whoever buys this car doesn't look at the LED strips or the virtual cockpits...Here it's all substance, passion and love for driving. The Giulia is such an amazing piece of machine
So true! I dont see whats wrong with the interior other than its beautiful. That idiot said that its bad when you are close 😂 He probably expected a tablet with digital gauges 🙄
Alfa Romeo CEO Said He Doesn’t Sell an iPad With a Car Around it, what's why interior quite basic, without fancy screens, but from the patrolhead perspective, first time you drive even the base Giulia, you fall in love with the sensation of driving dynamics. It is super rare, these days were the car is made for driving pleasure.
Yes Imparato said that but this car is from 2016, he enter Alfa last year and is referring future products that are being developed now. This model was to compete with the models existing in the market in the first half last decade, since then most of competitors already launched new models and new "iPADs" and LED strips inside and this is what the press love talk and write. For me screens is the dashboard is the last stupidity they are forcing is the industry, the ancient mechanic and sculpture dashboards like what we see is this car is the best thing we have but its almost extincted. Big screens + more resolution = better quality but when we are in a car what really matter is how it performs in movement.
@@carlosgilpinheiro7510 I agree that nice resolution screen is good addon for the whole feel, but for me, I am glad that Alfa Romeo invested money to the suspension and drivability, than to the fancy screens. Fancy screens, but poor handling, wouldn't be a true Alfa and they needed to save money somewhere. In my case, only necessary thing in the car is Android Auto / Apple Car play - if it works, that's more than enough.
Thats a real car, Beautiful design, Incredible sound, Ferrari engine with less 2 cylinders, Perfect engine, stunning interior… how Its possible to dont love this masterpiece ? 🤩
I’ve had mine 3 years with no issues, and I know a lot of owners with the same experience, one that has 135k miles and only regular servicing costs. These comments just serve to confirm stereotypes.
@Tristan Marguier Unfortunately you have absolutely no idea about cars. 2 years ago I bought this dream car. I thought it was beautiful and also thought that there could be nothing. At first I was a little disappointed with the quality of the interior, but hey, it's all about the driving pleasure. Yes, I ran the vehicle in for the first 500km, not more than 3,000 revolutions or 120kmh, and also let the engine run for 2 minutes before each trip. From 2000km the problems started, terrible car, not reliable. At first glance 10/10 but once you get it it's a lousy car. Chose Audi or Lexus.
Alfa's reliability and interior is way better than the German competition, the reputation for having bad reliability came from some car magazines which didn't know what they were talking about! Alfas always had nice interiors, look at the 166, 156, etc., in the past, especially the seats!
Hi Max. Qv owner here, had 3 M3s in a row before my qv. The qv is as you said, such an exciting drivers car. Its so driver focused. Dynamically I have never experience a car like it. Its so direct and raw, and the Ferrari motor is as expected..amazing. I think its my favourite of all the performance cars i have owned and driven. Highly addictive and drop dead gorgeous in vesuvio grey
First time hearing that somebody complains on Giulia’a reliability…😂 One of the greatest cars made in the last decade, emphasizing the essence of driving pleasure whether it has been driven gently or trashed around some B-roads.
I love my Quadrifoglio. I’ve owned many performance cars, and the Quadrifoglio just feels so much lighter than the performance saloons I’ve owned previously. The thin steering wheel, direct steering, and playfulness with the throttle and chassis reminds me of the McLaren 570S. The reliability comment is an interesting one as mine has been 100% reliable, likewise with those who I know who have owned one. In fact the reliability was the only concern for me when I initially thought of buying one but some research on the forums confirmed they are pretty reliable cars. It’s definitely been more reliable than my AMG before it, and the M cars I’ve had before that. If you’re considering buying one then you should as it’s definitely a future classic. I usually buy a new car every year, but honestly I’m thinking of keeping this long term and once out of warranty turning it into some sort of GTA-M/track car beast, it’s that good.
I think that reliability issues with an AR is just a strong stereotype we got in our brains from media(lack of experience)...I own 147 JTD, and it's the best diesel I've ever seen. Good luck with your QV, like they say: "the best drivers car".
