The Alfa Romeo Giulia is a compact four-door luxury sports sedan capable of seating up to five passengers. All models feature either a rear-wheel drive or an all-wheel-drive layout with a 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine or a high-performance, Ferrari-derived 2.9-liter twin-turbo V6, exclusively with rear-wheel drive. 

The original Giulia nameplate was introduced by Alfa Romeo in the early 1960s, as a premium, four-door sedan. The nameplate expanded to a family of sports sedans and coupes by the mid-1960s rather than just a singular model. The Giulia coupe was introduced in 1965 as a sports coupe with the race track in mind, with production lasting until the early 1970s. The sedan held on through the late 1970s before the nameplate vanished altogether from the European market. 

The Giulia was reintroduced to the world in 2015 and to the American market for the 2017 model year. Since then, it has set itself apart with an excellent driving experience, stylish good looks, and impressive overall performance, particularly from the top-spec Quadrifoglio model. Minor tweaks and additions have been made throughout its U.S. model run so far, and it has undergone a mild refresh for 2024. 

Slight styling updates to the headlights and taillights are accompanied by a more modern 12.3-inch digital gauge cluster inside. A mechanical limited-slip differential has replaced the outgoing torque-vectoring unit on Quadrifoglio models, and the Competizione trim has replaced the Estrema trim.

### Key Features and Highlights

The Alfa Romeo Giulia competes with other compact luxury sedans such as the [Audi A4](https://www.autolist.com/audi-a4), the [BMW 3-Series](https://www.autolist.com/bmw-3+series), the [Genesis G70](https://www.autolist.com/genesis-g70), the [Mercedes-Benz C-Class](https://www.autolist.com/mercedes+benz-c+class), the [Volvo S60](https://www.autolist.com/volvo-s60), the [Cadillac CT4](https://www.autolist.com/cadillac-ct4), and the [Lexus IS](https://www.autolist.com/lexus-is+300). 

Quadrifoglio models offer much higher performance specs than trims with the smaller, less powerful four-cylinder engine, and they compete more directly with high-performance versions of these vehicles like the [BMW M3](https://www.autolist.com/bmw-m3), the [Mercedes-Benz C43 AMG](https://www.autolist.com/mercedes+benz-c+class-amg+c+43), the [Cadillac CT4-V Blackwing](https://www.autolist.com/cadillac-ct4+v#trim[]=Blackwing), and the [Lexus IS 500 F Sport Performance](https://www.autolist.com/lexus-is+500#trim[]=F%20SPORT%20Performance).

#### Styling

Alfa Romeo has a long history of making stunning vehicles. The 2024 Giulia is no exception. Its updated headlights are slimmer than before, giving the Giulia a more aggressive stance that complements its crossover brother, the Alfa Romeo Stelvio. The Giulia remains the looker of the family, though, a it is one of the most beautifully designed vehicles on sale today. 

#### Driving Dynamics

The Giulia’s driving dynamics are another of its strengths. The entry-level powerplant has plenty of grunt, and the top-end 2.9-liter V6 is an absolute beast. Each model is well-balanced and has impressive road-holding, even when compared with some of the most engaging German saloons. 

Any variant will be fun to drive, a characteristic that many other competitors have lost in recent years in favor of comfort and refinement. 

#### Pricing

The cheapest Alfa Romeo Giulia Sprint starts at $44,935 with the destination fee included. The most expensive Giulia before graduating from the 2.0-liter turbo to the more powerful twin-turbo V6 is the Competizione. It starts at $53,615 with the destination fee included. 

Flagship Alfa Romeo Giulia Quadrifoglio models start at $81,855 with the destination fee included. The Quadrifoglio Carbon trim serves as the top-tier Giulia model available for 2024. It starts at $87,780 and can rise to well over $90,000 when extras are equipped. 

#### Performance and Driving Experience

![2024 Alfa Romeo Giulia Speedmeter (Efficiency)](https://www.autolist.com/6tuem73u73an/27I6CTzfOs1xCXDl5QYrJi/1964b431962a971ed80bbe65ce06c318/2024_Alfa_Romeo_Giulia_Speedmeter__Efficiency_.jpg)

The Alfa Romeo Giulia comes with the choice of two engine options and two different drivetrains. Its entry-level powertrain is a 280-horsepower turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine and rear-wheel drive. All-wheel drive can be equipped on any Giulia model with the four-cylinder powerplant for a $2,000 upcharge.

