We decided to change the rear suspension, so also the gearbox casing and that then opens the door to new cooling layouts, which themselves once in place, allowed us to develop the bodywork in ways that last year was not possible," technical director Jan Monchaux said.

GIULIA SPRINT: A tribute to the brand's sporting DNA, it is equipped with active cruise control and a leather sports steering wheel. It is available with petrol or diesel engines of 190 or 200 hp. Alfa Romeo’s 2023 Formula 1 car, the C43, features several key modifications at the rear compared to its predecessor, the team’s Technical Director, Jan Monchaux, has explained. It has been quite a journey for us because it was a big, complex part we had to re-do and then evidently how all the rear end works with the floor alongside the new regs. So we have really been putting a lot of effort on the rear end of the car while the front will be successively developed during the season."He signed off: “The [new] car hasn’t run yet, so reliability is perfect! I assume it will stay as this. Touch wood, but I’m fairly confident we have left these issues behind us.”

GIULIA SPECIALE: elegant, it is equipped with a leather steering wheel and a 25W Bi-Xenon light signature. It is available with petrol or diesel engines of 160, 190 or 200 hp.

What does the 2023 Alfa Romeo Stelvio facelift consist of?

Upgrade to the Veloce and this brings the styling upgrades we’ve already mentioned, as well as a limited-slip differential to enhance the driving experience. Electric front seats are added, along with a power tailgate. Historically, we were always very strong with reliability, but last year somehow we lost a little bit what used to be one of our biggest strengths, so it was clearly one of the focuses, or one of the areas of major focus for us last winter.” The used ALFA ROMEO GIULIA is an elegant saloon car that pays tribute to the brand's sporting spirit and Italian style. With its aerodynamic design, harmonious volumes, wide choice of petrol or diesel engines and the latest equipment and technology, it ensures an incomparable driving experience and adapts to your needs. The refined interior focuses on the driving experience, with all the controls within easy reach and the presence of delicate materials such as carbon fibre and wood. The ALFA ROMEO GIULIA is equipped with an eight-speed automatic transmission with 2 or 4-wheel drive, combined with a selection of seven petrol or diesel engines. It is available in 5 different finishes:

Alfa Romeo reserves the right to change, amend or withdraw this offer at any point in time. Correct at time of publication. The plug-in hybrid Tonale Q4 is the most powerful variant in the range, producing 271bhp all-in and offering all-wheel drive. The 1.3-litre petrol engine under the bonnet sends its power to the front wheels, while the single electric motor fed by a 15.5kWh battery drives the rears. Alongside Alfa Romeo’s quest for performance, Monchaux added that reliability has also been a focus for the squad ahead of the new campaign, having seen points go begging on several occasions in 2022 due to component failures. Then, evidently, all the rear-end work we see with the floor, alongside the new regs… so we’ve really been putting a lot of effort on the second part of the car, while the front will be successively developed during the season. The livery was designed by Alfa Romeo in Turin as the team's partnership with the Italian car manufacturer enters its final year this season. From 2026, the Sauber team will be majority owned and run by Audi.The Stelvio is an SUV that goes about its business differently to most rivals, putting a focus on the driving experience and styling above all else. In these two areas, it’s only the Porsche Macan that can come close. According to Alfa Romeo, the Tonale Q4 can cover up to 42 miles on electric power alone, or 50 miles if you’re just driving around town. The plug-in Tonale can also return up to 217mpg while emitting 29-32g/km of CO2, which is how it attracts the same eight per cent Benefit-in-Kind tax rate as the latest BMW X1 PHEV, and well below the 14 per cent BiK rate for the equivalent XC40. Offering up more details, he continued: “In effect, we decided to change the rear axis, redoing the rear suspension, and therefore the gearbox casing, which then opens the door to new layouts, especially on the [cooling] side, which once in place allowed us to develop the bodywork.

GIULIA VELOCE: sporty, with large wheels, heated leather sports seats and aluminium sports pedals. It has the most powerful engines in the range: a 280 hp petrol engine with or without four-wheel drive or a 210 hp diesel engine with four-wheel drive. The experts at Euro NCAP gave the Tonale the full five stars for safety – the same as all the rivals. It comes with adaptive cruise control that can read road signs and alter your speed accordingly, and lane-keep assist with lane centring that’s said to work even at low speeds in traffic.The Stelvio comes in a choice of two trim levels – Sprint and Veloce. There’s plenty of equipment included from the offset too, such as 19-inch alloy wheels, the twin screens and leather upholstery. On Tuesday, Alfa Romeo presented their new challenger and new livery for the upcoming F1 season, as the Sauber-run operation look to build on a P6 finish in last year’s constructors’ standings.
