This new Giulia is one of the most beautiful sport sedans I have ever seen. She is like a sculpture with perfect proportions. If I had some 85k lying around for the one I'd choose, she'd be mine in a heartbeat.
It's almost like a Ferrari built a sedan. What an amazing car.
It is largely due to Alfa and Ferrari engineers literally working together on the engine/design together
@@vincentvanetti9147 philippe krief from ferrari was project lead in the guila project. He is the guy who was responsible for the ferrari 458!
@@janstaes2172 Philip Krief aka =The Prince as they call him in Italy is responsible for the Giorgio platform used in the Alfa. He also was lead designer for the 458 and LaFerrari platforms.
The engine and drivetrain were done also by Ferrari Skunk work engine designer and head honcho Gianluca Pivetti who know heads the Masserri engine development team today. He has already completed the new V6 ferrari derived engine that is going into the mid engine 2022 Maserati. Sadly this was originally intended for the Alfa 8C which is now cancelled.
Marco Tencone, is the exterior and interior designer hailing from Marelleno.
@@paulj9821 From what I've read around, they all thought they were working on a Ferrari and were not initially told that that this was all going into an Alfa Romeo.
it's absolutely beautiful the gulia
Hats off to Alfa for the mesmerising design!! looks perfect from every angle! kudos!!
What a car... Especially in design and driving experience.
Real working tailpipes in a world of fake exhaust, it is a great touch. The QF is aggressive and passionate as the most of Italian cars in this segment. As the first Alfa sedan that will go on sale in the US, I really wish FCA all the luck, specially after the 6 month delay in the production. My guess is that this version has the credentials to be a good match for AMG/M/S/RS/V sport vehicles. .
Very thoughtful review, Thomas. Excellent job.
Amazing car, simple and elegant
Very good review! Good job Thomas! The car is very beautiful!
thx m8 !
Thomas you're a legend man. You reviewed my dream car, the Alfa Romeo Giulia QV in manual. I'm so happy for your review because now I'm more convinced I should save up for this car. 6 years later. But better late than never. Lol
Thanks my friend
great job as usual thomas
merci!
I like the infotainment display. It blends into the dash really nice.
Great video as usual 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾😀, keep up the great work😀
u really have started to make your videos even better. i liked your reviews before and more now. wish u ll do more distinctive precise reviews. love your channel than any other channel... :D
love to hear that =)
Awesome and beautifully design car, uniquely elegant from any angles. Especially when reviewed none other then the best.....Thanks for another true to goodness review Thomas.
thx!!
You're a great car reviewer.
Take my like!
=)
Great job Thomas.
Relatively short car for D-segment but with class leading wheelbase of 284 cm. That is the secret behind interior space.
Excellent review Thomas. All your reviews were very detailed.
About the amazing AR Giulia Q, this car was simply a beast!
+InCoGn1t0 :)
Always highlighting the important details for somebody in the market for the cars in your reviews. Unfortunately, unless my lotto numbers come up, I'm not one of them. Thanks for helping me dream though. Great review on an amazing car
+Emmett Cotter thanks and spread the word for us!
Gorgeous! Well done, Alfa Romeo. And thank you!
excellent reviews, keep it up!
Never been a fan of Alfa BUT this new Giulia got me thinking + exhaust sound is simply awesome. Great review from Thomas
thx!
Fantastic quality review as always. Thank you !
+crimsonbride grazie!
Thomas best reviewer ever keep up the good work
thanks so much, stay tuned on autogefuehl!
Great review again Thomas. I think they've done a great job on this Alfa. Like the exaggerated exterior as some high performance cars have been too modest with minor differentiation from standard, e.g. current Audi RS3.
thanks buddy! recommend autogefühl !
Great review! Love mine!
I love the 'practical' reasoning tp provide the wife for the QV version :), I am afraid MB got my money this year already (mainly due to poor Alfa dealer network in the UK) but if I had not just swapped I would have put this on my shortlist.
what a car......
Best car reviewer on and off line!
haha thanks a lot!
already liked the video before watch it XD. the more I look at this car the more I fall in love with its looks
:)
Excellent review, as always.

Was für ein toller neuer Alfa. Was würde ich darum geben, so eine Giulia Quadrifoglio auch mal zu fahren oder gar vorstellen zu können.. Schönes Video.. :-)
vielen Dank! Bleib uns treu :)
Nice review and really details. Superb car with family ride
+Don Shafiq thanks man, join more of our reviews!
