De nieuwe Alfa Romeo Giulia

[alfaqv75]

Dat lijstje lijkt me niet compleet. Zo was de 599XX de eerste die onder de 7 min ging dacht ik, en die vind ik niet terug.

Oh ja: http://www.autoblog.com/2016/06/29/pors ... ng-record/

dat komt omdat de 599XX niet straat legaal is

[Blackie]

Mmm, wist niet dat die SR8LM wel stret legal was. Maar dat doet niets af aan het feit dat er blijkbaar wel al een Panamera MY2017 het rondje afgehaspeld heeft in 7'38". En een QV in 7'32"...

7minuten whatever, ze mogen er altijd een op mijn oprit komen zetten.

Persbericht van Alfa Romeo:

Alfa Romeo returns to the Paris International Motor Show with a prestigious stand worthy of a premium brand which symbolises Italian excellence. The spotlight will shine on Giulia, the most authentic expression of the Alfa Romeo spirit, successfully combining all the elements which have made it one of the most desirable automotive brands: distinctive Italian design, high-performance engines, perfect weight distribution, unique technical solutions and supreme weight-to-power ratio.



Visitors to the world preview at the Paris International Motor Show will have the chance to discover the new Giulia Veloce, which features exclusive engine versions, style and contents. The Giulia Veloce comes with two new engine versions: the 280 HP 2.0-litre Turbo petrol and the 210 HP 2.2-litre Diesel, both with 8-speed automatic transmission and the unprecedented Q4 all-wheel drive.
It will be possible to order the 210 HP 2.2-litre Diesel version of the Giulia Veloce starting from the first day of the Paris Motorshow, September 29th. For more details about prices, visit the local press site.



In Paris, the Alfa Romeo Giulia will be unveiled in five different guises: two new Veloce incarnations, two Super versions and a captivating Quadrifoglio. Alongside these creations, the public can also view the New Giulietta Veloce and the New Mito Veloce, both featuring a pronounced family feeling with the Giulia, as well as the Coupé and Spider versions of the Alfa Romeo 4C, the brand's modern icon. All these cars are unique in their design and technology, and they were created to thrill on the road and on the track. For over a century, Alfa Romeo cars have been dedicated to those who demand that their cars transcend the concept of a 'useful means of transport' and become instead a 'source of deep excitement'.



Alfa Romeo Giulia Veloce

"Veloce" is a glorious name that is evocative of the Alfa Romeo tradition, established in 1956 with the Giulietta model and ever since illuminating the brand's outstandingly sporting and original versions. Today, the name Veloce glorifies another Giulia, to satisfy the needs of customers yearning for contents packed with personality. The new model will progressively be sold across all markets in the EMEA area with prices that will vary from one country to the next. For more details, visit the local press site.



The Parisian show will showcase two new Giulia Veloce variants, both with 8-speed automatic transmission and four-wheel drive: the first model sees the début of the as yet unseen Blue Misano livery and is fitted with the new 280 HP 2.0-litre Turbo petrol engine, while the second Giulia Veloce, displaying an alluring Silverstone grey body, is fitted with the new 210 HP 2.2-litre Diesel engine.



Distinctive style and exclusive equipment

The exterior of the new Giulia Veloce stands out both for its refined styling features, such as the specific bumpers and glossy black door trim, as well as for various sports contents such as the special rear extractor which incorporates a double exhaust pipe and the optional 5-hole 19" alloy wheel rims. The same sporty feel reigns inside, where new black leather Sport seats dominate, plus a sports steering wheel with an original grip, aluminium inserts on the dashboard, central tunnel, door panels and Xenon headlights.



This distinctive interior and exterior style houses a wealth of standard equipment, including dual-zone climate control, the Alfa DNA system and 6.5" Connect infotainment system, as well as the new efficient active safety systems such as Forward Collision Warning (FCW) with Autonomous Emergency Brake (AEB) and pedestrian recognition, the Integrated Brake System (IBS), Lane Departure Warning (LDW) and cruise control with speed limiter.



