The Alfa Romeo Giulia has set the tone for all future models from the Italian company, and it has shown us that it has set its sights North towards Munich and Stuttgart. The Giulia is Alfa Romeo going straight after BMW's M3, Audi A4, and Mercedes-AMG C63, with a clear intent of dethroning M3's long reign as the superior model in this category, and it not only goes for the hot Giulia Quadrifoglio but all Giulia models. The Alfa Romeo Giulia Engine The Giulia's engine, a 2.9L Twin-turbo V6 is "inspired by Ferrari expertise and technologies," and comes from the engine family of the F154. BMW's 493bhp twin-turbo 3.0, which is not on par with the 503bhp output by this direct-injection engine. It is everything one could hope from Ferrari-inspired machinery, potent, responsive, noisy, and sharp. When it comes to power, the Giulia manages to go toe to toe with the C63's 4-litre twin-turbo hot-V V8. While the M3 would probably outperform the Giulia in terms of agility, response, and grip, the Alfa has a fantastic flow going for it. It has a natural balance given by weight distribution that is less aggressive, not as tightly controlled as its German counterpart. When it comes to steering, the sharp steering and supple suspension combine positively together when you turn the wheel. The Giulia is less intimidating than the BMW M3; it moves much more gracefully. Traction is also reliable and, even better, predictable. Alfa Romeo Giulia Engine (Atlas News) The Interior All Giulia models come with a selector for the drive mode that has three settings: Dynamic, Natural, and Advanced Efficiency (which forms the clever acronym DNA). Each of these settings alters the car's steering feel, engine management, and transmission. The new Pirelli P Zeros tires are very responsive and have an excellent grip. The M3 and the Audi A4 indeed have better-quality materials in their cabins, while the Giulia has a not as well built interior if you make a direct comparison. The Mercedes-AMG C63 S also does feel more high-end than the Giulia. The pieces and plastics don't fit against each other as seamlessly as they do in its competitors. Still, this was a predictable problem area. All in all, the design work on the inside is marvelous. It is simple, clean, and uncomplicated. The interior also has a more than comfortable rear space and boot size. It carries more of a sporting atmosphere than any of its German counterparts, and it does not let you down. You will want to take advantage of the option of having the Sparco bucket seats, which are carbon fiber-backed. They look excellent, and they are also one of the most supportive and comfortable seats in the market today. Alfa Romeo Giulia Ti Lusso Interior (Alfa Romeo) The Giulia Is Overall Excellence The Alfa Romeo Giulia is an excellent luxury sedan, and it is one of the most athletic cars in this class. The Giulia has agile handling, supportive front seats, and two compelling engine options. If you are looking for a small luxury car that feels like a sports car and is fun-to-drive, the Alfa Romeo Giulia is an excellent option in this category.

The Alfa Romeo Giulia Infotainment system is an incredible modern upgrade compared to the previous system. The changes Alfa Romeo has put out in a year is incredible. This is truly one of the best Alfa Romeo Giulia infotainment systems yet. Upgraded Display Before even taking a look at the new features of the infotainment system, it is essential to note its upgraded design. In one update, Alfa Romeo went from a list view infotainment system with just a knob to navigate to a fully 8.8-inch touchscreen system with graphics and widgets. The new infotainment system essentially allows the owner to create a home page where each function becomes an app. They can scroll through the apps and drag-and-drop them as they wish. They can also switch the display between a 3- or 5-widget view. As we are all familiar with touchscreens and apps nowadays, the new infotainment navigation system is much more user friendly. The "Apps" 1 by 1 You can scroll between radio (FM/AM) and media (Bluetooth connectivity) From the home screen, you can view the navigation widget and make it bigger, so it takes up the space of two apps or even makes it full screen. There is also a compass feature. Scroll up through the driver assistance widget for more settings. From here, you can adjust the safety settings for the Giulia, such as blind-spot assist, lane-keeping assist, driver attention assist, and many more. There is also a climate control app, which can be accessed from the lower left- and right-hand corners of the touchscreen through the "Lo" button. Of course, this on-screen feature is added to the knobs that come standard with all cars. Whether from the screen or with the knobs, the Giulia offers individual climate control (per seat). There is also the option of added heated seats, though Alfa Romeo has not introduced ventilated seats yet. The performance app features four main categories to check in on the Giulia: performance content, technical gauges, consumption history, and efficient drive. This app assists you with your driving history to keep an eye on your oil, boost, and torque displays as you drive. The vehicle information app informs about any scheduled maintenance based on the information of the Giulia's oil and tires. There is also a check oil feature, where you will find the DNA system (dynamic, natural, and advanced driving modes). The settings app is pretty standard but worth a flip through the options to be familiar with when they are necessary. The connected service's app has three options: Assist call, SOS call, and Wi-Fi Hotspot. This app is for advanced onboard connectivity and to boost safety. The Assist call and SOS call services call the assist call center and emergency services in case of an emergency. The SOS call service will even send your location. The Wi-Fi Hotspot service is a paid service that allows Wi-Fi to be shared on up to 8 onboard devices.

Luxury car manufacturer Alfa Romeo has made plenty of small tech upgrades for the 2020 Alfa Romeo Giulia that amount to a big difference when it comes to comfort and safety. The majority of the Alfa Romeo Giulia tech upgrades can be found inside the car and can be divided into three categories: driver assistance, infotainment, and mechanics. Driver Assistance The driver assistance features that the Alfa Romeo Giulia Technology introduces are incredible for accident avoidance. The traffic jam and highway assist feature keeps the Giulia in the center lane and uses the positions of other cars as a reference when the lane lines are unclear. The driver can set the speed as well as its desired distance from the car in front of it. This feature is an ample forward collision warning. The active blind spot assist feature works with radar sensors on each side of the rear bumper. It allows the driver to change lanes safely once the direction indicator is enabled. The lane-keeping assist also keeps the Giulia in the lane with the help of a video camera detecting lane markings. The traffic sign recognition feature recognizes road signs and helps the driver respect speed limits. Finally, the driver's attention assist tracks the driver's state of alertness by monitoring the time-driven and the speed and movements of the vehicle. The attention assist will suggest the driver take a break when it registers the driver has been driving too long or that they are making too many sudden movements (not driving the vehicle straight, moving from left to right and back, and the like). These driver assistance features of the Alfa Romeo Giulia Tech provide the driver with an added set of accident protection. Infotainment The Alfa Romeo Giulia now comes standard with an 8.8-in infotainment touchscreen display, though it keeps the infotainment knob for times when it is safer to use, such as for scrolling while driving. The infotainment system has a home screen with three tiles that can be configured based on preference. A faster processor and user interface are also new technologies. The graphics have also been upgraded and are more visually pleasing and modern. Mechanics The Giulia's "DNA" drive mode selector offers three driving modes: dynamic, natural, and advanced. Dynamic mode offers a sportier ride, while the advanced is a more comfortable ride. This knob works with another one of Alfa Romeo Giulia's new standard tech upgrades, the suspension. This upgrade keeps the wheels perfectly perpendicular to the road at all times, and adjusts the car's responses to the road according to the drive mode from "DNA." The Giulia also boasts even weight distribution and all-wheel drive technologies, bringing together safety and performance. Finally, the Giulia also comes standard with a built-in aero splitter to improve airflow underneath the car for a smoother ride. While all these smalls upgrades are not unique in and of themselves, brought together in one vehicle, they make for a hell of an upgrade and respond to consumer feedback.
