TESTED 29.6.23, MONTLHERY, FRANCE ON SALE NOW
The Alfa Romeo Giulia Quadrifoglio has met with glowing praise since its 2016 launch. The agility and purity of its rear-driven handling, its fluency and compactness on the road, and the idiosyncratic fierceness of its Ferrari-derived V6 all won it instant recognition.
Now, in a rare move in today's performance car market, Alfa has sought to make the car better by making it simpler. The car gets the same mid-life tweaks as the regular Giulia - new headlights, a new 'Trilobo' radiator grille, new digital instruments and updated infotainment. But specific to the Quadrifoglio is a hike in peak power to 514bhp and a recalibration of the suspension and driveline specification intended to give the car what Alfa performance engineering lead Domenico Bagnasco calls a "mini-GTA feel".