Had mine on same color for 5 years. Very reliable and still makes me laugh like a schoolboy getting in trouble
I'm very critical of car reviewers, but you are one of the very few good reviewers. You seem very logical and genuinely objective, and you have excellent charisma for the camera. I encourage you to include more jokes in your videos, you have a good sense of humor.
spread the word for us!
German reviewers are so much better than american reviewers.
So nice getting a review that doesn't focus on cupholder sizes.
very nice review. I have request for the further car reviews. Can you talk about the range how far you can drive in one tank? :)
thanks! sometimes you can see that in the instruments :)
damn....best v6 sound...ever heard.....
it s a ferrari client motorblok not the same as the maserati!!!
Yup, they basically took the V8 turbo that Ferrari used in the California and chopped off 2 cylinders.
Sounds amazing!
Thank you for the review. Finally someone intelligent. :) i wouldn't agree with all the tested aspects though.. Or much rather with their importance... But very professionally done and also aspects were regarded as style and functionality, which you didn't get in the other reviews. I think for me.. This has a lot of potential to become the best car ever built...! Thank you again.
thanks man! You are welcome not to agree with everything :)
My favourite car reviewer especially because he cares for the animals too!
+kenneth vella thx 4 the concern !!
the disegn is clear ,dinamic and elegant:Alfa with super engine Ferrari! a jewelery!!
Good job Thomas :)
grazie!
This has to be on the top of the list of anyone wanting a sporty sedan. It's the best from any perspective by huge margins (engine, dynamics, emotional aspects). It's also a very practical car, with good interior space and boot. It's not too expensive either. Alfa will sell a lot of them.
Great review of a great car.
thanks, keep tuning in! Make sure to activate the notifications that you see every new review!
cool cockpit! what a design for a 510 horse power V6
Especially the RED startbutton is an superb eyecatcher.
idiota !!!!
Thomas, can you try it in a track and burn its tyres. nice review with some missing points as hifi test, breake test, speed test. i really like the design and sound of car. Also you did not play with the arm rest :) much. Infotainment system controls are also loose i think. Thank you for the review.
yeah u can see some of those points in the big review with the normal Giulia!
Trying to get a trackday as well :)
Subbed for great in-depth reviews of great cars (Deutsche Gründlichkeit) and concern for animals. Grüssen aus Niederlande.
Greetings back to our friendly neigbours!
I like your videos you are so funny keep going. thank you
thanks stick with us !
Thomas, a great review as always, thank you.
In Europe, how common are Alfa dealers? Here in the USA, not very common at all. It's one of the reasons why I chose Porsche Cayman GTS instead of Alfa 4C.
they hardly sell cars in Germany, used to be more indeed!
Very nice video!
I would be very interested to know how this car would be on a long Autobahn haul?
thanks! I found it quite comfortable
Wow! 510hp car with manual gearbox. Crazy :) Like someone wrote already "Ferrari sedan" :)
Very nice sport car great video
12:24 the sound is not cheap, the sound is sporty... as well as knee space... as well as boot space
Thanks for showing alternatives to aniaml skin !
always go for that
This is the God of sport sedans...
“ze optional bakketszeets“ Nice review
we don't get the manual version here in the US. Would love to here more about it,
better than german competitors, for sporty purpose
No, it isn't. M4 or M3 are more dedicated to racing. Especially those equiped with competition packs. You must be working for Fiat Chrysler.
giulia is not a better car than the m3. Not better quality, but more sporty.That's what I'm saying.don't blame on me.
Take a look at "Alfa Romeo Giulia QV against everything" by Motor Trend and then we may talk about competition. BTW, depending on your age you may remember the DTM championship of the 90's: as long as Alfa took part with its 155s and 156s BMWs and Mercs had to bite the dust. Surely, after being purchased by Fiat in the mid 80s the brand lost its independence and struggled a lot, having no chance to get straight along with continuous development. And it won't never be the Alfa of the 50s and 60s again for sure. But talking about BMW's competition heritage is pointless. Compared to Alfa they had and still have simply minor race experience. So long.
You are right, but I did not speak negatively about the sporting characteristics of alfa romeo. I talked more about material quality, usability and technology. Alfa Romeo has a very successful history but fiat shadows this beautiful past.
Cant compare it with BMW, Audi AMD Mercedes. Better compare it with Porsche.
