Alfa Romeo has announced the pricing and specifications for its first fully electric vehicle, the Junior. Combining sporty design, compact size, and Italian flair, the Junior will start at £33,895 (RM203,368) OTR for the base model, the Junior Elettrica.
Powertrain and Performance
The Junior is Alfa Romeo’s debut into the fully electric market, featuring two powertrain options. The base model comes with a 156hp motor, providing a range of up to 402km (WLTP). For those seeking a sportier experience, the Junior Veloce offers a 240hp motor with a range of up to 346 (WLTP). Both versions are equipped with Alfa Romeo’s signature sporting DNA, ensuring dynamic performance and excellent road holding. Charging is efficient, with a 10-80% charge achievable in under 30 minutes using a 100kW rapid charger.
Alfa Romeo memperkenalkan edisi khas “Super Sport” untuk mengucapkan selamat tinggal kepada model Giulia dan Stelvio Quadrifoglio. Dalam hantaran istimewa ini, dalaman kedua-dua model ini menampilkan anyaman karbon merah yang unik. Diberi nama “Super Sport”, model-model prestasi tinggi ini menghormati kemenangan Alfa Romeo di Mille Miglia 1928 dengan 6C 1500 Super Sport. Edisi ini memberi anggukan tradisi dengan logo Quadrifoglio yang menampilkan segi tiga hitam, yang merupakan kali pertama dalam sejarah 101 tahun Alfa Romeo.
Kedua-dua kereta ini didatangkan dengan cat metalik Nero Vulcano, tetapi boleh didapati dalam pilihan Rosso Etna tiga lapisan. Edisi Super Sport juga menawarkan pilihan Bianco Alfa untuk varian sedan. Pembeli sedan sport boleh memilih bumbung gentian karbon, sementara Giulia Quadrifoglio dilengkapi dengan roda 19 inci dan Stelvio menunggang pada aloi 21 inci yang lebih besar. Kedua-dua model ini menonjol dengan kaliper brek hitam dan sistem ekzos Akrapovic yang dilengkapi dengan kemasan gentian karbon. Unsur gentian karbon juga meluas ke cermin sisi dan splitter hadapan Giulia.
Alfa Romeo is bidding farewell to the Giulia and Stelvio Quadrifoglio models with a special edition send off featuring a unique red carbon weave interior. Named the “Super Sport” edition, these limited-run models pay homage to Alfa Romeo’s victory at the 1928 Mille Miglia with the 6C 1500 Super Sport. In a departure from tradition, the iconic Quadrifoglio logo features a black triangle instead of the usual white background for the first time in its 101-year history.
Both cars come adorned in an elegant Nero Vulcano metallic paint, although they are also available in a three-layer Rosso Etna finish. The Giulia and Stelvio Super Sport editions additionally offer the option of Bianco Alfa for the sedan variant. Opting for the sports sedan allows buyers to select a carbon fibre roof, while the Giulia Quadrifoglio is equipped with 19-inch wheels and the Stelvio rides on larger 21-inch alloys. Both models feature black brake calipers and an Akrapovic exhaust system with carbon fiber finishers. Carbon fibre elements extend to the mirrors and the Giulia’s front splitter.
However, the standout feature of these special editions lies within the cabin, where Alfa Romeo has introduced red carbon fibre accents on the dashboard, centre console, and door cards. This unique material creates a striking 3D effect that complements the red stitching on the seats. The headrests reveal the limited production numbers, with 275 examples of the Giulia and 175 units of the Stelvio slated for production globally.
In terms of pricing, the Giulia Super Sport starts at RM412,611 in the US, including destination charges, while the Stelvio Super Sport is priced at RM448,098.
Alfa Romeo telah memperkenalkan SUV terbaharunya, Milano, yang menandakan kereta elektrik pertamanya untuk pengeluaran biasa.
Dinamakan sempena tempat kelahiran jenama itu, Milano ialah crossover bandar yang bertujuan untuk menggabungkan semangat hatchback Giulietta dan Mito Alfa Romeo dengan daya tarikan premium dan dinamik pemanduan yang menarik untuk menarik peminat generasi baharu.
Bos Alfa Romeo, Jean-Philippe Imparato, berkata Milano berhasrat menjadikan jenama itu lebih mudah diakses oleh khalayak yang lebih luas sambil mengekalkan ciri eksklusifnya bersama model seperti 33 Stradale yang sangat eksklusif.
