I am 76 and have owned three rear wheel drive Alfa over 30 years, a Berlina 1.6, an Alfetta 1.7 and finally a Giulietta 2.0 (for 24 years). Only serious health problems forced me to sell the Giulietta. I regret it every day. There is something about rear wheel drive Alfas which is so special that if I recover I will buy a Giulia Veloce at the drop of a hat. Yes Alfas require regular servicing and are not perfect but not in a reliability sense. Yes they demand that you drive them with some concentration but then give you back such delicious feedback as a reward. They truly become an extension of your fingers and toes. And that exhaust note! Please at least test drive a Giulia before buying a German brand. If you are the right type you won’t be able to resist. I promise.

Picked up a 2018 TI Sport and am loving it. Such a fun car to drive, and with the tunable knob you can switch from hooning to miserly gas mileage at the twist of the wrist. Steering is quick, the AWD version puts the 280hp down smartly, and my research has shown no meaningful reliability issues out there. It's just something I see people like you keep repeating, despite none of you owning one. :) Great car, highly underrated, and the red interior is 👌

Let me re-clarify: Yes Alfa's are awesome. Yes they are more reliable than most are aware of. Way better than any Merc or Bmw in its class? FALSE. lol A Ti gets out classed all day. The only Alfa that outclasses the German's is the Quadrifoglio. But even that is in M3 and AMG C43 territory and the new M3 is no slouch. A Ti has like 280hp lmao So it sits right between a 330i and 340i. Wouldn't say it outclasses anything really. It's a great car. It's superior in handling that's for sure. Sadly, dealer networks are lacking compared to other European brands. Especially in the states.

Ah yes, Alfa Romeo….a sublime history associated with an historic badge. And the Alfa Giulia? That will be a car for the cognoscenti, the driver who knows what he’s looking for in terms of driving dynamics, panache and style. He’s the chap who cares little whether the out-of-sight plastics contain the odd rough edge, there aren’t enough cup holders on the dash and the, ahem, ‘infotainment system’ isn’t quite world beating. No, provided he has unlimited pleasure at looking at the car when parked, being inside the car and surrounded by a very pleasing interior and knows that when he puts his foot on the accelerator the car responds with classic Alfa Romeo driving character and ability, he will indeed know there could be no other choice. BMW, Audi or Mercedes Benz? No….just too common.

My 67 plate Veloce is on 55k miles, and the only reliability issue has been with the German Bosch battery system, shared with the BMW. Its a lovely car to drive. I find the autobox shifts a bit early for me, so use the paddles every day. As others have said, you can't help but look back when you park it and think how gorgeous it is. Do the same with one of the German alternatives and you think "which one's mine again" Edit -bought the Alfa after trying BMW M140i and M340i. They were too clinical and boring to drive. Totally dead compared to the Alfa which is in a different league

I have the same car but a 22 that we got last year and absolutely love it. It is so fun to drive and a great road trip car. I do love the new dash and head lights but if I'm honest you can find slightly used Giulias in the states for a big price difference over new and I think that is the better way to go. My only complaint that I have had with the year of having it is it has to have the worst paint I have ever had in a car. The amount of bad rock chips in the paint in just a year is very bad compared to any other cars I've had and it isn't even the nose specifically. I also wish it came with the older 5 hole wheels instead of those new ones as I'm not a big fan vs the old. Great review though and hope to see them grow more over here in the states.

I have owned 3 Alfas, 2 156 models, a 2.4 diesel and a 2 litre JTS, both were fabulous cars to drive and the diesel was a sportwagon which I drove 45000 miles in 2 years until someone on the phone in his car, drove into the backend writing it off. The petrol one I did around 20000 miles in 18 months until I gave it to my daughter. The other was a 145 Colverleaf and a scream to drive and pissed all over GTIs of the day. I had a go in a diesel Giulia and it felt just like a BMW 3 series, which I had owned previously. I thought if I wanted a BMW I would buy one. I also thought that if I bought a Giulia I would buy this one, the 280hp model. I have driven high powered cars and enjoyed them too BUT it encourages one to go a bit too fast and these days that is stupid, too many speed cameras and too much traffic. I would lose my licence in a heartbeat. Alfa twin cam engines are simply brilliant, they developed them for many years and they are silky smooth for a 4 cylinder engine! Alfa made a great little car.

drove previous(2021Y) alfa with this 280hp engine: -slow 100-200 -can not turn off DSC to enjoy car in winter -slow gearbox -bad quality interior(could be better this time) -obsolete infotainment(could be better this time) +good steering +lovely design ==no competition to BMW in terms of speed and fun IMHO. Even Octavia RS was faster 100-200 than this 280hp Alfa for half of the price.

