The Alfa Romeo Giulietta [7] (Type 940) is a hatchback manufactured and marketed by Alfa Romeo, as a 5-door subcompact executive car. Production started near the end of 2009 and the model was introduced at the March 2010 Geneva Motor Show. [8] The Giulietta placed second in the 2011 European Car of the Year awards. Between 2010 and 2019, production reached over 400,000. In 2020, Alfa Romeo announced that they were going to axe the Giulietta and production ended on 22 December 2020 spanning 10 years of sales from a period of 2010 to 2020. [9] In total 469,067 examples were produced until 2020. [1]

Interior

The platform used in the Giulietta is Fiat Group's Compact, successor of the C-platform (base for Fiat Stilo, Fiat Bravo and Lancia Delta). Practically, this is an all new modular platform; only the central front part comes from the previous C-platform, however that part is also modified. [3] [10] Fiat Group used around 100 million euros developing it. Mistakenly journalists called it the C-Evo platform, but Fiat never called on this name.[ citation needed ]

In comparison to older Fiat platforms it has a longer wheelbase, shorter overhangs and an advanced new type of MacPherson strut front suspension and multi-link rear suspension. [8] Depending on the market and trim level, 16, 17, or 18-inch wheels are available. Available tire sizes are 205/55 R16, 225/45 R17, and 225/40 R18. [11] The wheels use a 5-hole pattern with a 110 mm bolt circle. [12] The length of the Giulietta is around 4.3 metres (14 ft). Only a five-door body was available.

In a viability plan forwarded to the US Government in February 2009, Chrysler (a partner of Alfa Romeo parent company Fiat) reported that the 147 replacement would come to market as the Milano and that it could be built in the US. [13] However, as of early 2010 Fiat was instead planning to concentrate on bringing larger models to the US, such as the Giulia. [14]

Engines

Multijet diesel engine used in Giulietta Alfa Romeo JTDm2.jpg
Multijet diesel engine used in Giulietta

The range of engines includes the new 1.4 L T-Jet petrol and M-jet diesel family, all turbocharged. A six-speed manual and Dual Dry Clutch Transmission TCT (Twin Clutch Transmission) introduced at the 2010 Paris International Motor Show, will be choice gearboxes for customers. Fitted to the 1.4 MultiAir petrol and 2.0 MultiJet diesel, this compact six-speed gearbox reduces the fuel consumption and CO2 emissions of both engines compared to the manual versions. The diesel drops to 119 g/km, [27] while the petrol is reduced to 121 g/km, [28] giving the latter best-in-class emissions and power output in its class for a petrol engine.

The Alfa Romeo Giulietta uses a new engine which utilizes a system known as Multiair. The system controls the amount of air going into the engine by controlling when air is allowed into the engine and how much the inlet valve opens. The system works by inserting a "tappet" between the cam shaft and the valve and the engine management system can control the amount of oil that is allowed into the "tappet" thus changing the effective opening profile of the inlet valve. The system can also change the overlap of the inlet and exhaust valves as well as changing the amount of lift and this allows the engine to maintain a steady pressure in the inlet manifold which is used to increase the amount of torque the engine produces while maintaining the efficiency of the engine. The system is said to increase torque by 20% while reducing emissions by a similar amount. All engines except the 1750 TBi have a Start&Stop system and all until 2016 are Euro5 rated. [29] From late 2015, all engines in the Giulietta range are Euro 6 compliant and all apart from the 2.0L MultiJet2 Diesel (2014) come with improvements to their CO2 emission and fuel economy figures. [30]

The top of the range model has 1.7 L turbocharged engine the 1750 TBi – 235 PS (173 kW; 232 hp) with an exclusive Quadrifoglio Verde configuration (called Cloverleaf in the UK). At the 2011 Bologna Motor Show an LPG version of the Giulietta was unveiled.

