dont u think its a myth tha italian cars are not reliable?we had an 156 for 7 years and didnt have a problem!!now a brera 3.2 still not a problem!!and most of people dont know about cars they have a golf or polo and just talk..
I don’t think the Giulietta looks too good in white. Must be a very colour sensitive design. I much prefer that 8c red and black. Though even in white it is still beautiful and easily the best looking car in its class.
1.4 = 170 bhp. 6 speed gearbox with an optional paddle shift and thats just the basic model. Can’t wait for the bigger engined modle to come onto the market.
if only they get the reliability right.thats the italian curse.beautiful cars but not reliable enough.this one looks amazing hope they got the reliability right.
@Guid0o7 I mean the way they are lighting up, if that’s what you mean. Looks a bit tacky (and would be illegal too), the light clusters themselves with LED lighting is nice though, no doubt.
so beautiful car…i own a fiat bravo, which i think is the most beautiful right now in the class, but this one is surely gorgeous…who knows maybe i will change my bravo for this masterpiece of design
@hoppustnl It’s cuz the camera takes like 40 frames pr. second and therefore cathes the lights off and on (They blink like 60 timer pr. second) and this is therefore shown as blinking. You would absolutely not see that with human eyes

As a way to preserve the recognizable Alfa design, these design elements probably had to be used. Leon was the product of Walter de’Silva, the current head of design for VW Group. Before VW (i.e. Seat), he worked for Alfa and was influential for the design of all 20th century Alfas. Simply put, those elements you mentioned were inherited from de’Silva. If you still don’t believe me, just look at an Alfa 156.
looks like the designer is a fan of the leon cupra .. check out the back door handles & the windows & the lines frm the bonnet going to the windscreen and even the damper is styled similar and the red reflectors on the bumper

PDK? That’s Porsches mate
@johnnywires3 I would thinks so, they hired a german to do the designing of this car.
@defender5151 I know!!! Finally, Alfa really worked hard on this one!!!!

@robseven7 i don’t like the front LED sequences but the rear lights i think look good. it makes the tail lights different. a bit of Alfa flair even
170 hp

It looks F***ingGorgeous You Italian Bastards I Luv Ya
@WabbitCrouton
It seems like that but it isn’t. Its the difference in ‘refreshrate’ of the LED lights and the refresh rate of the camera.
@hoppustnl It’s cuz the camera takes like 40 frames pr. second and therefore cathes the lights off and on (They blink like 60 timer pr. second) and this is therefore shown as blinking. You would absolutely not see that with human eyes
Looks great, sounds like it drives well, hope the LED sequences are left out though.
walter ’s trade mark design lives on ..
very good looking car

Great car! I really hope it comes the the US!
@WabbitCrouton
yes, is there anybody know what’s that?
Come stateside….please!
@mcmt1139 the 1.4 tb is not dual turbo it’s single turbo
@WabbitCrouton it looks like that only on led cameras
Are those LED’s flickering on purpose or is it just the reflection?
I want you in USA. The Giulietta that is…
