Engineered “luck”
It is a badge born over one hundred years ago that still stands for something totally original today: the Alfa Romeo marque represents a passion for motoring unlike any other. With racetrack wins at Mille Miglia, Targa Florio, 24 Hours of Le Mans and countless milestones along the way, a century-long motorsport history comes through loud and clear on any vehicle produced by this iconic Brand.
The very top Alfa Romeo performers are further distinguished by another historic emblem — Quadrifoglio — a four-leaf clover inlay within a white triangle. It’s a good-luck tradition started by the legendary Alfa Romeo factory driver Ugo Sivocci in 1923, whose original hand-painted clover within a white square adorned his winning car at Targo Florio that year. Weeks later, Sivocci tragically lost his life in a vehicle that was missing his good luck charm. From that point on, every Alfa Romeo performance car would bear the four-leaf clover on a white triangle instead of a square — with the missing corner symbolizing the loss of Sivocci. Now, the latest Giulia Quadrifoglio, with its record-breaking track results, wears it well.
Alfa Romeo has always taken a unique and innovative approach to designing its automobiles; it is the point of convergence between a love for the most cutting-edge technology and a strong instinct to inspire emotions. Today, Alfa Romeo is writing a new chapter in its history, introducing a future where, once again, the driver is at the center of the design.

A Return to F1
This is a Formula 1 comeback story that restores
the standing of one of the greatest names
in motorsport history. Now, the legendary
Alfa Romeo Quadrifoglio badge will appear on a
Sauber C37, as it has on the brand’s top performance
cars since 1923. The iconic four-leaf symbol returns to
the highest level of racing to show the world the continuing
strength and success of the Alfa Romeo philosophy.
It demands the constant search for excellence; first
applied to racing, then transferred in its entirety to the
brand’s production cars. Over one hundred years later,
the legend continues.

DNA
ALFA DNA DRIVE MODE SELECTOR Alfa DNA and Alfa DNA Pro Drive Mode Selectors (exclusive to Quadrifoglio) instantaneously adapt the behavior of the vehicle to the selected driving mode:
• RACE deactivates traction control and stability control while activating the overboost function for increased torque to maximize performance
• DYNAMIC delivers sharper throttle response, enhanced steering feedback and performance shift-mapping for sporty on-road driving
• NATURAL is a comfort setting for a perfect balance in dailydriving
• ADVANCED EFFICIENCY is engineered for maximum fuel efficiency; on Quadrifoglio, it includes cylinder deactivation
The intrinsic value of AWD
Giulia’s available Q4 All-Wheel-Drive (AWD) system combines the advantages of AWD with the performance and driving pleasure of rear-wheel drive. Under normal conditions, the Q4 AWD system sends 100% of the engine torque to the rear axle. When necessary, the system can automatically transfer up to 60% of the torque to the front axle thanks to the Active Transfer Case (ATC). It continuously monitors road conditions to deliver ideal torque distribution, maximizing grip and performance.

PATENTED ALFA LINKTM SUSPENSION Giulia excels at
high-lateral acceleration by forming a near-perfect footprint, thanks to its front double-wishbone suspension. Its semi-virtual steering axis guarantees rapid, accurate steering. The rear suspension uses a 4 ½-link system — patented by Alfa Romeo — representing the best combination of lateral grip and comfort level, even on rugged road surfaces.
CARBON FIBER DRIVESHAFT The ideal power-to-
weight ratio of Giulia is the product of lightweight, high-tech materials, such as carbon fiber for the driveshaft and aluminum for the engines, suspension systems, hood,* doors and roof.* These elements enhance Giulia’s overall balance, providing excellent precision and performance — delivering exceptional handling even in extreme conditions.

DUAL EXHAUST Beyond creating a sporty rear view on Giulia, these chrome tips are just part of a
comprehensive exhaust system which delivers the signature Alfa Romeo exhaust note.

The latest evolution of
Giulia began with an all-new architecture that’s characterized by a longitudinal engine framework. The design emphasizes precise placement of lightweight materials to help achieve near-perfect 50/50 weight distribution across the front and rear axles.

Built to conquer
What sets Giulia Quadrifoglio apart? Plenty. Beyond its iconic clover badge, you’ll find a leather-wrapped steering wheel with
Red push-button start that offers precise control, as its 2.9L twin-turbocharged V6 engine fuels thrill rides with 505 hp and
443 lb-ft of torque. You’ll hear a distinctive exhaust note from the dual-mode quad exhaust, and you’ll feel the difference a turn of
a knob can make with the Alfa DNA Pro Drive Mode Selector. For Quadrifoglio, it features the Race mode, for one-with-the-road
performance, while the carbon fiber active aero front splitter adds another level of control. Comfort gets personal — 14-way front
power seats offer 4-way lumbar and power adjustable bolsters, all wrapped up in Alcantara®/performance leather.

Feeds the competitive spirit
Ti Sport stirs up the adrenaline with athletic talents that reward drivers at every turn. Its flat-out performance exceeds
the high expectations its fierce cladding suggests: sport front and rear fascias, colored calipers, available 19-inch Dark 5-hole aluminum wheels and run-flat all-season performance tires help deliver on a visual promise. Playing to the crowd, Ti Sport features aluminum interior trim, sport leather seats and aluminum sport pedals. Its flat-bottomed steering wheel brings mounted audio controls, aluminum steering column-mounted paddle shifters and a push-button start to the ride.