Great video as always. However, it's frustrating that people keep spouting about the reliability of the Giulia. All the comments I've seen since it launched have been extremely positive and, myself, had one for 3 years without a single issue. I had a Giulia Veloce for 2 years before that too with the only issue being a squeak in the steering wheel which the garage took care of in 15 minutes. The Giulia and Stelvio were created on a completely new Girgio platform and looks like they took care of the massive majority of reliability concerns, it would be nice for this to be recognised rather than the age old 'Alfa reliability' comment being tossed about.
It's always the people that own no Alfa that say Alfa is bad. If you have an Andi, BMW it's normal to spend 10K or more on a new engine and nobody says anything about it. But if you spend 500€ on an Alfa it's the end of the world. It's mainly just opinions from people that don't know what they are talking about. I owned many Alfa's in my life and they have been more reliable then any other car i had. And i drove a lot of other big brands.
I love my 2021 Quadrifoglio with carbon buckets and carbon roof in competizione rosso. The interior quality increased substantially compared to the previous version. The infotainment is still crappy, but the rest makes up for it. It is such a beauty and on 13,000 km, I did not have any reliability issues. The engine has a lot of midrange power, the sound is amazing, the ZF gearbox works well (smooth in N, fast in D and R) and the steering is one of the best on the market. Whats sucks is the torque limiter in the first 5 gears and the ESP, which is a buzz kill, unless you drive in R mode. But again, if you enter into your garage and you see this beauty of a car, you don‘t think about the smaller stuff. 😍
Very nice video & honest feedfack at 300km/h 😉. About the reliability: my QV has 56k on the clock without a single issue & also tuned by Squadra. It’s the best daily sports-sedan I’ve had and there is no alternative available yet.
I drove a Stelvio QV in Santa Monica, CA, but want to buy a Giulia QV. I really would like to drive a QV on the Autobahn without any speed limits. Great video!
Having Alfa is like having beautiful wife with wich you have a fight from time to time. It gives all her pleasures to you but has quite a character, with some flaws. But its never boring. And thats why you love her so much.
Love your descriptions man! "If BMW was one of those dancing horses--I really don't know how they do that, but they do that good.... This is a rodeo horse! if you can hold on."
Honestly, a person who talks about the Giulia saying that it has ugly interiors or that the map is ugly, but does not speak of the 11.8:1 steering ratio (similar to that of the 488 italia) or of the carbon drive shaft does not understand anything cars(steering and shaft which is also the same on common versions such as diesel or 2.0t). Not to mention that it has remained at the rumors of the 80s on reliability, when a Giulia Quadrifoglio Verde gives fewer problems than many AMGs or Ms
I have the Giulia Veloce (2018) here in the States, since 2018 and no issues at all and I can attest to the utterly brilliant chassis balance and steering. As well as the clever AWD system which is RWD basically all of the time unless you lose some traction.
In fact I have the same car: model 2017 with automatic gearbox, sparco carbon sports seats (and carbon ceramic brakes) and ... also tuned by Squadra tuning. I have now driven 48,000 km and have only had to have a free software update performed for the fuel pump. That is really the only mechanical weak point, which has been solved on more recent models. All other problems that Q owners sometimes encounter are usually caused by the battery, which is BTW… German made. Since I don't drive my Q every day, it is for that reason constantly on a trickle charger. As far as the interior is concerned, everything is not too bad. Only the gear lever feels cheap (solved from model year 2020) and I subsequently had the plastic underside of the doors and dashboard (also the case on the German competition) covered with extra leather and Alcantara. What I find really incomprehensible is that Alfa Romeo provides the front splitter and side skirts with carbon fiber as standard, but the diffuser, which is visually the most striking, is made of plastic and that Alfa Romeo does not even offer the option of carbon fiber. Fortunately, this diffuser, like many parts for both interior and exterior, can be found in carbon fiber on the after market. But what really makes this car so good is the incredibly successful balance between comfort, performance and driving pleasure. Even after installing 2 cm shorter ST KW springs and 20-inch rims with ultra-flat low profile tires, the comfort is still quite good, while the road holding is phenomenal. The Q's turn-in is also incredible, sometimes a little too light on fast, winding Autobahn rides (in the Alps). Because the ST springs, like the standard springs, are fairly soft, there is an annoying pumping effect on the front axle every time you drive over a speed bump or pothole. However, that problem is as good as solved after the installation of the GTA(m) software by Squadra Tuning in the Netherlands. For older models (I thought from MY 2019 onwards) you must have a more recent version of the CDCM (suspension ECU). In addition, Squadra tuning has also implemented the interventions discussed in this video. Especially the removal of all limitations in terms of (the further increased) power and torque in the first gears in Dynamic is a relief. Definitely recommended!