Two new engine versions

The Giulia Veloce heralds the début of the new 2-litre petrol engine - a 4-cylinder engine made entirely of aluminium - which generates 280 horsepower at 5,250 rpm and a maximum torque of 400Nm at 2,250 rpm. In addition to the MultiAir electro-hydraulic valve activation system, the particular features of this engine include the "2-in-1" " turbocharger system and direct injection with a 200-bar high pressure system which combine to deliver a particularly quick response to accelerator commands at all speeds while permitting highly efficient consumption levels.



Alternatively, the Giulia Veloce can be fitted with the new 2.2-litre Diesel engine which develops a maximum power of 210 HP at 3,500 rpm and a maximum torque of 470 Nm at 1,750 rpm. A special note: the 2.2-litre turbo diesel engine on the Giulia is the first diesel engine in Alfa Romeo history to have been built entirely in aluminium. With four cylinders in line, this engine stands out for its latest-generation injection system with MultiJet II technology and Injection Rate Shaping (IRS), along with operating pressures of 2,000 bar. The electrically-operated variable geometry turbocharger offers state-of-the-art mechanics and minimises response times while also guaranteeing benefits in terms of efficiency. The most sophisticated driving satisfaction and comfort levels are also guaranteed by the use of a balancing countershaft.



Both the new Giulia Veloce models come with 8-speed automatic transmission and are powered by engines made in Italy in the plants in Termoli (petrol) and Pratola Serra (diesel), in areas dedicated exclusively to Alfa Romeo engines, using state-of-the-art processes and methods which place them at the top of their categories for performance and efficiency.



What's more, the innovative "AE" - Advanced Efficiency - version will be available at the beginning of 2017. Distinguished by a specific badge on the tailgate, this version - which is available on the Giulia and Giulia Super trim levels, is based on the 180 HP 2.2-litre Diesel engine with 8-speed automatic transmission.
The Advanced Efficiency variant achieves extraordinary results in terms of fuel consumption and emission levels: 4.2 l/100 km and just 99 g/km of CO2 in the combined cycle.
These results are obtained thanks to specific technical solutions, through the implementation of a low-pressure EGR valve that improves engine efficiency, an air-water intercooler, a secondary engine cooling circuit in addition to the primary circuit, and specific gearbox ratios. On top of this, thanks to a reduction of approximately 5 millimetres in the height of the car body and to exclusive, specifically-designed alloy wheel rims, the CX has been reduced to 0.23 for improved aerodynamic efficiency. Last but by no means least, the Giulia "AE" Advanced Efficiency is fitted with specific 205/60 R16 tyres for reduced rolling resistance.
The effects of these innovations can be seen in the overall performance of the engine, starting at low revs, with prejudice to its outstanding performance levels: a top speed of 230 km/h and 7.2" to accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h.



Four-wheel drive with Q4 technology

At its world preview, the new Giulia Veloce offers the début of the innovative all-wheel drive system with Q4 technology, designed to handle vehicle traction in real time, and to guarantee outstanding levels of performance, efficiency and safety.



The architecture of the Q4 system fitted on the Giulia Veloce includes an active transfer case and a front differential designed to accommodate the specific technical requirements of Alfa Romeo, in order to handle a high torque extremely promptly with a particularly compact and light-weight design (the increase in weight is just around 60 kg). The transfer case uses advanced active clutch technology that provides extremely dynamic driving while at the same time guaranteeing reduced fuel consumption. Speedy response and accurate torque distribution are guaranteed by the Next-Gen integrated actuator, depending on the drive mode selected on Alfa DNA.



