Engines

The engines will likely be various Multijet diesels and petrols, with a V6 as the top powertrain, which may be the only engine available in the US. Alfa have also confirmed a new 1.8 litre 300 PS (221 kW; 296 hp) engine, which may replace the Alfa Romeo V6, with production of this new engine starting in the next few years. The 1750TBi will probably be used as well. In the 159, this engine produces 200 PS (147 kW; 197 hp), however the Giulietta QV (Quadrifoglio Verde (Cloverleaf)) version of this powertrain produces 235 PS (173 kW; 232 hp). The Giulia will probably be available with a 6 speed manual, and the new AlfaTCT, twin clutch, 6 speed semi-automatic.
