Alfa Romeo Giulietta QV 2015 review - Car Keys

Read the full written review of the Alfa Romeo Giulietta QV here: www.carkeys.co...
The Alfa Romeo Giulietta is a stylish alternative to hatchbacks like the Volkswagen Golf and Ford Focus. Sitting at the top of its range is the Quadrifoglio Verde, which replaces the Cloverleaf. The Giulietta QV is a true hot hatch, featuring the same 1.75-litre engine and dual-clutch gearbox found in Alfa Romeo’s 4C sports car.
The performance figures certainly look impressive on paper, but can the Giulietta QV match up to other similarly sized hot hatches? Watch our video review to find out. or skip to bits of key information using the links below:

Let's be honest, this is a really pretty car.

Now, I'm not a dictionary by any means but I'm pretty certain that what you've written there is bollocks.

[@SavioureG]

Was there any doubt? :P

[@damikedaevil4582]

@flynnthelizardboy1 you must been looking in the mirror

[@CMYUJAMES]

This is one of the best handling car I have ever driven.

[@KanishQQuotes]

You buy an Alfa because you have a heart

[@targaflorio3239]

Just bought a QV Manual. Loving it. Such an underrated Golf GTI alternative.

[@markperera1877]

Alfaromeo is a racing brand and pedigree, they just need to start making good old racing cars just like the ones they used to make back in the day!

[@fernandorosas7372]

I currently own a BMW 1 series 118i urban line 2014, definetly my next car will be a giulietta, its just gorgeous.

[@martf8014]

+Fernando Rosas as your used to bmw build i would not recommend you buy a giulietta

[@andrewwalton8822]

+mart f - I own a BMW and an Alfa, The BMW "feels" better built but in reality the Alfa is actually proving more reliable and doesn't constantly rust like the Beemer!

[@martinfagan4550]

+ANDREW WALTON we own an audi and an alfa the audi is a class act no issues at all. alfa has constant rattle from behind the dashboard blue and me faults all the time and the paint is chipping far to quickly i could go on and on to be honest.

[@fernandorosas7372]

Update: Many ppl have told me that having an alfa romeo (at least in my country) is like driving a problem (delicate, expensive services, no spare parts) and its true, because you will hardly see one in the streets of Mexico. Wanted another hatchback, but if the alfa romeo is not a good choice, neither is the volvo v40 (for almost the same reasons), i will stick with BMW, it has been amazing and 100% reliable, going for a M235i in a couple months!

[@WayneStark626]

So from rear wheel drive to front wheel

[@Miniorpernik]

Best looking car in the branch hands down.Some front /rear deffusers/fairings..side skirts,ecm remap and a little beast is reborn.

[@laurarahill6188]

How has it been going? I'm going to test drive a 2016 tomorrow and might by but afraid of reliability ,seeing mixed reviews

[@natpound77]

@@laurarahill6188 did you buy it? i have a 63 plate, turbo blew up at 55k miles!! textbook alfa.. but an amazing car to drive

[@laurarahill6188]

I bought it yes second hand 70000 miles

[@vishnukasula]

I drive this car and I love it.....it's a HEAD TURNER

[@John_Stur]

Did you have any issues with the QV ? Also what's your petrol consumption? Currently looking into getting one XD

[@adrianpalmeredwards9755]

The second reviewer to say about the cheap plastics, I've owned VW Golfs, & BMW's the plastic in those are exactly the same as in the Alfa, so im baffled

[@realreviews4017]

Yes, but are they soft touch plastics, or Piano black gloss lol. I have a mito and often think it's a bit cheapo on plastics, but then I've sat in more expensive better thought of cars, Mini, BMW and noticed the same scuff attracting plastics in the doors , and the air vents

[@heinedenmark]

It certainly looks and sounds very good. As a proper sporty Italian should. But I can't wait for its RWD replacement. That's going to be awesome!

[@nicholasbell4000]

Its a very nice looking vehicle, but if you went for the matt paint finish, after the first week you'd be looking enviously at any other shiny new car on the road.

[@davidholmes2616]

Just purchased a gulietta 2litre turbo diesel 2018 plate and I'm buzzing.

[@papadingdong2149]

Thought I recognised where you were filming because I live there hahaha

[@apostolostv]

After the Giulia comes next spring, Alfa needs to bring the Giulietta next. Really want a QV.