Milano mempunyai reka bentuk tersendiri dengan unsur-unsur yang memberi penghormatan kepada warisan Alfa, termasuk gerbang roda yang berani, bahagian belakang dengan bentuk yang tersendiri dan lampu depan bergaya yang diinspirasikan oleh model terdahulu. Ia lebih kecil sedikit daripada smart #1, berukuran 4170mm panjang, 1780mm lebar dan 1500mm tinggi.
Milano menawarkan dua pilihan rangkaian kuasa: versi petrol hibrid ringan dan versi elektrik sepenuhnya. Hibrid ini menggabungkan enjin petrol dengan motor elektrik kecil untuk gabungan output sebanyak 134bhp. Versi elektrik, dipanggil Milano Elettrica, mempunyai bateri 54kWh dan jarak 410km dengan motor 154bhp.
Alfa Romeo menjanjikan dinamik pemanduan yang sangat baik dengan pengedaran optimum dan pengendalian yang ditala oleh pasukan yang sama di belakang salun super Giulia GTA. Varian Veloce teratas menawarkan motor berkuasa 237bhp, pembezaan gelinciran terhad dan peningkatan untuk pengalaman pemanduan yang lebih sporty.
Di dalam, Milano menampilkan ketukangan Itali, bahan berkualiti tinggi dan kawalan tertumpu kepada pemandu. Terdapat skrin digital 10.25-inci untuk data kenderaan dan tetapan, bersama-sama dengan sistem skrin sentuh untuk interaksi mudah dengan pelbagai ciri.
Untuk menambah sentuhan keanggunan, Milano menawarkan tempat duduk sport Sabelt pilihan dan lubang penghawa dingin berbentuk seperti simbol ikonik quadrifoglio Alfa Romeo.
Milano kini boleh dipesan di Itali dan akan dilancarkan di 28 pasaran dalam tempoh enam bulan akan datang.
Alfa Romeo has unveiled the Milano as its latest addition to the SUV lineup and its first-ever series-production electric car.
Named after the brand’s hometown, the Milano is an urban-focused crossover that aims to capture the essence of the Giulietta and Mito hatchbacks while offering premium appeal and engaging driving dynamics to attract a new generation of Alfisti.
Jean-Philippe Imparato, Alfa Romeo boss, stated that the Milano is designed to transition the brand “from exclusive to inclusive,” emphasising its position alongside the ultra-exclusive 33 Stradale. He noted, “Alfa is the only brand that is able to sell a car at €2 million and €30,000.”
With dimensions of 4170mm length, 1780mm width, and 1500mm height, the Milano incorporates bold new design elements while paying homage to Alfa’s heritage with features like swollen wheel arches, a ‘coda tronca’ bluff rear end, and SZ-inspired headlights. Its distinctive front-end grille features stylised elements from the brand’s logo in electric versions. For reference, the smart #1 measures 4270mm in length, 1636mm in height, and 1822mm in width.
The Milano is available with either electric or mild-hybrid petrol power, sharing a platform with models like the Citroën C4, Fiat 600, Jeep Avenger, and Peugeot 2008. The Milano Ibrida combines a 1.2-litre three-cylinder petrol engine with a 48V starter-generator and a 28bhp electric motor for 134bhp and the option of short-distance EV driving. The Milano Elettrica features a 54kWh battery, offering a range of 410km and a front-mounted 154bhp motor for engaging performance.
Alfa emphasises the Milano’s driving dynamics, boasting optimal mass distribution and best-in-class handling tuned by the same team responsible for the Giulia GTA super-saloon. The top-tier Veloce variant offers the most driver-focused experience with a 237bhp motor, Torsen limited-slip differential, and agile chassis upgrades.
Technological features include LED matrix lights, a virtual assistant, and hands-free boot lid, while premium trims offer massaging seats and ambient lighting.
The same inspiration of pure sportiness can be found inside the car, where the standout features are the Italian attention to every detail, the use of the finest materials and the placement of all the controls within the driver’s reach. The instrument panel and its historical ‘Cannocchiale’ design creates that direct visual connection and persuades you to wrap your hands around the steering wheel, start the engine, and make the best of a unique driving experience.