In particular, the Q4 system continuously monitors multiple parameters to guarantee optimum torque distribution between the two axles depending on how the car is used and on the available road surface grip. This technology is capable of foreseeing loss in wheel adherence, relying on the information gathered by the lateral and longitudinal acceleration sensors, and by steering wheel angle and vehicle yaw speed sensors. Under normal conditions, the Giulia Veloce with Q4 system behaves like a rear-drive vehicle: 100% of torque is distributed to the rear axle. As it reaches the wheel adherence limit, the system transfers up to 60% of the drive torque to the front axle in real time, thanks to a dedicated transfer case. To ensure maximum speed of response in re-distributing torque, the system exploits a high mechanical over slippage (up to 2.5%) between the two axles, which translates into segment-beating vehicle control in terms of traction and directional stability on bends.



The Q4 system on the new Giulia Veloce therefore provides all the benefits of all-wheel drive - in terms of stability, traction and safety - while also guaranteeing reduced fuel consumption, extra responsiveness and all the driving satisfaction of a car with rear-wheel drive.



All the strengths of the Giulia model

The new Giulia Veloce confirms all the particular features of the model which has launched the come-back of the Italian brand to this major segment. First of all, a distinctly Italian design that is expressed through a sense of proportion and simplicity plus quality surfaces framing the driver and placing him boldly centre stage. In addition, the choice of rear-wheel drive - and now also the Q4 all-wheel drive system - is more than a simple tribute to the most authentic roots of the Alfa Romeo legend: it is also a technical solution which delivers high performance, deep pleasures and supreme driving sensations.



Further particularities of the Giulia include the outstanding weight distribution across the two axles, the sophisticated suspension (Alfa Rome patent) and the most direct steering in its segment. In addition, the Alfa Romeo Giulia combines extraordinary engine performance with ample use of ultralight materials, like carbon fibre, aluminium, aluminium composite and plastic, in order to obtain the best weight-to-power ratio (less than 3 in the Quadrifoglio version).



In keeping with Alfa Romeo traditions, the new Giulia offers unique technical solutions that make it the benchmark for its segment. The more sophisticated features include the Integrated Brake System (IBS) for considerably reducing braking distance, and active suspension for exceptional comfort. Exclusive to the Quadrifoglio version, the Torque Vectoring technology affords outstanding torque distribution between the two wheels on the rear axle, and the Active Aero Splitter actively controls downforce at high speed.



Not to be forgotten, the Alfa Romeo Giulia has recently earned five prestigious Euro NCAP stars, scoring 98% in adult occupant protection. This is the highest score ever achieved by a car despite the more severe evaluation system introduced in 2015. This outstanding result was achieved by implementing two key elements: firstly, the adoption of a wide range of innovative safety systems, and secondly, the efficiency of a bodyshell that is light and rigid in equal measure, and makes extensive use of ultra-lightweight materials such as carbon-fibre, aluminium and aluminium composite.



The Paris show will be exhibiting two Giulia Super models with a 180 HP 2.2-litre Diesel engine and a 200 HP 2.0-litre Turbo petrol engine, both with 8-speed automatic transmission and rear-wheel drive. These models have been embellished with the Sport Pack (including sports steering wheel with specific grip, aluminium inserts on the dashboard, central tunnel and door panels, as well as Xenon headlights) and Luxury Pack which includes: full grain leather seats (available in four colours: black, beige, tobacco and red), leather upholstered dashboard and door panels, heated front seats electrically adjustable to eight settings, heated steering wheel, real wood (oak or walnut) inserts on the dashboard, central tunnel and door panels, plus chrome-plated exterior window frames and electrically folding door mirrors. This car also offers refined Mopar accessories in carbon: the wing mirror housing, the front grille and the gearknob.



The stand exhibit is completed by a Competition Red Giulia Quadrifoglio, fitted with a 510 HP 2.9-litre V6 Biturbo petrol engine and presented in the sports configuration featuring 5-hole ultra light-weight 19" wheel rims, carbon ceramic brake system and Sparco seats with carbon structural shell.



Giulietta and Mito

The spotlights at the show will also be on the New Giulietta and the New Mito, two restyled models which present a notable family feeling with Giulia. The car frontals feature a new grille and the legendary trefoil nose, arguably one of the most famous and recognisable symbols in the world of motoring. The lettering of the names "Giulietta" and "Mito" also echo that of "Giulia", with both cars sporting the refreshed logo of the Alfa Romeo brand.