My town has one of the very few Alfa Dealers I personally have ever seen. I remember when this car was released they left several in the grass as advertising next to the road. Those cars sat for many many months as nobody bought a single one despite being on a very busy road. See a decent amount of the crossover they make.

I'm sorry dude but ANOTHER Epic Fail at 8:53 when you mention "reliability concerns" ... 2017 Giulia Quad 40,000 glorious miles and still flying high 2018 Stelvio Ti Sport 2 year lease 2020 Stelvio Ti Sport current daily ...just purchased off lease. These cars are not 1970 Alfettas with two piece head gaskets that used to blow up routinely. Let's put the cliché reliability nonsense out to pasture. Have you ever owned a German car ? Let me tell you my WONDERFUL UBER QUALITY GERMAN CAR EXPERIENCES M 3 Sub Frame Crack M 5 Rod Bearing Failure 911 IMS Bearing Failure S 5 Head Gasket Failures Bangle 7 Series ...Do I even need to explain ? Come on Tim....Kick up your game and don't rely on HEARSAY...you're better than that

The UK just doesn't value Alfa Romeo's. A 2019 Alfa Romeo veloce with only 15K or so miles on the club is available these days for less than 25K. That is a ridiculous depreciation value in less than 4 years.

I still don't get why they keep trying to make a point about Alfa Romeo reliability. Since the 1990's untill 2020 I owned AlfaSud QV from 1983, Alfa 33 TI from 1988, aLFA 33 QV from 1990, Alfa 146 TI 2.0 TS 16v from 1994 on lpg , Alfa 156 2.0 TS 16V Sportwagon from 2000 on lpg , Alfa Giulietta 1.4 Turbo from 2014 on lpg. The alfa's from 1983, 1988 had rust and electrical issues. The alfa from 1990 no rust and electrical issues, maintained by dealer km 400,000. Alfa 146 TI, no issues km 450,000, alfa 156 chiptuned by squadra tuning, sweet engine fast and efficient 560,000 km., Alfa Giulietta no issues km 250,000. Other than normal maintenance once a year, tires breaks, exhaust I had no other problems with these cars, but all were maintained by dealer or Alfa Romeo Specialist garage. So tell me what are the reliability issues? And is it the car or you, trying to cut on maintenance for example. As a side note, the Alfa Romeo/Fiat engines were the best for lpg, absolutely no issues or loss of power. Try that with audi, bmw or other brands. Now that is quality.

Jap I can agree with you. On 156 a have over 530.000km 9 years ago and this car is still on the road. Then a owned for 7 years 159Ti and give it to my brother with 420.000km and now a drive Giulia for 2 years now and have 280.000km. I work in VAG service and I can tell you that this "german relaiability" is no where to be seen. From 2020 I think it is even worse.

Trust me this car handles way better than AB. MW. I haven't even looked at this video yet. I'm just comedy based on the thumb nail take it from a person that's been a b m w Is lover an owner sense 1989. I was involved in a head on collision 2 years ago where somebody totaled my car and the rent a car place gave me an Alfa Romero I fell in love with it, and I never drove a b m w ever again.

Better than a 3 series? No contest actually. The 3 series used to mean something but these days it is the business man's (woman's) taxi. If you want something to drive and enjoy ... look elsewhere. The Giulia is a fantastic car. I have owned one for nearly 2 years without any issues. Goes great. Steering it through the Adelaide hills is an absolute pleasure. Having said that, I am not a fan of the new look. Previously (like my car) it had an organic look like an animal stalking you if you see it in the rear mirror ... now it looks like what? a Robot?

Nice car but I had to go with 530xd touring. Alfa would be too small.

I've got a M340i and frankly it's all a bit too clinical and accomplished meaning it's a bit boring. Had far more fun in my previous Golf R even if it wasn't technically as good a car. So if Alfa did a 3 series sized estate (as opposed SUVs) then .......