Safety and driving aids

The Giulietta was designed with a target of a 5-star Euro NCAP safety rating. The car also has many electronic devices as standard: VDC (Vehicle Dynamic Control) electronic stability control, DST (Dynamic Steering Torque), Q2 electronic differential and Alfa Romeo DNA selector which allows driver to choose between three different driving settings; Dynamic, Normal and All-Weather, this setting controls the behaviour of engine, brakes, steering, suspension and gearbox.

The Alfa Romeo Giulietta is equipped with a reactive head restraint and gained five star (Star full.svgStar full.svgStar full.svgStar full.svgStar full.svg) rating and overall score of 87/100 in the Euro NCAP car safety tests. [36] That result made it the safest compact car ever tested by Euro NCAP. [37] Giulietta's result (97% Adult Occupant, 85% Child Occupant, 63% Pedestrian Protection and 86% Safety Assist) means that the car will also have five-star rating in 2012 when the Euro NCAP system will have reached maximum severity. The Giulietta was named as best performing Small Family category car in 2010 by Euro NCAP. [38]

Alfa Romeo Giulietta Quadrifoglio Verde is used as Superbike World Championship safety car (except in the United States rounds, where because of Fiat marketing, the Dodge Challenger SRT and some Ram Trucks are used since the Giulietta brand is not sold in the United States, but the Ram and SRT brands are.). [46] A fleet of Giuliettas was used also in Eco Targa Florio organisation. [47]

The Giulietta was used as a hero car in the 2013 film Fast & Furious 6 . To promote the film, Alfa Romeo published a series of photos featuring Giuliettas that were destroyed during the film's production. [48] In addition, six Giuliettas were offered with a dashboard plaque signed by cast members of the film, as well as the option to attend a stunt day with a stunt coordinator. [49]

The Handy Motorsports BTCC Giulietta

A NGTC-spec Giulietta entered the 2018 British Touring Car Championship by Handy Motorsport, achieving a race win. [50]

The Romeo Ferraris TCR Giulietta QV

In 2015, the Italian tuning garage Romeo Ferraris started to work, without the marques help, in the Alfa Romeo Giulietta to race in TCR International Series, appearing under the banner of Mulsanne Racing, with Michela Cerruti for the first two races of the 2016 season. They returned in the 5th round in Salzburgring with second car for Petř Fulín and a new color scheme, staying in the championship until the end of the year with two cars. For 2016 season, the engine was tuned for 330 PS (243 kW; 325 hp). [51]

In 2017, Davit Kajaia and Dusan Borković joined forces with Romeo Ferraris and raced the full TCR-season as GE-Force, taking three victories in Georgia, Bahrain and Salzburgring.

In 2018, mostly because WTCC and TCR Internacional became one, the team Mulsanne Racing entered the World Touring Car Cup (WTCR) with two Alfa Romeo Giulietta QV for the two Alfa Romeo legends Gianni Morbidelli, which raced until Vila Real being replaced by Kevin Ceccon (who scored a race win in Suzuka), and Fabrizio Giovanardi, who was replaced in the Suzuka round by Luigi "Gigi" Ferrara (2nd overall in TCR Italy 2018). For 2018 season, the car produced over 350 PS (257 kW; 345 hp). [52]

For the 2019 season, the car received a major aerodynamic upgrade being renamed as "Alfa Romeo Giulietta Veloce". Team Mulsanne maintained Ceccon and hired Ma Qing Hua (ex-Formula E and WTCC driver). Alongside the World Cup cars, Romeo Ferraris will have about 8–10 Giuliettas racing in TCR Italy, UK, US, Australia and China.

In 2020 the Team Mulsanne car driven by Jean-Karl Vernay entered into the World Touring Car Cup finished 3rd in the Championship overall and won the WTCR Trophy as the highest car without factory support.

In Jan 2022 it won the TCR section of the Michelin Pilot Challenge race in Daytona USA.

Awards

The Giulietta came as second in European Car of the Year 2011. [53] The Multiair engines used in Giulietta was voted for the best new engine in 2010. [54] The car has also collected the following awards:
