Andate sul sito alfa romeo, hanno aggiornato tutto

Se guardate in "scopri Giulietta", poi "esterni" nella pagine 4 c'è una foto Rossa. Chi mi dice che Rosso è?

Questa:

Posso solo dirti che condivido i tuoi dubbi sul rosso: non si capisce una mazza.

Innanzi tutto sul sito non riesco ad andare oltre la 3a pagina sugli "esterni", quindi questa immagine la vedo da qua.

Confrontandolo col colore che compare sul configuratore potrebbe parlarsi di rosso alfa; ma allora quel rosso più sbiadito dei test in Svezia e Sud Africa che rosso era??

Allo stesso tempo può sembrare che non si discosti molto dal rosso 8c delle Giulietta di cui alla presentazione (anzi di primo acchito sarei propeso per questo), anche se - come giustamente notato - la tonalità in questione risulta alquanto cangiante.

Insomma, BOHHHH.....

Ps. secondo me prendila grigio magnesio (e pure qui, bella differenza tra quello in foto e il configuratore..)

Nella mia classifica personale "i Colori della Giulietta" il Blu profondo sta prendendo tantissimi punti dopo averlo visto in foto reali!

..ma secondo me Rosso Alfa spacca veramente.. non avrà mai la particolarità del Competizione ma quella tonalità rossa viva sanguigna mette i brividi (si..lo so..sto esagerando..mannaggia a me e al giorno in cui son diventato Alfista :mrgreen: )

La Giulietta Rosso Competizione mi piace da morire, mentre metalizzata non mi ispira proprio, nera un po meglio.

Il Rosso Competizione è metallizzato, mentre il Rosso Alfa è pastello.

Questa mi sembra Rosso Alfa, ma rinnovo il consiglio di guardarla dal vivo (e non sotto i neon) prima di scegliere il colore.

Iniziano ad essere pubblicate le prime prove su strada.

Autocar la definisce addirittura "la miglior Alfa da decenni".

What is it?

The Giulietta is Alfa Romeo’s replacement for the 10-year-old 147, a brand new design that aims to show how this 100-year-old manufacturer can challenge class leaders like VW Golf and Ford Focus for refinement and practicality, while bringing Alfa’s “special values” of agility and responsiveness to a wider audience.

It gets first use of the Fiat’s new Compact platform, an all-new structure to be used for many future Fiat, Alfa/Lancia and Chrysler models. Both the chassis and its all-new suspension (MacPherson struts in front; multilink behind) make copious use of lightweight materials and mass-saving design.

The fact that a new Alfa gets first use of all this hardware — which includes advanced electric power steering that “suggests” corrections when the car gets out of shape - gives it an advantage the marque has rarely enjoyed since 1984 when its association with Fiat began.

What's it like?

Alfa makes a big thing of the Giulietta’s lightness and good power to weight ratio. The truth isn’t quite so clear-cut. The car does have a lighter body-in-white than its predecessor but it is 150mm longer, 80mm wider and, model for model, and only about 20 kilograms lighter than before. That’s a creditable achievement, but it still makes the car about 100kg heavier than its most obvious rival, the VW Golf 1.4 TSi.

The Giulietta comes to the UK this June in three trim levels and with a choice of four engines (1.4 litre/104bhp and 2.0 litre/168bhp turbodiesels; 1.4 litre/118bhp and 1.4 litre Multiair/168bhp petrol turbos).

All have Stop&Start, six-speed stick-shift gearboxes, a “DNA” switch on their consoles offering two different regimes (plus a Snow setting) that vary steering effort, accelerator response, electronic stability intervention and settings for the Q2 electronic differential. Veloce models get firmer spring/damper rates plus standard 17-inch alloys wheels with 225/45 tyres instead of the standard 16-inch alloys on 205/55s.

For performance enthusiasts there will be a skirted, specially-badged Cloverleaf model offering a sportier-still suspension, a 1798cc “1750” turbo petrol engine with 232bhp on overboost, bigger brakes and the option of 18-inch alloys wearing 225/40 tyres.

Our test car was arguably the most advanced Giulietta of all, the 1.4 litre Multiair petrol turbo with the seemingly impossible combination of strong power and torque (168bhp at 5500rpm and 184lb ft at 2500 rpm), lively performance (135mph and 7.8 sec, 0-62 mph) and extremely frugal Euro 5 emissions standards (a CO2 output of just 134 gm/km and combined fuel consumption of 48 mpg).

The engine is exceptionally smooth and quiet at low revs, but its sound swells into much more of a pleasant, Alfa-style rasp when you start to use the power. It’s silky right up to 6500, though there’s a slight kick at 6300 (when an upshift light appears between the dials) to remind you that it won’t rev forever. Most impressive is the way this car keeps pulling at about 80mph; hard to believe you get close to 500 miles from your 60 litre fuel tank.

The Giulietta is a great car to drive, balanced and accurate, but reasonably supple with it. The steering is sweetly weighted and loads gently as cornering speeds rise, but is so high geared (2.2 turns lock to lock) that you never need to alter your hands from ten-to-two, not even for hairpins. The car has class-leading grip, plus neatness and poise in corners and will throttle-steer neatly when driven hard. Body roll is present in modest quantities, but the side support of the comfortable seats negates it completely.

Should I buy one?

Yes-ish. Alfa Romeo ownership once carried a good deal of baggage. Reliability and customer service were not always strong suits. But the company has been overhauling its dealerships and procedures, and new generation owners say it’s working.