In the middle of the cluster, the standout feature is a fully digital 10.25-inch TFT screen, to access the car’s data and the settings for the driving technologies. In the middle of the dashboard and oriented towards the driver, a 10.25-inch touchscreen system developed to work with widgets, graphic components designed for intuitive interaction with all the features, which can be customised via quick and easy drag and drop. Every user can create their own homepage, where each of the car’s features is an app in itself.
To further embellish the interior, the air conditioning vents in the shape of a quadrifoglio (four-leaf clover), the symbol par excellence of Alfa Romeo sportiness. To catch the eye and welcome the driver, optional Sabelt sports seats are available featuring an enveloping backrest that combines high mechanical resistance, perfect ergonomics and structural lightness.
The Milano is available for order in Italy and will launch in 28 markets over the next six months.
Peminat-peminat Alfa Romeo di Amerika Utara terasa tawar hati mengenai berita yang baru diumumkan. Syarikat tersebut mengatakan mereka akan menghentikan penjualan model-model Quadrifoglio berprestasi tinggi mereka. Larry Dominique, yang bertanggungjawab di Alfa Romeo untuk Amerika Utara, berkongsi perkara ini di LinkedIn. Dia mengatakan kepada mereka yang ingin membeli Giulia atau Stelvio Quadrifoglio supaya tergesa-gesa sebelum model-model itu hilang untuk selama-lamanya pada bulan Jun.
Dominique juga menyatakan bahawa ini bukanlah akhir bagi Alfa Romeo. Dia memberikan petunjuk bahawa mereka sedang menuju ke arah menggunakan kuasa elektrik untuk kereta mereka. Jika anda ingin membeli Giulia atau Stelvio Quadrifoglio 2024, anda perlu melakukannya sebelum bulan April. Selepas itu, mereka tidak akan membuat lagi model-model Quadrifoglio dengan enjin petrol untuk AS dan Kanada.
It’s a bittersweet moment for Alfa Romeo enthusiasts in North America as the Italian automaker announces the end of sales for its high-performance Quadrifoglio models, scheduled to cease production in June of this year.
Larry Dominique, Alfa Romeo’s senior vice president for North America, shared this news on LinkedIn, advising interested buyers to place their orders soon to acquire a Giulia or Stelvio Quadrifoglio before they’re no longer available in their current form.
Dominique emphasised that this isn’t the end of the story for Alfa Romeo, hinting at the brand’s transition to an electrified future. The final opportunity to order a 2024 Giulia or Stelvio Quadrifoglio will close at the end of April 2024, with the last internal-combustion-powered Quadrifoglio models for the U.S. and Canada exiting the Cassino plant in June 2024.

ErreErre Fuoriserie, a Turin-based coachbuilder, has unveiled a retro-inspired body kit for the Alfa Romeo Giulia, which was initially showcased as a concept in mid-2022. The finalised kit has undergone several revisions and has elicited mixed opinions.
The modifications to the Giulia begin at the front, where the saloon now boasts four circular LED headlights and a silver grille. Alterations have been made to the lower air intakes, and a new bonnet design has garnered widespread appeal. However, the side view and three-quarter profile have sparked controversy.
The front wheel arches have undergone significant flaring, which some consider excessive and lacking refinement. A pronounced shoulder line extends from the front of the bonnet to the tailgate, resulting in an eye-catching, somewhat over-the-top appearance. The doors, rocker panels, and skirts have been reworked, while the rear wheel arches have been squared off. The rear design takes an unconventional turn.
The C-pillars have been modified to accommodate two spoilers extending from the roof. The tailgate has been entirely reimagined, giving rise to a boxy shape, a departure from the original Giulia’s more subtle curves. Notably, the distinctive taillights stand out, and the rear end’s redeeming features may lie in the diffuser and the two central tailpipes.
Inside the vehicle, the interior updates have been executed more tastefully. Brown leather adorns the upper section of the dashboard, door panels, and seat bolsters, complemented by light grey Alcantara in other areas.
Beneath the bonnet, Bilstein suspension enhancements have been incorporated, and the Giulia’s 2.9-litre twin-turbocharged V6 engine now generates 562hp. What sets this model apart is the inclusion of a rare six-speed manual transmission. ErreErre Fuoriserie plans to produce a limited run of just 33 units of this retro Giulia, with pricing details yet to be disclosed.
