Alfa Romeo Giulia Quadrifoglio has always been a supercar disguised as a four-door sports sedan. What makes it particularly great is the combination of the exceptional steering and the 503-horsepower V-six. When they are at Alfa Romeo announced to the public that the next version of this car will be electric, real hysteria reigned among the fans of the brand.
In an interview with Coach is the CEO of Alfa Romeo, Jean-Philippe Learned, tried to calm everyone affected by the said news. A new generation Julie will be an electric vehicle that will produce 345 horsepower in the base model, but there will also be a version Veloce with more than 790 horsepower. But it will be a real treat Quadrifolio with 1.000 horsepower, which is almost twice as much as the current model.
It will be in the most powerful version Quadrifolio most likely to get four-wheel drive and will use a similar drive system to the new one Maserati Granturismo Folgore, which uses three electric motors and the option of torque vectoring. Learned also made it known that the range of the electric vehicle will be about 700 kilometers, which is more than comparable to the current ranges of cars with internal combustion engines.
Executive Director of the Alfa Romeo brand he also emphasized the importance of switching to fully electric drives. "We made the switch because there was no other way," he said. "If we didn't do that, the Alfa Romeo brand would be dead." And he admits that the switch was not an easy decision. "We want Alfa Romeo drivers to still feel everything that has adorned the brand so far."
