Alfa Romeo Giulietta 2019 update revealed

Alfa Romeo has updated the Giulietta hatchback for the 2019 model year, with new colours, wheel options and a reshuffled range in Europe. 

There are also six new option packages for the car in Europe, with a business pack, convenience pack, carbon look pack, red racing pack, yellow racing pack and tech pack all available for customers to choose from - though changes to the Australian model are yet to be announced. 

Alfa Romeo has also revised the available model structure in Europe, with six available model trims for buyers to choose from: the base Giulietta, Giulietta Super, Giulietta Sport, Giulietta Executive and the Giulietta Veloce. Each model features distinct styling and unique features to differentiate it from other models. 

The Veloce, which sits atop the Australian Giulietta range, has earned new 18-inch alloy wheels, as well as glossy black finishing of the mirror caps, door handles, foglight bezels and twin tailpipes. 

On the inside of the Giulietta Veloce there are new Alcantara and fabric sports seats with contrasting yellow stitching, as well as aluminium pedals, matte anthracite mouldings and a contoured sports steering wheel with yellow stitching.

All available engines in the Giulietta range now comply with Euro 6d emissions standards, and in Europe, newly available engine options include a 92kW 1.4-litre turbo-petrol, a 92kW 1.6-litre turbo-diesel and a 125kW 2.0-litre turbocharged diesel.

Alfa Romeo Australia is yet to comment on the updated Giulietta’s local arrival.