Front spoiler : it moves down to create more downforce at speed, something like a turbo s.
The combs at the front don't interfere with the safety at all, as the giulia has a 5 star rating in safety.
Combs at the side, obviously are functional, but to be honest I don't know for sure what air pressure do they take, if the wheel compartment, if the quarter panel, or if they take heat from the top of the engine.
That lower side spoiler are aero, I reckon some good +40kg at normal highway speeds, plus they actually look nice.
Back, you nothing to point out.
As for the bucket seats, you said it's faux carbon on the sides, but when you knock it, it didn't sound fake to me, that was the sound of knocking on carbon fiber. Where did you gather that it was fake?
As for the similarities, the current Audi chief interior designer (the guy responsible for every model interior on sale today), was from Alfa Romeo, so the interior design team on Alfa, obviously still has the influence from him, as much as Audi has the interiors of Alfa. (this according to alfisti that mentioned the name of the designer and offered more info on this).
As for the rest, very good, very in depth, would like you to mention if the lower interior panels are from plastic, what kind of plastic or if they are faux leather. This car, followed a very ugly trend from Audi, that is the interior plastic galore.
Great review. Please continue to do this!
Beautiful color
legend says : the Germans fancy this Italian stuck and whispers of it't power send chills tho even the hard ones.
A Simply Beautiful Design, Alfa are back, and at Full Throttle. I simply love this cars appearance! Though build quality, which has often eluded Alfa, is yet to be determined, and only Time and some Miles will truly tell this story.
It's crazy to think, that a 2.9 litre 6 cylinder Turbo motor, can get to 100 kph in under 4 seconds! Even 2 years ago, that was the exclusive arena of the Supercar. BMW's M, Audi RS and Mercedes's AMG divisions, had better take a serious look at what Alfa Romeo have been up to these last few years, as sleeping they have not been.
Though I can no longer enjoy the ownership/driving of these beasts, I really love hearing all about them, as they are for me the epitome of the all encompassing driving experience, and why a sizeable number of people quiet simply love cars.
There is nothing like the bark of a high performance 6, and the shriek it makes at high RPM's. Just listening to the music of a Porsche 911, or an (old) E46 BMW M3 make when been given a heavy foot on a responsive throttle.....Well it is enough to bring a wistful smile to the face of a old Petrol/Gear Head.
Thankyou Thomas and the team at Autogefuehl for this brief preview. I always look forward to your next video, this is especially true when you take a close and in depth look at the worlds true Sports Cars. Sincerely, M.
thanks buddy!
great review Thomas as always👍👍👍😊😊 they just released this car in the US, I wanted to buy one but worry about how reliable. this will only be my weekend car. how reliable do you think alfa is?? thanks thomas, your fan from San francisco😊😊
thanks m8 ! Dont really know about the new vehicles, only time can tell! Never been to Frisco yet, would love to
You should teach one of you seminar classes in frisco😊😊👍👍
sure, all invitations are welcome =)
Looking foward to seeing you in Frisco one of these day's. I want to get this alfa for weekend car. Not even available in my local alfa dealer yet. Keep up the great work. You are one of the best car reviewer out there😊😊👍👍
The newer alfas are very reliable.
Just ask owners of 159's, Breras, Giulettas..
I know the 4C has had some issues with the manual transmission, but if you choose the Giulia with the ZF auto transmission you are set (not sure if the manual in the Giulia is of the same make as the 4C).
Not sure on this. Hints of 3 series BMW look. Particularly its size. However, it might be a bit of a grower. Sounds good and I like the back diffuser/exhaust layout which reminds me of a 155 touring car. Front is pretty too.
I love this car so much
It's really cool
Que carro perfeito ... lindo demais .
What a beauty
Thomas how does this car compare to the ATS-V? I would love to hear your thoughts on the 2
seen our review? th-cam.com/video/SkQiJ8sB0rs/w-d-xo.html
There's no match with german cars:
Giulia is way more appealing, german cars are over since Giulia is out
it's a matter of style.
Opel Diplomat in the background !
Ahahhahahahahahah
Beautiful all over.
I love this car...way to go Alfa and Ferrari!
@Thomas: Did you have a chance to listen to the optional Harman Kardon? If so, can you gently give me a short feedback of your impression, pls?
