After having completely disappeared from the market at the beginning of the decade, the Alfa Romeo Giulietta could orchestrate its comeback thanks to the Stellantis group.
Future Alfa Romeo Giulietta – The Stellantis group, which is already declining three compacts (308, Astra, DS4) on its EMP2 V3 platform, could attribute the latter to new suitors. While the rumor of a come-back of the Lancia Delta spread, a few months ago, Jean-Philippe Imparato, recently appointed head of Alfa Romeo, hinted to our colleagues atAutomotive News that the project of a new Giulietta could be considered, In the coming years.
An abandoned segment
Here it is already two years since the last generation of Giulietta, third of the name, left the showrooms of the brand after an interminable decade of career spent under artificial respiration, without having known any real restyling. Affected by the strategic wanderings of the late Sergio Marcionne, the Alfa Romeo range is currently the impasse on a compact capable of competing with the Audi A3 and other BMW 1 Seriesa niche that is nevertheless very buoyant commercially.
Priority SUVs
If the near future will see the arrival of the SUV compact Tonale having the heavy task of compete with the Peugeot 3008 and Audi Q3, the management of Alfa Romeo does not hide its intention to compete directly with BMW productions, medium term. At the microphone ofAutomotive NewsJean-Philippe Imparato said that the quest for sales volumes would no longer be prioritized, preferring focus on maximizing profitability by obtaining higher transaction prices, aligning itself with those practiced by the Germanic rival, all over the world. He has also renewed his interest in the North American market, considered crucial for the survival of Biscione.
A DS4 underbody
If the return of the Alfa Romeo Giulietta were to materialize, it would logically take place on the technical basis of the Peugeot 308 and Opel Astrabut more particularly on that of the DS4, premium oriented. This would notably allow it to benefit from a controlled suspension and other technological refinements. Under the hood, the Italian would also appropriate the 180 hp and 225 hp rechargeable hybridizations officiating on this platform. But its sporty character would probably require higher power levels. He would then need pick from the three other derivatives developing 250, 300 and 360 hp. In addition, this fourth generation of Alfa Romeo Giulietta would also be eligible for total electrification, insofar as its hypothetical cousins will convert to it next year.
Prix Alfa Romeo Giulietta
It will take a few more years before a brand new Alfa Romeo Giulia sees the light of day. At best, his return would take place in 2025at an entry-level price exceeding €30,000.
