n better (alot of safety features including self parking assist)..even has a drivers massage seat!!
"better" haha
Car was too dirty for a review.
Hello Piotr, as you can see from the footage, some of the roads were wet, and because the car was white, keeping it clean was very tricky. Sometimes there is only so much you can do, especially when the areas we filmed in did not have suitable car washes, although that would have made little difference as some roads were flooded with dirty water and the rain was on and off. In fact, you can even see the rain in some of the clips, so I think you comments are harsh to say the least. Thanks for watching Piotr.