Good question, I wanted to test the Veloce later this year, maybe I can listen to that one then
Wow!
www.alfaromeousa.com/ says so
6:00 Thomas rockstar version (side mirror)
the monster alfa 512 bhp !!!!!
Does anyone know by chance if it possible to fit the Quadrifoglio Version with roofbars? My information so far is a definitve yes but can anyone confirm this? I am a mountainbiker and skier, I am highly dependent on a way of transporting my equipment so thx in advance for any help.
Nice car
Since the stats are very similar, which car would you choose between the Giulia and the Mercedes c63-s AMG????
+THE SOOTHSAYER youtube search autogefuehl mercedes c63s
***** Thanks for your response. May I ask why you choose the Mercedes over the Giulia? Is it performance issues, quality, price???
Alfa Romeo back in DTM Please!!
Alfa Romeo old school for many italian's factory s as the Ferrari and Lamborghini.
The gauge cluster kinda sucks. Urgh why couldn't we get the manual in the US?!
Super car - Italian on the outside, German on the inside. Agree absolutely about the use of leather in cars. I don't like it -- let the animal keep its own skin. The only animal content of my crummy little car is in its name (Panda). Great review - closest I'm likely to get to a car like that!
thanks and great to hear you think so too !
nice care i like it, i need to know the colour code of this car please.
i would sell my body for this car.😂😂😂
This is the car that meets all your needs. One car for all seasons, best of all. Now the question is, who in a right mind would swap this beauty for an soulless, sterilised, dull and colourless Audi, Mercedes or BMW??
Great looking car and sounds fantastic. However, will the Fiat build quality stand up to its rivals? I think you like this car Thomas!
+Rob Trust thats exactly the question. We will
Know in 3 years :)
Very detailed review. I'm guessing you are vegan or vegetarian because of the animals comment.
indeed
I'm glad that you're not only very good car journalist (morover, you've got your own style which is not so common in your business) but a good person as well :) Respect, Thomas! Keep it that way :)
I get the reasoning for some people but to me it come off as preachy. Its fine though, I don't have to watch nor listen.
What exactly did you find "preachy"? Did Thomas say: "Do not do this, do not do that"? I really don't get your point.
+antirussia81 He constantly says we should not buy leather because it harms animals.
Yo he tenido uno manual un año y ahora hace apenas un mes me lo he cogido automatico. Para mi todo un sueño de coche, aunque la verdad manual deja mucho que desear, nada que ver con la caja ZF de 8 velocidades, el anterior con la caja manual de 6 velocidades no aprovecha el potencial del motor, las marchas son muy largar, para que os hagais una idea, en 2da 120kms, en 3era a 180kms, pero a niveles practicos el abanico de revoluciones es mas reducido. Un simple ejemplo... Para ir bien, lo llevas en 2da por una calle de pueblo convencional, sin embargo el rango de revoluciones no es el idoneo y se queda a muy pocas vueltas...En fin nada que ver con el automatico. Con la ZF las machas son mas cortas y acertadas, el abanico de revoluciones es infinitamente mas amplio, siempre encuentras par motor, eso por no hablar de la seguridad que aporta, con estas potencias y velocidades sacar las manos del volante o al estar contravolanteando. Sabia que era el coche que queria y me gustaba y tenia claro que con la caja ZF seria otro coche y asi ha sido, sencillamente es otro coche diferente, pero nada que ver, una locura. Ahora es completamente un monstruo. Y del coche el que conozca un poco ya sabe de la bestia que es, es casi un mito ya de la mejor ingenieria, no solo en el chasis, si no en todo el conjunto, esquemas de supensión, dirección....en fin...Todo un pura sangre y a la vez una berlina de muy altos vuelos, completamente versatil y familiar. Saludos.
Even though I don't speak Spanish & I used Google translate, I really want to thank you for your comment. It's very valuable. I'll be honest manual Alfa Romeo Giulia QV is my dream car as it is the essence of what an Alfa supposed to be. After reading your comment my head says the ZF automatic but my heart still says the manual. I think I'll go for the manual & try that first since they're more rare & special
I get the appeal of the Giulia. What's not to like about a sexy Italian sedan that's affordable (relatively speaking), has great performance, and offers a Ferrari-developed engine. However, having seen this car up close and in-person recently, I must say that the 'wow' factor dissipates very quickly. The build quality, inside and out, left a lot to be desired with poorly aligned body panels and an overall cheapness of the interior materials. The interior felt quite dated when compared to something like the new C63 AMG.
