The Alfa Romeo Giulia appeals to driving enthusiasts with its fun-to-drive chassis, sonorous powertrain, and drop-dead gorgeous styling. It’s designed to take on sports sedans such as the BMW 3-series, the Genesis G70, and the Mercedes-Benz C-class, and that hot-blooded Italian flair easily sets it apart from that more mundane crowd. A 280-hp turbocharged four-cylinder delivers plentiful power and the Giulia’s sharp handling will meet even the most aggressive driver’s expectations. While its interior design is less inspired than its boisterous exterior, the Giulia still offers an upscale experience complete with plentiful amenities and a driver-focused layout. Those looking for a more extreme sports sedan should instead consider the high-performance Quadrifoglio variant, which outperforms bigger names, such as the M3, S4, and C63 AMG.
Among its turbocharged four-cylinder rivals, the Giulia has competitive fuel-efficiency numbers from the EPA, just shy of class leading. Rear-wheel drive models are rated at 24 mpg city and 33 mpg highway. All-wheel-drive models see a slight deficit at 23 mpg city and 31 mpg highway, but that’s common in this class.
