Appearance: Little changes, major upgrades
In terms of appearance, there is no intuitive difference between the design of the new model and the current model. It is still Alfa Romeo Highly personalized design elements, changes mainly come from details.
The front face uses a family-style inverted triangular grille design that is highly recognizable, and the sports front bumper is slightly adjusted compared to the current model. The LED headlight set has been upgraded from 25W to 35W, with better lighting brightness, and a new headlight cleaning function has been added.
On the side of the car body, the overall posture is also biased toward creating a sporty atmosphere. A bright-colored body with the word "Ti" is added to the front fender. badge, the chrome side window moldings and the segmented electric sunroof have been eliminated.
As for wheels, the real-life model uses a new style of monochrome aluminum rims, and the driving version (Ti) comes standard with 18-inch wheels. The tire specification is 225/45 R18, and the track version of the 19-inch wheels with narrow front and wide rear is also optional (front 225/40 R19 rear 255/35 R19), combined with the standard rear axle limited-slip differential, can reflect the advantages of high-horsepower rear drive.
The rear part of the car is equipped with an inverted triangle-shaped LED taillight set and a dark-colored double-sided exhaust layout, which greatly enhances the overall sporty feel of the car.
There is no change in size compared to the current model, with a length, width and height of 4643mm*1860mm*1438mm, and a wheelbase of 2820mm. Since this is a sports performance car, the front-wheel drive layout compresses the cabin space, so space performance is not its strong point.
In terms of body color, the actual model is painted with Alpha Red standard paint, which is bright in sunlight and has good texture. In addition, the driving version also offers Alpha White standard paint, as well as four metallic paints: Volcano Black, Electric Blue, Vesuvius Ash, and Haoyue White.
The track version also offers two standard paints: Alpha White and Alpha Red, as well as three metallic paints: Volcano Black, Misano Blue, and Vesuvius Gray. Additional options are available The three-layer paint, which is more sporty, is available in intense red and ocher gold.

The design includes aluminum trim, leather wrapping and the steering wheel. Oak solid wood decorative panels are added to the center console and gear lever table. The sports aluminum shift paddles are cancelled, and the door sills are replaced with sports aluminum pedals.
The instrument panel is still a combination of dual-pointer dial + 7-inch color screen, 8.8-inch central touch screen The screen system also supports Apple CarPlay/Baidu CarLife mobile phone mapping. In terms of software, the new car has upgraded navigation from the previous option to standard.
In terms of configuration, it has been upgraded mainly in terms of comfort and convenience configuration and active and passive safety. The entire series is equipped with wireless charging for mobile phones as standard, but since it is not a flat layout, from the experience point of view It seems not very friendly to small mobile phones. If it falls to the bottom, it will be out of the wireless charging induction area.
In addition, it also comes standard with a lane change blind spot monitoring system, automatic emergency braking, ACC adaptive cruise, automatic high beams and automatic Anti-glare exterior rearview mirrors and other configurations. In addition, all 2022 Giulia series can be upgraded to L2-level driving assistance systems, including traffic jam assist system, lane keeping assist system, intelligent speed control system, highway driving assist system and active blind spot assist system.

The transmission system is matched with an 8-speed automatic transmission. The acceleration time from 100 kilometers to 100 kilometers is 5.2 seconds.