Thomas, how would you compare the build of the Quadrifoglio vs the C63 AMG or the M3?
+Ankit Maloney the german cars have better build quality, but alfa has improved a lot. Bmw interior is quite boring tbh
I think I missed it but what is the name of the color of this car?
Wow a real contender to the M3 on looks. The drive might be a different story tho.
Hi :)
Chris Harris described it in his TopGear video as more comfortable and relaxing on the road than an M3, so it is perhaps a better daily. On track he said that the German cars are a bit more engaging, he felt more connected in an M3, as the Giulia felt a little bit more inert, but only by a little bit.
The positives of the Giulia as stated by Harris is a more diverse chassis, comfortable on the road and capable of a good thrashing on the track, an engine that loves to revv, which made it feel more exciting than the competition, and it being by far the fastest car in its class, as quoted "at least 10% faster that an M3". The negatives was that the Giulia was not quite as sharp as the competition in terms of feeling and connectivity.
So objectively he said that it was not better than an M3.
But subjectively, its looks are fantastic, and the fact that it is a RWD Alfa Romeo with 500 bhp just made a brilliant combination, or as he ended his article in the TopGear magazine "Look at that stance, look at that badge. Think I want one."
As always, the brain goes for the M3, but the heart longs for an Alfa
Hope I could help give you a good image, the Alfa community needs some fresh blood :)
+Don Pedro did you know Harris drives and loves huis BMW M5!! Harris loves huis Beamers. Objectivity in car journalism is something very subjective. I think BMW and alfa are both great cars with a different look and feel. Both are very fast on the nurnburgring. So I think they are both very Sharp.
+Don Pedro can you post a link from the video of Harris!? Thanks
+aam voor i can't right now, but it's on top gear. just search "alfa giulia chris harris top gear" and you'll probably find it :)

I love so much that pure German accent 👍😁👉🇩🇪
=)
...bei mir merkt Mann auch,das ich ein akzent hab' (Ungarisch) ..Am sonst, alle deine Reviews sind einfach TOP 👍😉
goodbye M3 lol
It would help if we start it out with the correct HP being shown at 505HP, not 510HP. Per the window sticker of a certain car ........ALFA GIULIA QUADRIFOGLIO RWD....Exterior Color: Alfa Rosso (Red) Exterior Paint Interior Color: Black Accent Stitching Interior Colors Interior: Leather and Alcantara® Seats Engine: 2.9L 505HP V6 Twin-Turbo Engine Transmission: 8-Speed Automatic Transmission. Not sure why people cannot get this right in various reviews but it is 505HP not 510HP or 515HP.
+Vincent Vanetti did you know that every single vehicle can vary in horse power at about 10 to 20 HP? The customer just wouldn't know. Also, the very exact hp figures are different from market to market according to the specific Homologation
Well, they do not vary on ANY Quadrifoglio made for the US market, it states 505 on every single one. Sure, there can be variations of horsepower here and there among cars made on the same assembly line, but it is not a 510HP engine, it states 505HP on the window and the vin designation, sorry. This is like arguing if the sky is blue or bluer than blue, but I get your point, just making mine. You are not the only reviewer to state this, but it is factory incorrect. When you own one, rather than review one, you might be more wary.
Where's the full review, Tomas?
th-cam.com/video/fDcRdu3kHG0/w-d-xo.html our review to the Giulia in general. You can also always look for "Autogefuehl" and brand + model name - that's the easiest way to find the review you are looking for
Autogefühl Thomas it's not what I meant by full reviwe. You mention in the video there would be a full review of Giulia Q.
Btw. I drove both Q and 180bph diesel today. Great car!!! Absolutely amzing to drive and also very happy with the ergonomic interior. Don't like the options list tho. Alfas used to be well equipped as standard. Now 10-20 KEUR is needed to make the car great
Expected more from Alfa. Btw how about a review of a nice Golf 1.4 tsi?
Haha! Nice one!
good one)))
Expected more? Man, this is actually the best car in its category under every kind of technical perspective.
C´mon Golf is boring... and expensive too
Yeah they missed the mark for mars exploration but hey it's not like you are nit-picking
L'Alfa Romeo wear out those who don't.
bye bye M3 , Sorry but that rocks my soul !!!
Thomas just buy one already you know you want it
=)
I got rid of my V6 Supercharged Range Rover Sport because I couldn't get it to sound like this.
