Autoesque

Alfa Romeo registered just 1,574 cars in the UK last year. To put that figure into context, fellow Stellantis marques Abarth and DS achieved higher totals (with 2,335 and 2,362 units respectively).

Alfa Romeo is marking the end of 4C Spider sales with a special edition for North America. As its name indicates, the new 33 Stradale Tributo has been inspired by the 33 Stradale mid-engine sports car of 1967.

Alfa Romeo has added a new Veloce Ti – or Turismo Internazionale – trim grade to its Stelvio range.

Alfa Romeo has introduced the 2020 Giulia Quadrifoglio and Stelvio Quadrifoglio. While they both still feature a 503 bhp (375 kW / 510 PS) 2.9 litre V6 bi-turbo engine and an eight-speed automatic transmission, an Akrapovič titanium exhaust with carbon fibre tailpipes has become a cost option.

Centro Stile Alfa Romeo has designed a collection of striking colour schemes for the new Giulia GTA and GTAm. Inspired by various racing saloons from the brand’s history, they’re going to be available in limited numbers.

It’s still very charismatic, but the nine-year-old Alfa Romeo Giulietta is in danger of becoming outdated. Unfortunately, the car’s cause won’t be helped by some just-announced changes.

Customers in the UK can now place their orders for the Giulia Quadrifoglio NRING and Stelvio Quadrifoglio NRING. However, prospective purchasers need to act quickly, because just 108 examples of each model have been allocated to the entire EMEA region.

An international panel of sixty motoring journalists has decided that the Volvo XC40 is 2018’s European Car of the Year.

This year’s North American Car of the Year, Truck of the Year and Utility Vehicle of the Year have been named at the North American International Auto Show in Detroit.

It seems that the jurors who get to vote for the North American Car of the Year, Truck of the Year and Utility Vehicle of the Year awards aren’t currently enamoured with American brands.

A first vote by sixty European Car of the Year jurors has determined the seven models that could win the 2018 title. Clearly some rather peculiar thought processes were followed, because a few seemingly strong contenders haven’t made the cut.

Like any prize that’s decided by a large international jury, the European Car of the Year verdict is usually going to be controversial.

Plenty of new car launches are scheduled for this year. The ten listed below are worth getting most excited about, because they're all likely to have a significant impact on their respective market segments.

Following a first round of voting, seven nominees for the 2017 European Car of the Year award have been named. They comprise a diverse group, but none are especially exciting or innovative.

Lots of attention has been paid to the range-topping Giulia Quadrifoglio since it was first revealed last year. However, most buyers of Alfa Romeo's new compact sports saloon are invariably going to choose humbler trim grades such as the Super and Veloce, which will debut at this month's Paris International Motor Show.

Alfa Romeo refers to its 2016 Giulietta as 'new', which seems like a rather generous description for what is really a fairly basic late-life refresh.

Most of the ten models listed below are destined to achieve relatively modest sales volumes. Nevertheless, they are among the more interesting new cars scheduled to arrive at dealers during 2016.

Alfa Romeo has added a Collezione trim grade to its MiTo and Giullietta ranges. The new arrivals, which are billed as “luxury flagships”, gain extra equipment and some cosmetic enhancements.

Alfa Romeo has celebrated its 105th birthday by (finally) unveiling the Giulia.

In 1954, the original Giulietta Sprint was launched. Alfa Romeo has realised (seemingly just in time) that this year marks the model’s 60th anniversary, so to celebrate a Sprint trim grade has been added to the current Giulietta range.