The wrap guys don't know how to align the bumper back? I mean, really?! 2:01 . 11:20 - Yeah, like BMW is so reliable that on other versions the main bearings were gone, but hey, I've never heard of that on a GTA or QV ;) And if there are any electrical issues, talk to BOSCH and other parts makers about reliability, not Alfa!
I loved the review but when it comes to driving modes, the A is for Advanced efficiency which cuts off one bank of cylinders, and not All weather as you said. Rest of the video is immaculate. :)
I've owned a Giulia for 3 years now with 66,000 miles. There is quite a significant amount of reliability issues, but they all consist of things that don't cost money to fix. In all, I maybe spent a total of $200 on repairs. The car is annoying, but not necessarily expensive.
I like the look of the interior albeit not with the build quality or materials. Much prefer it to its competitors as i am so over the messy layout with screens stuck on top of the dash and millions of buttons etc.
You lost me at "reliability issues'. I get a lot of that from people who can't think for themselves. Just because I heard my cousin's brother's nephew's step dad bemoans the reliability of an Alfa Romeo he once owned but never maintained, doesn't necessarily mean I must take his word for it. Alfa's are as reliable as they come even surpass ZeGermans. A 2002 Alfa Romeo 156 2.5 v6 is more reliable than 2011 BMW 3201i E90. Trust me, I know!
Nice driving video your driving an earlier QV like mine which in my opinion are the most raw, 17-19 the newer 2020 + are far more refined which doesn’t appeal to a hardcore enthusiast,
Having driven (but granted, not owned) both extensively, this argument that the original are best because more raw is weak. New ones are better built, not diluted as people may otherwise believe reading the above.
@@nessuno5403 FYI the new ones better built does not mean more performance oriented and I have owned both. the earlier cars are lighter by quite a bit, faster, more aggressive shifting of the ZF 8 speed and have the special front end geometry that the original Ferrari engineers worked on with faster steering. The new cars do not have the same geometry or steering rack because people complained about ackerman noise in parking lots. if you know cars you know the differences immediately after minutes behind the wheel and they are completely different machines. driving these cars and owning them for 4+ years spending hours each day is very different to feel the differences between both variants.
@@JStryker7 not so nice because it does not launch out of the hole as aggressive as earlier models I have owned a 2021 QV and was driving them back to back for months each day
@@autofanaticcars oh I know, I’ve seen your videos. I still prefer the 2020+ QV because it should have better long term reliability, which is important since there won’t be a valid successor to the car
What about making the review before the sun sets in 1 or 2 hours for showing the beauty of the car in the golden shine and make the test drive in half hour before sunset so you can find autobahn not that much crowded.
Why is it alpha tauri f1 and not alfa romeo f1? So strange. Also it needs a firmware update at the dealer. Race mode should display mph and gear. I love my giulia quadrifoglio. Early next year I'll have it in Germany :)
Ho guidato sia questa che Stelvio GTA (Ma odio i SUV) Alla prima affondata a pieno gas mi sono spaventato ed ho alzato il piede!!Anche sui 2000 giri affondi e ti dà un calcio nella schiena brutale!!
An Alfa Romeo with an Alpha Tauri wrap? Okaaay. I guess you haven't watched the countless reviews over the last 6 years that mention the active front splitter.
Stacking giant ipad in centre of console is not style, neither quality. Same goes for fugly beaver face and 10 times oversized grill. Or vacuum sound. I am speaking of bmw, for sure. Giulia outrun others on Nurburgring and still outhandle competition. It might not be perfected but it has sould and style with some serious performance which can’t be reached by competition. Also, interior is nice place tobe and screen with newer Ui is incorporated beautifully, super intuitive to use. It stylish, without screaming. And you know what? It has working turning signals on all models, something BMW lack at all.
