2022 marks the 60th anniversary of the presentation of the original Alfa Romeo Giulia saloon, one of the Milanese marque's most significant commercial successes in the period and perhaps its most popular model among collectors nowadays. #alfaromeogiulia #alfaromeo #history
While the Giulia's basic engineering can be considered an incremental improvement over the Giulietta it replaced, its exterior design was a complete revolution, born out of pioneering aerodynamic wind tunnel research carried out using Turin's Polytechnic facility.
It must be pointed out, though, that the 0.34 Cd figure that's often quoted for the Giulia Berlina is actually a misprint, with the actual figure being around 0.43, according to a 2007 interview with former Alfa Romeo engineer Domenico Chirico. After fifteen years of service, some of which have arguably been the company's best, the Alfa Romeo Giulia was replaced, on the market but arguably not in the hearts, by the striking "Nuova Giulietta" in 1977.
