The new Alfa Romeo Giulietta

The Alfa Romeo Giulietta, (Type 940) previously known as Alfa Romeo 149 or Milano is the replacement for the Alfa Romeo 147.

Giulietta production started towards the end of 2009 and was introduced at the March 2010 Geneva Motor Show.

In a viability plan forwarded to the US Government in February 2009, Chrysler (a partner of Alfa Romeo parent company Fiat) reported that the 147 replacement would come to market as the Milano and that it could be built in the USA.

However, this name was recently dismissed following Fiat’s decision to move Alfa Romeo’s Centro Stile to Turin from Milan – the management wanted to soften the focus on this episode that actually closes the glorious partnership between Alfa Romeo and the city of Milan.

Since a considerable number of Alfa Romeo customers are those aged 27–40, the absence of a three-door derivative tends to be a reasonable choice.

This is because this age bracket tends to be more family-oriented, not only looking for sporty inclination in their cars, but also for space. Since the Giulietta will only be available in a 5-door version, the new Alfa MiTo will fill the vacancy of a small three-door car for the make.

The Giulietta is supposed to help Alfa Romeo regain its footing in the leading US market where the brand has just returned. For this particular market the automatic gearbox may be the standard option. European pricing will be around €20,000 for the base model.

2010 Toyota 4Runner Trail Grade Full Test

Climbing up the near-vertical dirt trail in the all-new 2010 Toyota 4Runner Trail Grade seems pretty easy, at least until we get to the hill-climb’s crest.

The trail is actually too steep to walk up and the front tire on the driver side starts losing traction and the front end begins to slide off the trail toward a drop-off that borders each side of the incline.

After stopping the SUV on the hill’s face (and taking a few deep breaths), we engage the push-button Crawl Control on its most aggressive setting, grab on tight to the steering wheel and take our foot completely off the brake.

This allows the Crawl Control to modulate throttle and traction control at each wheel to maximize grip up the hill at a slow and controlled pace, allowing us to just focus on steering away from the cliff’s edge.
