Alfa Romeo Giulia Quadrifoglio debut at the Frankfurt Motor Show

The all new Alfa Romeo Giulia Quadrifoglio made its public debut at the Frankfurt Motor Show with no fewer than five examples of the high-performance saloon on display across Alfa Romeo's striking and impressive new stand, each finished in a different colour - Competizione Red, Trofeo White, Vulcano Black, Vesuvio Grey and Montecarlo Blue.

Built on an all new, rear-wheel drive platform with an emphasis on light weight and agility, the sporty underpinnings of the new Giulia define its shape and strongly influence its design with Alfa Romeo stylists wrapping the mechanical components in a taut, muscular package dominated by its long bonnet, short overhangs, muscular haunches and the longest wheelbase in its class.

Simple, natural lines enhance its shape and proportions, while the surface is finished with elegance and restraint, exuding the purity and style one comes to expect of Italian design.

Under the bonnet beats the heart of the Alfa Romeo Giulia Quadrifoglio, an all-aluminium, 2.9-litre turbo petrol V6 engine, inspired by Ferrari technology and expertise, which produces 503bhp and 600Nm of torque, resulting in a top speed of 307km/h and a 0 to 100km/h time of just 3.9 seconds.