The second engine is a 505-horsepower 2.9-liter twin-turbo V6. The all-wheel drive option from the smaller engine is not available with Quadrifoglios, which come strictly with rear-wheel drive. All Giulia models come with an eight-speed automatic transmission without the option to equip a manual.

Both powertrains are superbly calibrated to provide an exciting, sporty, and effortless driving experience. The Giulia’s Dynamic, Natural, and Advanced Efficiency drive modes perform well and produce noticeable differences in the transmission shifting and throttle responsiveness. Quadrifoglio models benefit from an additional Race mode that tightens everything up further for maximum performance. 

The four-cylinder turbo propels the Giulia to 60 MPH in 5.5 seconds. Quadrifoglio models can hit 60 MPH in 3.5 seconds with the help of 443 lb-ft of torque. Each model's brakes do a fine job of stopping the car. 

Conservative drivers may not be as comfortable in the Giulia when it settles down as they would be in cushier rivals. Still, the suspension is balanced enough to provide reasonable comfort while maintaining its sports-car-like attitude. 

Rear-wheel drive models and the 2.0-liter turbo earn EPA fuel economy estimates of 24 MPG in the city and 33 MPG on the highway for a combined total of 27 MPG. AWD models with the same engine lower estimates to 23 MPG in the city and 31 MPG on the highway. Quadrifoglios with the twin-turbo V6 return 17 MPG in the city and 25 MPG on the highway for a combined EPA fuel economy estimate of 20 MPG. 

#### Interior Design and Comfort

![2024 Alfa Romeo Giulia Front Seats](https://www.autolist.com/6tuem73u73an/5EjMypBdccLpb8yNKR9zQt/d57fae902e99ae8c67ad9e1bb18b1ae7/2024_Alfa_Romeo_Giulia_Front_Seats.jpg)

Despite high-quality materials covering the interior of the car, its layout and overall feel can't match German rivals such as the BMW 3-Series, the Audi A4, and the Mercedes-Benz C-Class. Leather upholstery is standard with each model, as well as other convenience features such as power-operated front seats, heated front seats, heated rear seats, dual-zone climate control, an auto-dimming rearview mirror, a heated steering wheel, and a leather-wrapped steering wheel. 

Front-seat passengers get 42.4 inches of legroom and rear-seat passengers have 35.1 inches. This can cause discomfort for larger occupants, but is more than the smallest segment competitors offer. Trunk space is on the small side for the segment at 13.4 cubic feet. The rear seats fold down to open up trunk space and a power tailgate is standard. 

As for infotainment, an 8.8-inch touchscreen, a 12.3-inch digital gauge cluster, Android Auto, Apple CarPlay, navigation, wireless device charging, and an eight-speaker audio system are all standard. A 14-speaker Harman Kardon audio system is one of the few available optional items. 

The infotainment system’s small touchscreen and less intuitive layout than that of best-in-class rivals takes the edge off the Giula's appeal. Stellar interiors and infotainment systems from the likes of BMW and Mercedes-Benz set the bar for the segment.

#### Safety and Advanced Features

Neither the NHTSA nor the IIHS had officially given the 2024 Alfa Romeo Giulia a safety rating at the time of writing. The IIHS has, however, awarded Giulia a 'Good' crash test rating in both the moderate overlap and side tests. 

Despite its lack of official safety ratings, the Giulia comes with many advanced driver assistance features. Forward collision warning, automatic emergency braking, automatic high beam headlights, lane-departure warning, and adaptive cruise control are all standard on with every Giulia. 

Advanced safety features such as blind-spot monitoring, lane-keep assist, traffic sign recognition, a highway assist system, Intelligent Speed Assist, and traffic jam assist are optional as part of a $700 package that can be equipped on each trim level except the base Sprint. 

#### Price and Value

![2024 Alfa Romeo Giulia Front (Value)](https://www.autolist.com/6tuem73u73an/LPb3MsiH5yT1otEY9KJzJ/537119c6cb13acac9eb78c190056e82e/2024_Alfa_Romeo_Giulia_Front__Value_.jpg)

Each Giula also has a four-year/50,000-mile powertrain warranty.

The base model __Alfa Romeo Giulia Sprint__ has a starting MSRP of $44,935 after the destination fee is added. It features a 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine that produces 280 horsepower and 306 lb-ft of torque, an eight-speed automatic transmission, and rear-wheel drive.

