What's the news?
Alfa Romeo is gearing up for the 172 registration period with the launch of a new 2.9 per cent APR PCP finance offer, which could land you a new Giulia saloon for as little as €436 per month. There's also the launch of the new Giulia Veloce petrol turbo with its 280hp engine, and the impending arrival of the new Stelvio SUV.
On the Giulia, buyers can also upgrade their spec at very little cost, with both the Super Sport trim (which includes 18-inch alloy wheels, leather upholstery, Bi-Xenon headlights, tinted windows, painted brake calipers and steering column mounted gear shift paddles) and the Super Lux trim (which comes with 18-inch alloy wheels, leather upholstery, Bi-Xenon headlights, adaptive cruise control, a rear view camera and power folding exterior mirrors) starting from €42,166.
Both the MiTo and Giulietta hatchbacks are available on a 3.9 per cent PCP plan, with extra equipment for their Super Sport models too. A Giulietta Super Sport comes with 17-inch alloy wheels, tinted windows, sports pedals, fabric and Alcantara sports seats, side skirts and a sporty rear bumper with sports exhaust for €25,321, while a €21,266 Mito Supersport comes with sports leather upholstery, heated front seats, dual zone air conditioning, tinted windows and red painted brake calipers.
Paul Hunt, Managing Director, Fiat Chrysler Automobiles Ireland DAC, said: "Coming hot on the heels of the recently launched Giulia saloon, the new Alfa Romeo Stelvio will be the marque's first SUV Built on the same Giorgio platform as the Giulia, which will also underpin a mass of future Alfas and Maserati's; its mission is for an SUV to evoke the same emotions as a true performance car."
Irish pricing and specification will be announced in Autumn 2017, with the first models arriving around October.
