Alfa Romeo launches further special models
QUADRIFOGLIO VERSIONS In the Super Sport special edition, the Giulia and Stelvio model pair commemorate Alfa Romeo's first victory in the legendary Mille Miglia road race. Only 450 units will be produced together.
Alfa Romeo is commemorating the brand's first victory in the Mille Miglia with two limited-edition special models. Only 275 examples of the Giulia Quadrifoglio Super Sport will be produced, and the number of Stelvio Quadrifoglio Super Sport models is even limited to 175. The Super Sport designation of the two 520 hp special models is a tribute to the Alfa Romeo 6C 1500 Super Sport. Giuseppe Campari won the Mille Miglia in April 1928 with a racing car of this type. It was the first of a total of eleven victories for the Alfa Romeo works team in the 1000-mile road race from Brescia to Rome and back.
Special models in detail
The two special models are characterized by the redesigned Quadrifoglio logo and the additional carbon fibre components, such as the caps of the exterior mirrors. The roof of the new models is optionally made of this lightweight composite material. Further distinguishing features are the dark alloy wheels with diameters of 19 and 21 inches respectively. The body colors Rosso Etna, Nero Vulcano and Bianco Alfa are available.
The Super Sport models are powered by the 2.9-liter V6 engine, which delivers 520 hp and transmits its power to the rear wheels in the Giulia and to all four wheels in the Stelvio. A mechanical limited slip differential in the rear axle optimizes traction in all driving conditions. The use of carbon for the propshaft, hood, spoiler and side skirts guarantees perfect driving dynamics in the special models, while the exhaust system from Akrapovič ensures an unmistakable sound.
