Record summary
What to know first
Every Giulia trim now shares the same 280-horsepower turbo four after the high-performance Quadrifoglio was discontinued; Veloce is now an appearance/handling package instead of its own trim.
The Quadrifoglio (formerly the 505-hp V6 performance flagship) is discontinued, so its specs are not a current option.
