2021 Alfa Romeo Giulia Ti Sport AWD

Model Highlights

The Giulia comes in three basic flavors: the base Giulia, the upscale Giulia Ti and the high-performance Giulia Quadrifoglio. At the heart of the Giulia and Giulia Ti is a high-pressure 2.0L 4-cylinder turbocharged engine making 280 horsepower and 306 lb-feet of torque. Power is sent to the rear wheels via an 8-speed automatic transmission. Should buyers specify, the Giulia and the Giulia Ti can be equipped with an all-wheel drive option. Either way, the Giulia can comfortably hit 60 mph in under six seconds. The Quadrifoglio variant is on another level. Alfa Romeo claims that the Giulia Quadrifoglio is the most powerful production car they've ever built offering a staggering 505 horsepower from a 2.9L V6 thanks to twin turbochargers. All that power is sent to the rear wheels and Alfa Romeo claims it will hit 60 mph in only 3.8 seconds. Regardless of which Giulia buyers choose, equipment and options are similar to competitors in this price range, which is to say very nice, with plenty of available options to make the cars even nicer. Base Giulia models come with 17-inch wheels, bi-xenon headlamps, LED daytime running lamps, an 8.8-inch screen for in car entertainment and the backup camera, rear parking sensors, keyless entry and keyless go, leather seating, dual-zone climate control, 3 USB ports, Bluetooth and Apple CarPlay/Android Auto integration, steering wheel mounted audio controls and an integrated garage door opener. The Giulia Ti isn't much more expensive than the base Giulia, but it gets bigger 18-inch wheels, front and rear parking sensors, heated front seats and a heated steering wheel, along with a nicer interior featuring dark grey oak interior accents. The Quadrifoglio has 19-inch aluminum wheels and unique exterior aero bits along with lots of tricks to make it go faster and handle better. Among these tricks are an active torque vectoring rear differential and an active suspension which lets drivers determine the driving mode with the touch of a button. Combined, these two features give the Quadrifoglio a truly sports car like handling, making it the kind of no compromise vehicle that people could have only dreamed of a few years ago. Option packages on the Giulia include a driver assistance package and a sport appearance package. Some of the safety LEVEL II ADAS features added this year include: Highway assist system, Traffic jam assist system, Traffic sign recognition, Lane Keep Assist, Active Blind Spot Assist and Driver attention alert and standard Full-speed Forward Collision Warning-Plus. Stand-alone options include a wide variety of wheels, wireless charging pad and a big dual-pane sunroof.
