2022 Alfa Romeo Giulia: What's New, Specs & Features
Last updated August 4, 2026
The most important change for the 2022 Alfa Romeo Giulia is a much richer list of standard comfort, tech, and driver-assistance features. It is not a redesign, but the lineup is simplified, with Ti Veloce taking the place of Ti Sport.
About the 2022 Alfa Romeo Giulia
1st generation (U.S. market 2017-2024), late pre-refresh year.
Alfa Romeo positions the Giulia as a driver-first luxury sport sedan that blends Italian design, quick steering, and strong straight-line performance with everyday usefulness. Even outside Quadrifoglio form, the Giulia’s selling point is not just cabin comfort or badge value; it is the feeling from the chassis, the standard 280-hp turbo engine, and the brand’s race-inspired character. Compared with more reserved rivals, the Giulia sells emotion, style, and road feel as much as features.
Sprint is the straightforward entry trim, Ti emphasizes comfort with a sunroof and wood cabin trim, and Ti Veloce gives the 280-hp four-cylinder Giulia a sportier look, more supportive seats, and added traction hardware. Quadrifoglio is the high-performance model, with a 505-hp twin-turbo V6, rear-wheel drive, carbon-fiber body panels, and performance-focused suspension and brakes.