[@luketaplin42]

I have one and it’s more than enough for a B road Bash Looks stunning too

[@71Serai]

It is super pretty and has very impressive performance

[@guidoguide9300]

got a Giulietta as First car, but the small 1.4 120PS engine. Really sporty and sharp though !

[@SavioureG]

same here, eventually wanna chip tune and to 150PS with a RaceChip RS.

[@callum-Watson]

I have the 1.4tb 170ps my baby I love it

[@Lennon578]

Alfa's make the nicest cars, they have had a bad rap with the older cars they made. Lets hope the currant management team makes the newer cars more reliable

[@nicksellens272]

I love it. A quantum leap from my old 147.

[@dangerhighvoltages]

0:13 second mark kerbed wheel makes me sad :(

[@S13mASSImo]

Anti-reflection layers on glasses really matter!! Nice review though!

[@utdminiman]

Ooh the scuff on the passenger side alloy

[@bigleyling]

saw the scuff too, heart breaking!

[@Monacofm12]

Looks good outside St George's Hall, tbf.

[@yolkava9458]

The Alfa is like Sony Mobile phones. Gorgeous design and performance but unfortunately it isn't the Apple or Samsung of cars Audi, BMW. Hopefully they will start to advertise these more!

[@milanjovanovic8708]

Everyone now have "apple" or "samsung" even if they have to loan money for it, i want something that doesn't everyone have

wonderful review - many thanks

[@andrewallan5442]

Looking really really old inside now, replacement needed. That being said, in the right spec , looks great from the outside. Build quality is its only major flaw...

[@ChelseaFCMario]

i would get one if the front was the same as my 159!!

[@oliverdevarenne]

Looks great!

[@pegasuslux9701]

Congratulations Alfa Romeo.

[@dnshable]

The number plate kind of ruins the symmetry

[@petermarshall3880]

That guy needs to look at the road more and at the camera less. I bet he kerbed the beautiful alloy wheel!

[@KanishQQuotes]

@Mark Perera Will you buy one if they did

[@f1rstclass596]

Want one, thanks a lot Alfa Romeo.

L'Alfa Romeo wear out those who don't.

[@MisterStrood]

2:50 yeah,it is true there is no comfortable suspension for crappy British potholed roads

[@alphalobster8021]

Strange review. Why would anybody buy a QV? Speed, fun, dynamics and handling with the possibility of an occasional trackday. Shopping trolly style review is not the thing.

[@itsomarinnit4056]

I made a mistake buying this... Once in a blue moon it'll make me smile and apart from sounding nice the odd occasion the performance is terrible

[@AliTaylor777]

Then you're doing something wrong! Mine is fantastic fun and I came to it after and Evo X FQ330. The performance really isn't far behind that at all and, unlike the Evo where almost everything mechanical broke over 3 years, the Alfa has been faultless.

[@milanjovanovic8708]

@@AliTaylor777 how is your alfa now? Did it serve u right?

[@AliTaylor777]

@@milanjovanovic8708 I traded it in after 2 and 1/2 years for a Giulia Quadrifoglio! The Giulietta was faultless in all that time. Shame I can’t say the same for the Giulia!

had one for 2 years and hated it so much. poor materials and build let it down so much

+mart f I did hear around about AR Giulietta devouring own driver, very sad story.

[@asr1143]

i see many of them in germany for sale with around 30 thousand kilometres on the clock, why is that, are people disappoint with the car or might be some issues the car has.

Your preasenting style is to discracting, look at the road & not the camera. I was waiting for you to crash or just be stopped for driving without care & attention

[@durzoblint123]

Looks great , but not as sexy as the Mazda 3 , 2015

[@pete3198]

+ahhsoulcyb Well looks ARE subjective at the end of the day...but I must say, this is the first time I've ever heard anybody refer to a Mazda 3 as 'sexy'. I find they look terribly boring and generic, personally.

you now the day the warrnety ends the car will blow up!

[@kevinmarshall8590]

Fool!

[@stephenkoh6854]

so have you experienced that before, if not, shut up!

[@AliTaylor777]

Well, I bought a Giulietta QV 6 months ago and the list of things that have gone wrong is....er....non existent. Before it, I owned an Evo X, WRX STI, RX8 and Civic Type R, and this is already more reliable than all of those. I love it!

[@gaffnaldo1]

I like alfa's, but i think this is utterly hideous