Where is the data about reliability? or build quality. When we check last C class interior and the real quality of the materials for example all we got in the germans is reputation constructed in the past and a lot of that fab by the press.

Care to explain more about the issues you faced? Was it a QV or 4-cylinder giulia? Just curious

Giulia first year models had issues. Thats to be expected from FIRST release of totally new car!
Exactly. Even the new BMW G80 M3 (and X3M) plus derivates had initial problems - eg S58 engine's main bearing shell.
When it comes to tuning the qv, Celtic Tuning is the best. Stage 1: 600+ hp
Es ist Wunderbar💙💙💙
Speaking about the interior, This is model from 2015.
The interior on the 2015 m4 wasnt that good
The Driveshaft is also Full Carbon. It looks Like from the Same Company as a BMW M3 F80. The Ferrari-Engine-Code is a F154.
Well, I disagree with the reliability topic. The Giulia showed to be quite reliable.
Why is it alpha tauri f1 and not alfa romeo f1? So strange. Also it needs a firmware update at the dealer. Race mode should display mph and gear. I love my giulia quadrifoglio. Early next year I'll have it in Germany :)
Ho guidato sia questa che Stelvio GTA (Ma odio i SUV) Alla prima affondata a pieno gas mi sono spaventato ed ho alzato il piede!!Anche sui 2000 giri affondi e ti dà un calcio nella schiena brutale!!
Hello Max, We need more Mercedes-Benz on the channel please ! Thanks
Passione! =)
People talk about reliability, if you do regulary maintenance you’re not gonna have problems
Un mostro.
my dream car :(
jup.. same here
Beautiful ❤️
can you guys try the 'normal' 2.0 t giulia with a squadra tune? i would love to see a review of the 'budget' alfa chose
Big fan of your videos, but why you didn't ever filmed an BMW F85? :(
Never heard about the spoiler? Every one testning it 5 years ago talked about it!
Some technicians: Let’s tame the monster, chassis pretty good to handle this
Looks like its suprisingly quick.
An Alfa Romeo with an Alpha Tauri wrap? Okaaay. I guess you haven't watched the countless reviews over the last 6 years that mention the active front splitter.
Stacking giant ipad in centre of console is not style, neither quality. Same goes for fugly beaver face and 10 times oversized grill. Or vacuum sound. I am speaking of bmw, for sure. Giulia outrun others on Nurburgring and still outhandle competition. It might not be perfected but it has sould and style with some serious performance which can’t be reached by competition. Also, interior is nice place tobe and screen with newer Ui is incorporated beautifully, super intuitive to use. It stylish, without screaming. And you know what? It has working turning signals on all models, something BMW lack at all.
💚🤍❤️ Alfa Romeo 🍀👍
Top Top Top❤
oh, ah! :D very nice car!
the panel gap between front bumper and fender is enormous.Suppose because of the wrap.....
I really wanna see a Dodge Viper on the channel:)
Where is the data about reliability? or build quality. When we check last C class interior and the real quality of the materials for example all we got in the germans is reputation constructed in the past and a lot of that fab by the press.
There are like no reliability issues with the Giulia/Stelvio....
right, on statistical reliability index, alfa romeo is always better rated than bmw...
@@Tonyx.yt. the new ones do

You need to do autobhan test of viper by calvo💪
Yeah, or a Lamborghini Huracan by Underground Racing 💪
How did you get the torque/HP display in the cluster? I've never seen that and I want it! Was it part of the tune? QF only feature?
The Alpha Tauri wrap on an Alfa Romeo threw me off. It's like wrapping a Mercedes with the Alpine livery... absolute nonsense!
Grande alfa romeo
Drive a daf truck next plz
How does he have the HP and torque displaying on the screen?
13:25 a moment of silence for the family of bugs that lost their lives.
Alfa romeo with alpha tauri theme
Mmm, sounds delicious.
SAY QUADRIFOGLIO!!! :D