All Giulietta models, including the Cloverleaf, will be in showrooms by the summer. Alfa won’t yet quote prices except that they’ll start around £17,000 (for the 120hp Turismo petrol) and will represent good value against the opposition. Our estimate for the test car is £21-£22k. A decently-kitted Cloverleaf should cost around £25-£26k - to which you should happily add around £1000 when a twin-clutch, six-speed paddle-shift gearbox comes on song in a year’s time.

Meanwhile, Alfa seems to be moving back to its best. The Mito showed that it can do styling and marketing. The Giulietta is a much more thorough, ground-up effort at making a car owners will love to drive. And it shows.

Secondo Car, invece, "la Giulietta è la prima Alfa da molti anni a questa parte che è più appagante da guidare che non da osservare".

Alfa Romeo is launching the new 2010 Giulietta to replace its 147 in the heartland mid-sized hatch. So the new Alfa Giulietta faces up to some pretty competent machinery, such as the VW Golf, Ford Focus and Vauxhall Astra.

What’s going on? I thought Alfas were meant to look great and be terrible to drive. Let’s hope this one drives better than it looks...

We assume you’re talking about the Giulietta's less than beautiful face on this new C-segment fighter. Granted, it’s bland and formless after the chiselled muscularity of the old 147, but we’ve got modern pedestrian crash legislation to thank for that. The Giulietta's snout is a grower anyway and the rest of the shape makes up for it. The chunky hind quarters mean you need to move up from the basic 16in rims but the rear three-quarter view is swoopingly fantastic to these eyes.

The new 2010 Giulietta looks much bigger than the old 147

It is, but that’s because Alfa has replaced the 147 with two cars: the smaller three-door Mito and the five-door-only Giulietta.

The big hatch is fractionally bigger than a Golf with a generous 350-litre boot and a back seat that doesn’t quite offer best in class accommodation (the squab is too low and kneeroom only average) but is at least competitive.

So what’s underneath the new Giulietta? A Fiat Bravo chassis? Hardly going to battle for top honours with that arsenal!

That’s why Alfa left it in the parts bin, instead developing an all-new lightweight steel platform that will underpin the next wave of Alfa Romeos – plus the next Fiat Bravo. Using high-strength steel means the finished car weighs 1365kg, little more than the smaller 147 and much less than Vauxhall’s porky Astra. It bodes well...

But is the Giulietta any good?

Oh yes. For a start the Giullietta rides with a suppleness that’s been sorely lacking in recent Alfas, even on our optioned-out test car with its sportier dampers and 17in wheels. It steers crisply too thanks to a new fully electric twin pinion steering rack whose motor is mounted away from the steering column to minimise artificial sensations through the rim.

With just 2.2 turns between the stops it’s fast but never nervous around the straight ahead and with a realistic build-up of weight as the cornering speeds rise. And they really can rise: the Q2 electronic differential standard on every single model provides a staggering amount of traction, even on rain-drenched tarmac and the body control on our sport-equipped car was good.

Sounds like the new Alfa Giulietta deserves a decent engine to make the most of it. What’s under the bonnet?

There are five engines at launch, all turbocharged and featuring direct injection. The bottom rung is a 1.4-litre with 118bhp that does 62mph in less than 10sec and achieves 44mpg. But add Fiat’s brilliant Multiair hydraulically operated valvetrain system and power climbs to 168bhp, the 0-62mph sprint drops to 7.8sec, fuel consumption improves by 5mpg and CO2 falls by 15g/km. This is an impressive motor but it’s been tuned to work hard in the mid range and doesn’t take kindly to you trying to introduce needle to red zone.

If you need more speed there’s the 232bhp 1750 TB, a Golf GTI rival that’s good for 62mph in 6.8sec and 150mph flat out. Or if 50mpg isn’t good enough there are a couple of diesels: a 104bhp 1.6 or 168bhp 2.0 JTDM common-rail diesels, Alfa claiming that the gap between the two isn’t as great as the numbers suggest. All are powered by a six-speed manual gearbox but there’s a dual-clutch option for most engines too. And every unit bar the 1750 gets start-stop as standard.

Bit flaky inside though I’ll bet!

Have you driven an Alfa recently? I’m guessing not because while they’re often disappointing to drive, there are rarely letdowns when it comes to fit and finish these days. Perhaps the Giulietta isn’t quite up there with the Golf, but it’s not far off. There’s chunky soft-touch material on the dash top and doors; clear, hooded dials; and rubberised toggle switches instead of boring old pushbuttons. This is a place in which you’d be happy to spend a lot of time.

Gripes? The metal-look but really plastic gearknob feels cheap, uncomfortable and slippery; there’s not enough space in the cabin to stash mobile phones wallets and MP3 players; the front seats need more lateral support and the back seats, while competitive on space, are short on under-thigh support. But the front seat comfort, the range of driving positions available and the boot are a match for the Volkswagen’s.

It leaves the Golf behind for kit too. Climate control, six airbags, the Q2 diff and the DNA selector are standard across the range which starts at around £17k with the brilliant Multiair driven here costing more like £19k.

Verdict

No more excuses? None needed. The Giulietta is the first Alfa Romeo in a long time that actually drives better than it looks. Of course being an Alfa it’s beaten in some areas by less interesting rivals.

But the Giulietta is fun to drive, stylish and cleverly engineered – exactly the car Alfa needs. And if the success of the far less accomplished Mito is anything to go by, it’s going to be a smash. Place a bet for this to become the European Car of the Year 2011.
