Alfa Romeo Giulia Quadrifoglio engine explained
The class-leading performance from this petrol powered engine is guaranteed by the powerful, aluminum, 2.9-litre V6 Bi-turbo power-plant capable of delivering 505 horsepower.
This “halo” model highlights Alfa Romeo’s exclusive motorsports expertise that earns the title of the most-powerful Alfa Romeo production car engine ever and the quickest with a class-leading 3.8 second 0-100km/h acceleration time.
Plus, this Quadrifoglio set a Nürburgring lap time of 7:32, the fastest ever by a four-door production sedan at its launch year.
Delivery to the wheels is the responsibility of the Alfa™ Active Torque Vectoring system, assisted in the Stelvio Quadrifoglio by the innovative Q4 all-wheel-drive system.
The 8-speed automatic transmission is calibrated to optimize fluidity and comfort so the vehicles can easily be driven on all terrains.
Only in RACE mode do these cars express their full potential with lightning-fast gear changes in only 150 milliseconds, but each Quadrifoglio is fitted with a range of systems designed to enhance the pleasure of driving, offering motorists the most authentic, engaging experience behind the wheel.
These include Alfa™ Active Suspension, Alfa™ DNA Pro selector with Race mode and the Alfa™ Active Aero splitter on the Giulia. The systems are all coordinated and adapted in real time by the Alfa™ Chassis Domain Control (CDC) unit, constantly ensuring the ideal conditions for vehicle and driver to make the most of the exceptional performance Quadrifoglio models.
The soundtrack accompanying the Quadrifoglio driving experience is provided by a dual mode quad exhaust system.
As the first of a new generation of vehicles on an all-new platform, the Alfa Romeo Giulia embody Alfa Romeo’s La meccanica delle emozioni (the mechanics of emotion) spirit, delivering race-inspired performance with a class-leading 280 horsepower, advanced technologies including the available Q4 all-wheel-drive system, seductive Italian style and an exhilarating driving experience to the premium mid-size sedan segment.
