Alfa Romeo Giulia Quadrifoglio Boasts High Performance and Decorative Detailing

Alfa Romeo's triumphant return to North America is marked by its five-seat Italian performance car which stands out as a bold competitor in the compact luxury sports sedan class. Originally founded on June 24, 1910, as Anonima Lombarda Fabbrica Automobili, the Italian luxury car manufacturer is globally known for its production of high-quality sport vehicles and involvement in high-level competitive car racing.

Adrenaline-Inducing Power

The Ferrari-derived all-aluminum 2.9L twin-turbo V6 engine with 8-speed transmission provides smooth shifting and offers best-in-class 505 horsepower with 443 lb.-ft. of torque which gives it the distinction of becoming the most powerful production Alfa Romeo engine ever developed. Designed with speed enthusiasts in mind, the super-quick sports car achieves a top speed of 191 mph and a class-leading acceleration time of 0-60 mph in a mere 3.8 seconds. Quadrifoglio also set a Nurburgring record with a lap time of 7:32 which is the fastest ever accomplished by a four-door production sedan.

Status Symbols

The brand's distinctive logo consists of two particular elements associated with its birthplace: a red cross signifying the city of Milan, and a crowned viper which is an emblem of the 14th century ruling House of Visconti. Additionally, the green four-leaf clover symbol seen on the Quadrifoglio symbolizes a former discontentment with a series of second-place finishes and was added with the hopes of initiating good luck. Ever since the first-place win that proceeded, the badge can now be seen on all Quadrifoglio vehicles and Formula 1 cars.

Steady Steering

The Quadrifoglio's available three-spoke flat-bottom steering wheel is attractive enough on its own; but when the carbon fiber option is added, and it becomes a work of art in and of itself. The race-inspired red engine start button pays homage to the company's competitive heritage, and column-mounted aluminum paddle shifters inspired by Formula 1 cars allow drivers to shift rapidly while keeping both hands on the wheel.

Comfortable Seating

The Quadrifoglio's focus on power and performance doesn't equate to a sacrifice of interior comfort or style. The cabin features fine leather and Alcantara as well as soft-touch plastics and carbon fiber trim to reiterate the racing aesthetic. Although the interior definitely favors front-seat occupants by offering them plenty of space and comfortable well-bolstered sports seats, backseat passengers can expect 40/20/40 folding rear seats with third rear headrest as well as an offering of available heated rear seats.

Tires and Wheels

The Giulia Quadrifoglio comes standard with a sturdy set of responsive performance tires outfitted with 19" Bright Technico wheels, but an available upgrade gets you those same wheels in a dark version or a set of 19" 5-hole wheels in either a dark or bright variety. The carbon ceramic ultra high-performance Brembo brake system is set off by colored brake calipers which come in glossy options of red, yellow, or black showcasing Alfa Romeo script.

Embodying a mechanics of emotion spirit, the luxury sports sedan no doubt delivers seductive style and full-throttle adrenaline for upscale sports car enthusiasts.
