Che Figata! Alfa Romeo Shows 2024 Lineup

The brand from Italy rolls into the next model year with a trio of models under its finely crafted leather belt, starting with the new Tonale and followed by the Giulia sedan plus Stelvio crossover. Fresh off the line are Competizione variants of the latter two, in addition to trims marking a centenary date.


Let’s start with the Stelvio. As Alfa celebrates the 100th anniversary of the Quadrifoglio performance brand, the plan is to build – you guessed it – a hundred copies of the limited-edition 100th Anniversary Quadrifoglio trim. Look for touches like unique wheels, carbon fiber mirror caps, and a dark grille. It’s not all paint and wallpaper, as Quadrifoglio models also upgrade the limited-slip differential from standard to operate mechanically instead of with what’s technically traction control wizardry. 


The new Competizione is based on a Veloce trim, meaning it’ll be powered by the 2.0-liter turbocharged engine delivering 280 horsepower and 306 lb-ft of torque, not the Quad’s 505-horse twin-turbo monster. Alfa adds active suspension gubbins here, along with the likes of a banging stereo system and extra badging. It is priced at $55,825 plus destination. All trims get fresh exterior lighting and a new digital instrument panel.

Prefer a sedan? Me, too. The slick Giulia model gets similar trim updates as the Stelvio, bringing a 100th Anniversary Giulia Quadrifoglio option and a Competizione which is based on the Veloce. Both those trims have upgrades that essentially parallel the same-name trims on Stelvio. Look for the Giulia Competizione to be priced at $51,520 plus destination for a rear-wheel drive car; add two grand to yer budget for all-wheel drive. It also gets new lights and a new gauge cluster.


Finally, we have the Tonale, offered as a plug-in hybrid that tag teams a 1.3L turbocharged four-banger and electric motor. Stated output is 285 horsepower and 347 lb-ft of torque. Thanks to a 15.5-kWh lithium-ion battery, it does have an all-electric range of about 30 miles, suitable for wide swaths of city-dwelling Americans whose commutes are well within that number. There will be three trims: Sprint, Ti, and Veloce. 


For those with inquiring minds, we will tell you that Alfa Romeo sold 12,845 vehicles in this country last year, roughly split evenly between Stelvio and Giulia.

    LOL... the number of comments here will be far higher than the actual US Sales of all these models put together. If they are not zero (a prudent decision, not to bring them here and bleed millions and millions of $)

    Saw a black Giulia quad 3-4 years ago, looked good, haven't seen many since. Saw a stelvio the other day with a headlight out, which is half the face of the car.

  • Rover Sig 2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited, like my previous JGC's cheap to keep (essentially just oil, tires) until recent episode of clunking in front suspension at 50K miles led to $3000 of parts replaced over fives visits to two Jeep dealers which finally bought a quiet front end. Most expensive repair on any vehicle I've owned in the last 56 years.
  • Bob Hey Tassos, have you seen it with top down. It's a permanent roll bar so if it flips no problem. It's the only car with one permanently there. So shoots down your issue. I had a 1998 for 10 years it was perfect, but yes slow. Hardly ever see any of them anymore.
  • 3-On-The-Tree 2007 Toyota Sienna bedsides new plugs, flat tire on I-10 in van Horn Tx on the way to Fort Huachuca.2021 Tundra Crewmax no issues2021 Rav 4 no issues2010 Corolla I put in a alternator in Mar1985 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ60 280,000mi I put in a new radiator back in 08 before I deployed, did a valve job, new fuel and oil pump. Leaky rear main seal, transmission, transfer case. Rebuild carb twice, had a recall on the gas tank surprisingly in 2010 at 25 years later.2014 Ford F159 Ecoboost 3.5L by 80,000mi went through both turbos, driver side leaking, passenger side completely replaced. Rear min seal leak once at 50,000 second at 80,000. And last was a timing chain cover leak.2009 C6 Corvette LS3 Base, I put in a new radiator in 2021.
  • ChristianWimmer 2018 Mercedes A250 AMG Line (W177) - no issues or unscheduled dealer visits. Regular maintenance at the dealer once a year costs between 400,- Euros (standard service) to 1200,- Euros (major service, new spark plugs, brake pads + TÜV). Had one recall where they had to fix an A/C hose which might become loose. Great car and fun to drive and very economical but also fast. Recently gave it an “Italian tune up” on the Autobahn.
  • Bd2 Lexus is just a higher trim package Toyota. ^^
