The Alfa Romeo Giulia Sedan was produced
between 1962 and 1978 through many model
variations.
The Giulia Super weighed about
1000 kg. It was equipped with a twin overhead
cam alloy engine of 1.6 litre (1570 cc)
capacity and power outputs around 100 bhp (75 kW),
and a 5-speed manual transmission. This made for a top
speed of 170 km/h (106 mph) back in the late
1960s and early 1970s. 0 to 100 km/h (62 mph) took about
12 seconds.
The styling was quite straight forward,
but with a great amount of detail. The engine bay, cabin
and boot were all square shaped. But the grill, the
rooflines and details on the bonnet and boot made for an
integrated design from bumper to bumper. It was also a
car with a particularly low drag co-efficient for that
era. For example, the drag coefficient of the Giulia was
lower than that of a Porsche 911 from the same
period. (ref.
