Alfa Romeo introduces upgraded versions of Giulia, Tonale, and Stelvio

Alfa Romeo is introducing upgraded flagship variants for its Giulia, Tonale, and Stelvio models with the new Tributo Italiano trim levels. These trim levels will be available in three colors: Rosso Alfa (red), Bianco Alfa (white), and Verde Montreal (green), representing the colors of the Italian flag.

The enhancements on the Tributo Italiano models are primarily visual. All three models will feature a black roof, an Italian flag on the external mirror caps, and red Brembo brake calipers. Inside, the Tributo Italiano models will have black leather seats with red contrast stitching, as well as red stitching on the dashboard, door cards, and center console. The headrests will also have a Tributo embroidered logo, and carbon-fiber inserts will be added to the dash.

Additionally, each model will come with new alloy wheel designs. The Tonale will have 20-inch wheels, the Stelvio will have 21-inch wheels, and the Giulia will have 19-inch wheels.

The Tonale small SUV will receive further Tributo styling elements, including body-colored exterior enhancements such as side skirts, wheel arches, and front and rear bumper inserts.

All Tributo models will come with top-of-the-line standard equipment, including adaptive dampers, heated and cooled seats, dual-zone climate control, a heated steering wheel with aluminum paddle-shifters, and a 14-speaker premium Harman Kardon sound system.

In Europe, the Tributo Italiano variants will have different powertrain options. The Giulia and Stelvio ranges will offer a 206kW 2.0-liter turbocharged petrol engine and a 118kW 2.2-liter turbocharged diesel engine. The Tonale Tributo Italiano, on the other hand, will be available with either a 118kW 1.5-liter turbocharged petrol engine or a more powerful 203kW 1.3-liter turbocharged plug-in hybrid.

Alfa Romeo has already started taking orders for the Tributo Italiano models in Europe, and deliveries in Australia are expected to begin in the second half of 2024. Local pricing for these models is yet to be confirmed.