The ranges of the two models have been optimised so that customers can simply and quickly pick the version most suited to their tastes and needs and then personalise it with optional items and accessories. Outstanding features of the New Giulietta include a bolder sport characterisation, the renewed 120 HP 1.6-litre JTDm turbo diesel engine, with the innovative Alfa TCT automatic transmission and the superb UconnectTM LIVE services, thanks to which it is possible to remain connected at all times through a smartphone.



The Alfa Romeo stand in Paris showcases the Giulietta Veloce with the exclusive 240 HP 1750 Turbo Petrol engine and TCT automatic transmission. Distinguished by an Etna Black metallic livery, this high-performance version stands out, on the exterior, for its new sports bumpers with red inserts, the glossy anthracite finishes, the glass roof, the enhanced Brembo braking system with red callipers, the 5-hole 18" alloy wheel rims with burnished finish and the expanded double exhaust pipe. The same sporty mood reigns in the interior, enhanced by smart new seats in leather and Alcantara with built-in headrest, contrasting red stitching and a racy contoured leather steering wheel.



What's more, the Giulietta Veloce on show features exclusive Mopar accessories such as carbon spoiler and door mirror caps, specific skirts with Alfa red insert, oversized rear exhausts, LED courtesy lights on the front doors with Alfa Romeo logo projection and Alfa red "Veloce" badge.



The New Mito will be also be displayed in the Alfa Romeo stand, with a host of restyled features, while maintaining its position as a small sportscar capable of seducing customers through its Italian style, technical excellence and sublime driving pleasures. The Paris International Motor Show will also feature the sportier version in the range - the 170 HP Veloce 1.4-litre MultiAir Turbo petrol version with TCT automatic transmission - featuring new sports seats with red leather upholstery and new 18" alloy wheel rims.



The Mito Veloce on show in Paris has also been embellished by the Mopar accessories in its new Sport kit: from the innovative Alfa red finish on the front bumper, to the new Alfa red "Veloce" badge and the burnished diamond-effect 18" alloy wheel rims.



4C Coupé and 4C Spider

Also in the limelight will be the captivating Alfa Romeo 4C, in Coupé and Spider versions, a modern brand icon representing the racing soul written into to the Alfa Romeo DNA: optimum performance and excellent engineering designed for ultimate pleasure and breathtaking style.



Both cars are powered by the potent turbocharged all-aluminium direct injection engine with 1,750 cm3 with intercooler and dual continuous variable valve timing guaranteeing performance levels comparable to those of a supercar: top speed of 258 km/h (257 km/h for the 4C Spider), acceleration from 0 to 100 km/h in 4.5 seconds, 1.1 g lateral acceleration and 1.25 g maximum braking deceleration.
The supercar spirit also asserts itself in the choice of ultralight materials: carbon fibre for the shell, aluminium for the front and rear chassis framework and SMC (low density compound) for the bodywork.



The Parisian show will also feature a 4C Spider in three-coat Competition Red, featuring a carbon fibre roll-bar cover as well as the new titanium central dual-mode exhaust system by Akrapovič. In addition, to add a splash of style and enhance the car's lightness and performance levels, this model boasts burnished finish spoked wheel rims (18" at the front and 19" at the rear), as well as carbon fibre exterior components such as the air intake on the side and the door mirrors. Red brake callipers, racy seats and a black leather dashboard with carbon fibre trim round off the style statement of the convertible on show in Paris.



The stand will also proudly present the award-winning 4C Coupé with three-coat metallic Stromboli Grey livery and carbon fibre on the roof and other elements - such as the air intakes on the side and front bumper, door mirrors and rear spoiler - in addition to red brake callipers, racing exhaust system and 5-hole wheel rims (18" at the front and 19" at the rear) with burnished finish. Inside, special red leather sports seats go strikingly well with the leather dashboard and carbon fibre details.



Both cars on show in Paris boast the sophisticated "Alpine premium sound system" that provides an all-embracing musical experience.

