Alfa Romeo recently revived the famous designation GTA in the form of the Giulia GTA. The extra powerful and light version appeals to the imagination, but for now we do not have to take into account that more GTAs will be available, according to Alfa Romeo.
Many an Alfa heart will have beat faster when the Alfa Romeo Giulia GTA and GTAm were unveiled a month ago. While the Giulia Q is already a delicious thrash of Italian violence, the GTA goes a step further. Even more power, 540 hp, and the GTA is also 100 kilos lighter than the Q. All in all good for a 0-100 km / h sprint that can be done in 3.6 seconds. Of course, several very striking aerodynamic gadgets, such as the huge rear spoiler, ensure that the Giulia GTA is really not to be missed. And otherwise Akrapovic’s exhaust system will keep you on the ball when the GTA arrives.
In short, a lot to get happy if you like some old-fashioned motorized fun. That makes one think: why would Alfa Romeo leave it at the Giulia? Well, in short, the Stelvio brand just doesn’t find it suitable: “We met on the Stelvio GTA, but it’s just not in line with customer expectations. A GTA must be the cream of the crop, but the Stelvio is unable to achieve the same goals due to its high center of gravity, “said marketing chief Fabio Migliavacca to Autocar. According to him, the Giulia can bring back the old GTA experience, while that with the Stelvio as an SUV becomes a lot more difficult.
