Alfa Romeo announces that it will showcase the brand new Alfa Romeo Giulietta at the 2010 Geneva Auto Show.
Four engines, all of them turbocharged, will be available at launch. The 1.4TB is the baby with 88kW (120hp), followed by the 1.4TB MultiAir making 125kW (170hp). The other two are diesel-powered. One is a 1.6 JTDM producing 77kW (105hp) while the more powerful 2.0 JTDM is good for 125kW (170hp). An exclusive 173kW (235hp) petrol Quadrifoglio Verde model will be sold at a later stage.
Alfa has fitted the car with its DNA (Dynamic, Normal and All Weather) system which gives the driver three varying options for different driving situations. It has a Q2 electronic differential and a stability control system (VDC).
Style and design have always been Alfa Romeo's strong points and the Giulietta seems to keep that perception alive. The front end has what they call a "trilobe shape" with the Alfa grille set into the front bumper and suspended between the two air intakes. LED daytime running lights are included for both front and rear lights clusters. Similar to the old 156 sedan, the rear door handles are concealed as a matter of flair thus enhancing its coupe-like exterior.