Jij was me te snel af met je persbericht Sergio!

Denk dat mijn hopelijk toekomstige auto gepresenteerd gaat worden.
Leuk voor de line up een 155 q4 en een Giulia q4 .

[Blackie]

De ECO versie een Cx van 0.23... WTF

[Hylke]

Alleen het getal zegt niet zoveel, maar het zal marketingtechnisch vast wel uit te melken zijn.

[Veloce]

Dinsdag was ik in Amersfoort en kwam ik een trailer met 3 Giulia Quadrifoglio's tegen. Gisteren was ik bij Wim Prins en was die trailer duidelijk daar langs geweest, daar waren er 2 afgeleverd welke de eerste exemplaren waren die aan de klanten werden uitgeleverd. Ik moet zeggen dat ik zo'n Q eerst nogal over-the-top vond (eigenlijk nog steeds), maar het is wel echt een dik en gespierd apparaat.
Ze hebben hem ook nog even gestart en ook dat is helemaal goedgekeurd, klinkt in het echt toch wel véél beter dan op YouTube.

[kees artc6]

De eerste QV staat al op kenteken, ik mocht er vandaag in rijden. Wat een vreselijk bruut beest!

[Alfistzmeer]

De eerste QV staat al op kenteken, ik mocht er vandaag in rijden. Wat een vreselijk bruut beest!

lucky you!

[Peternijmegen]

Wie heeft er eentje besteld en wat voor een levertijd hebben ze afgegeven?

Gr. Peter

[george.b]

De eerste QV staat al op kenteken, ik mocht er vandaag in rijden. Wat een vreselijk bruut beest!

Wow, super dat je er in mocht rijden!

[HAAK28]

En insturen met 280 op de klok en de rechtervoet naar beneden. Best wel hardcore. Hoe nonchalant-Italiaans wil je het hebben: helm en t-shirt.

Ik zeg deathwish. Niet verantwoord zonder rolkooi en zonder beschermende kleding, maar dat zijn my 2 cents...

[Dirk-33]

Een recordronde rijden op de 'ring is sowieso een deathwish.

[walfa]

Wie heeft er eentje besteld en wat voor een levertijd hebben ze afgegeven?

Op 6 juni is mijn 150 pk business super (diesel) besteld, en die is gisteren bij de dealer afgeleverd. Week 39 (deze week) was opgegeven als afleverweek. Het is nu ff afwachten wanneer ik 'm kan ophalen. Ruim 4 maanden dus, waar dan ook de Italiaanse vakantie periode tussen zit.

[Veloce]

Die Giulia Veloce is toch wel érg gaaf hoor, eigenlijk nog wel beter dan de Quadrifoglio. Niet die overdreven grote spoilers, luchthappers en uitlaten. Gewoon een iets andere achterkant, stukje omlaag en klein voorspoilertje. Precies genoeg.
De nieuwe kleur heet Blu Misano en is specifiek voor die uitvoering, en 't werd tijd dat er eens wat meer kleur in het gamma komt. Want behalve rood en donkerblauw krijg je alleen maar varianten op zwart, wit en grijs. Het automaatje van de Veloce automaatje zou ik niet zo'n problemen mee hebben, 4WD zou dan weer níet zo snel mijn keuze zijn. Maar gisteren zijn wat meer details naar buiten gekomen, de sprint naar 100 duurt maar 5,2 seconden. (al las ik ergens anders weer 4,8s) Dat is toch best serieus rap voor zo'n grote sedan met "maar" een tweelitertje en minder dan 300pk. Zal ongetwijfeld door de Q4 en automaat komen, maar de Giulia is hoe ik begrijp ook bovengemiddeld licht.
Prijs is wel pittig, €52K (benzina) en €53,5K (diesel 210pk)... Voor mij is de keuze makkelijk tussen deze auto en een Duits product, hopelijk denken meer mensen er zo over.

(alleen die wielen van die blauwe zijn wel héél lelijk)
