The next electric Giulia will be as powerful as a Bugatti Veyron
If some frown upon observing the war on power that American manufacturers have been waging for many years with their muscle cars, the electric turn is unlikely to slow down this increase in horsepower. Add Alfa Romeo to the growing list of manufacturers who want their place at the forefront of electric performance.
The president of the illustrious Italian brand, Jean-Philippe Imparato, recently confirmed that the next generation of its compact sedan Giulia will be electric and will offer a version of 1000 metric hp. That’s nearly double the cavalry of the current generation Quadrifoglio livery with a 2.9L twin-turbo V6 and crucially, the figure equalizes the power of the extraordinary Bugatti Veyron when it was introduced in 2005. other liveries of this electric Giulia will have 350 hp and 800 hp, according to the big boss of the manufacturer. The targeted autonomy will border on 700 km in the European cycle, according to what the magazine has learned Coach.
To support the power supply, the car will have an 800 V electrical architecture. The STLA electrical modular chassis will provide the foundations for this spectacular relaunch, which is scheduled for 2025. At the same time, Alfa Romeo is preparing its return to the mid-size sedan segment with a new electric model featuring the same mechanics. Necessary, probably not, but we can only rejoice to see such plans for such a charismatic brand, but whose future was compromised by its low popularity.