Next in the lineup is the __Alfa Romeo Giulia Ti__. RWD models start at $46,935, and AWD models cost $48,935 after the destination fee is added. The engine and transmission from the Spring model carry over to the Ti. 

Ti models come with all the standard features from the Sprint plus 18-inch alloy wheels, a dual-pane sunroof, and Ti badging. The red brake caliper and red leather sport seat options carry over to this model. $750 Saddle Brown leather seats and several additional 19-inch aluminum wheel options ranging from $1,750 to $2,250 become available to buyers.

Several package options are also available. A $1,935 Performance Driving package includes 19-inch alloy wheels, performance tires, red brake calipers, power-adjustable seat bolsters, and red leather sport seats. A $2,225 Premium Interior and Sound package awards buyers with a 14-speaker Harman Kardon premium audio system as well as a leather dash and upper doors. 

Finally, buyers can equip the $700 Active Assist Plus package which includes blind-spot monitoring, lane-keep assist, traffic sign recognition, a highway assist system, Intelligent Speed Assist, and traffic jam assist.

The next model in the lineup is the __Alfa Romeo Giulia Veloce__. It comes with the same standard and available powertrain options as the trim levels below it as well as the standard features from the Ti trim level. 19-inch alloy wheels are standard, as is a rear diffuser. The red leather seating option remains available. Wider 19-inch wheels with summer tires are available for an additional $1,250. 

Both the Premium Interior and Sound Package and the Active Assist Plus package are available.

The __Alfa Romeo Giulia Competizione__ is next in the lineup and features the same powertrain options as the trim levels below it. Its starting price is $53,615 after the destination fee is added. The standard features from the Veloce model carry over to the Competizione except for active suspension, leather sport seats with red stitching, and the 14-speaker Harman Kardon audio system, all of which are standard.

The wheel and tire upgrades from the Veloce remain optional, as does the Active Assist Plus package.

The __Alfa Romeo Giulia Quadrifoglio__ starts at $81,855 with the destination fee included. It comes exclusively with rear-wheel drive. A twin-turbocharged 2.9-liter V6 engine that produces 505 horsepower and 443 lb-ft of torque lives under the hood, and the eight-speed automatic transmission is standard. 

All of the standard features from the Competizione model carry over to the Quadrifoglio with a few upgrades: Brembo brakes, a dual-mode quad exhaust system, summer tires, a carbon fiber rear spoiler, a carbon fiber rocker panel, a Quadrifoglio rear diffuser, black leather sport seats, power-adjustable seat bolsters, aluminum pedals, a Quadrifoglio carbon fiber steering wheel, and race mode drive select capability.

Options on the Quadrifoglio trim include $750 red brake calipers, $750 Dark Tecnico 19-inch wheels, a $2,500 exposed carbon roof, $3,000 Alcantara race seats, and the $700 Active Assist Plus package available on other models across the lineup.

The __Alfa Romeo Giulia Quadrifoglio Carbon__ trim sits atop the lineup at $87,780. It shares its powertrain and standard features with the base Quadrifoglio model. Gold calipers, a carbon fiber grille, carbon fiber side mirrors, red leather sport seats, and Miron Black badging are standard.

The Dark Tecnico wheels, carbon fiber roof, and Active Assist Plus package remain optional.

Consumer Reports gives the 2024 Alfa Romeo Giulia a lower-than-average predicted reliability score, while J.D. Power does not have reliability data for the 2024 model year Guilia. Quadrifoglio models will likely cost the most to own and maintain out of the lineup due to their specialized parts, higher performance, and higher insurance costs.

Car Edge predicts that the average Giulia will lose 44% of its value over a five-year period – a higher projected depreciation rate than both the BMW 3-Series and the Audi A4. The Mercedes-Benz C-Class has a slightly higher predicted depreciation rate than the Alfa Romeo. 

### Customer Reviews and Ratings

Italian cars have long been known for their beautiful looks and excellent driving dynamics. Consumer Reports’ above-average predicted owner satisfaction score backs up that claim, especially because existing owners typically gush about the driving experience. Nearly every owner mentions the excellent feel and performance of the car in some form or fashion.

Although most owners who post reviews about the Giulia have positive things to say about how it looks, feels, and drives, they also note that interior space is tight. Some mention minor reliability issues that have caused concern. Italian cars have a reputation for being unreliable and expensive to repair. This will certainly be the case for some owners, but most have been pleasantly surprised at their own low cost of ownership thus far.
