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.
The new arrival is based on the existing Progression variant. Its extra equipment includes a set of 17” five-hole alloy wheels, extended side skirts, a rear diffuser, black window surrounds and a anthracite finish for the front fog light bezels, door mirror caps, door handles and front grille.
The interior meanwhile gains cloth and Alcantara upholstery, red stitching, a height-adjustable driver’s seat, carbon fibre-effect trim, sports instruments, a darkened headlining and bespoke floor mats.
A major specification highlight is the engine. Although it’s the familiar 1.4 litre MultiAir turbocharged petrol unit, the version in the Giulietta Sprint uniquely produces 148 bhp (110 kW / 150 PS) with 250 Nm (184 lb/ft) of peak torque.
That output, which is delivered via a six-speed manual transmission, is enough for a 0-62 mph (100 km/h) time of 8.2 seconds and a 130 mph (210 km/h) top speed. Efficiency isn’t too bad either, as the combined cycle figures for fuel economy and CO2 emissions are 49.6 mpg (5.7 l/100km) and 131 g/km respectively.
Sales of the Alfa Romeo Giulietta Sprint are due to begin in early 2015. In the UK, on-the-road prices start from £20,490.
