Alfa Romeo Giulietta
Join the Alfa Romeo family
The Alfa Romeo Giulietta is the family-sized entry-level model into this sporting, storied brand. The five-door hatchback is a tidy shape and is offered in some rich, bold colours. Even the model variant names sound evocative: Super, Speciale, Veloce. Each is well equipped: every Giulietta has climate control, alarm, leather steering wheel and rear parking sensors. The engine range is simple too, with a 120hp 1.4-litre turbo petrol, 120hp 1.6-litre diesel and, for the top-spec car, a 2.0-litre 170hp diesel.
For a car from a sporting brand, the Giulietta is pleasingly practical. Rear legroom is OK, there’s a practical 350-litre boot and the rear seats are split 60:40. You even get standard floor mats. The racy-looking interior, with its white-faced dials and leather steering wheel, is backed up by a reasonably tight drive. The dynamic Giulietta is set up to be sharp and the charismatic petrol engine serves up decent performance without proving too heavy on the fuel.
