Alfa Romeo Giulia Sprint, Ti, Veloce & More

Last updated August 4, 2026

Alfa Romeo Giulia

The Alfa Romeo Giulia lineup starts with Sprint or the base Giulia, which delivers the car’s core 280-hp turbo power, leather-trimmed cabin, and sporty rear-drive character. Sport adds a more aggressive look, while Ti is the comfort-focused middle choice with upgrades such as a dual-pane sunroof and heated steering wheel. The upper four-cylinder branch takes several forms: Lusso and Ti Lusso lean toward traditional luxury; Ti Sport, Ti Sport Carbon, Ti Veloce, Veloce, Estrema, and Competizione add sharper styling or handling hardware; Intensa and Tributo Italiano emphasize special-edition design. Quadrifoglio and its 100th Anniversary, Carbon Edition, and Super Sport versions make the major performance jump to a 505-hp twin-turbo V6 and dedicated braking, suspension, and aerodynamic hardware.

Frequently asked questions

What does the Sprint trim include?

In the 2021–2024 lineup, Sprint is the everyday entry trim with the 280-hp turbo engine, leather power front seats, navigation and driver aids. Newer Sprint models also gained features such as heated front and rear seats and a digital gauge display.

What does the Ti add over the Sprint?

In recent multi-trim lineups, Ti adds a more comfort-focused feel over Sprint. Its defining upgrades include a dual-pane sunroof, heated steering wheel and richer cabin and exterior details, while keeping the same 280-hp turbo four-cylinder.

What is the difference between the Ti and Veloce?

Ti favors everyday luxury, while Veloce is the sportier four-cylinder trim. In newer lineups, Veloce adds a limited-slip rear differential, more supportive sport seats, aluminum paddle shifters and more aggressive body details. Both use the 280-hp turbo engine.

Which Giulia trim is the comfort-focused choice?

Ti is the balanced comfort choice in recent multi-trim years. Lusso and Ti Lusso go further with richer leather and more traditional luxury trim, while Intensa adds an especially detailed leather cabin and a gold-and-tan design theme.

Which Giulia trim should I look for if I want sporty handling without the V6?

Look first at Veloce, Ti Sport, Estrema or Competizione, depending on the model year. These keep the 280-hp four-cylinder but add driver-focused equipment. Estrema and Competizione stand out for pairing a limited-slip differential with adjustable suspension.

What is the Giulia Sport trim?

On earlier Giulias, Sport is mainly a styling step above the base car. It adds a more aggressive front and rear appearance and gloss-black exterior trim while retaining the regular 280-hp turbo engine and core cabin technology.

Why do some used Giulias say Ti Sport while others say Veloce?

The name changed with the trim ladder. Veloce replaced Ti Sport for 2022, but both represent the sporty four-cylinder step below Quadrifoglio. Equipment varies by year, though limited-slip differentials, sport seats, paddle shifters and sharper styling define the role.

What is the difference between Ti Lusso and Ti Sport?

On early Giulias, Ti Lusso is the comfort-first version with richer leather, genuine wood trim and a warmer cabin. Ti Sport takes the opposite approach with more supportive seats, paddle shifters, sportier bodywork and a limited-slip differential on later examples.

How is Estrema different from Veloce?

For 2023, Estrema builds on the sporty Veloce formula with adjustable suspension, a limited-slip differential, carbon-fiber trim and Harman Kardon audio. It is the more aggressive and richly equipped four-cylinder choice below Quadrifoglio.

What makes the Competizione trim different?

Competizione is the fully equipped 2024 four-cylinder Giulia. It combines sport seats and a limited-slip differential with adjustable suspension, Harman Kardon audio and leather across the upper dashboard and doors.

What is the difference between Intensa and Tributo Italiano?

Both are later special editions with the 280-hp turbo engine, adjustable suspension, premium audio and distinctive trim. Intensa emphasizes gold exterior details and a tan-accented leather cabin. Tributo Italiano uses darker trim, red accents, sport seats, a sunroof and a limited-slip differential.

How much more performance does Quadrifoglio have than Veloce?

Quadrifoglio is a major mechanical step up, not just an equipment package. It uses a 505-hp twin-turbo V6 instead of Veloce’s 280-hp turbo four, and adds rear-wheel drive, adjustable suspension, larger Brembo brakes, active aerodynamics and extensive carbon-fiber hardware.

What is special about the Quadrifoglio Super Sport?

Super Sport is the final limited U.S. run of the V6 Quadrifoglio. It keeps the 505-hp engine and adjustable suspension, then adds revised limited-slip-differential tuning, woven carbon-fiber cabin trim and numbered embroidered front headrests.

Are the limited-edition Quadrifoglio models faster than the regular Quadrifoglio?

They use the same 505-hp twin-turbo V6 as the regular Quadrifoglio. Their main differences are commemorative details, extra carbon fiber, special cabin trim or added equipment. Super Sport also has distinct limited-slip-differential tuning.
