Two refreshed Alfa Romeos – Giulia and Stelvio – will soon debut in Polish showrooms. Thanks to modernization, the “Italians” received not only visual changes to hide their age, but also several accessories, such as 12.3-inch digital clocks. The only question is whether it won’t be enough for customers to swallow the bitter pill of a new, higher price.
Alfa Romeo Giulia 2023. Facelift prices
The increase can be seen already in the example of the difference in gasoline – the entry threshold is now 230,000 ant. zlotys. That’s how the Italians paid the price of the basic version of the Super with a 2.0 GME Turbo engine with 280 hp. And this is the only variant powered by such fuel, because the weak, 200-horsepower “petrol” disappeared from the offer. At this time, Alfa Romeo has not decided to refresh the 510 horsepower version of the Quadrifoglio, but they have not yet said a firm “no”.
The second engine is a 210 hp 2.2 JTDM diesel unit, which was left out just so that the Giulia would not be left with a palette consisting of only one engine. Why do we think so? Due to the high price, which is as much as 281 thousand. PLN for the base Ti variant with this engine! A petrol Giulia with such equipment costs PLN 252,000. PLN – many people willing to pay around PLN 30,000 PLN for a weak engine for 70 hp is impossible to be.
