Â
Are you in the market for a luxury sedan? If so, you may be wondering whether to buy an Alfa Romeo Giulia or an Audi A4. Both cars are in the same price range and compete in terms of quality, performance and efficiency, comfort and utility, infotainment, and technology.Â
So which one should you choose?
Exterior
Let's start by comparing the looks of both cars. The Giulia is a beautiful car, and it definitely has an Italian flair about it. It looks more like a sports car than a luxury sedan. The Audi, on the other hand, is more understated and elegant. It's not as flashy as the Giulia, but it's still a very handsome car.
Size
The Giulia is a bit shorter and narrower than the Audi in terms of dimensions. The Audi is taller and wider and has a more traditional luxury sedan shape. It also has a lower profile, which makes it look more sporty.
With 42.4 inches of front-seat legroom, the Alfa Romeo is slightly more spacious than the Audi, which has 41.3 inches of front-seat legroom.
Performance and Efficiency
Both cars are very fast and efficient. The Giulia has a 2.0-liter V6 engine that generates 280 horsepower, while the Audi has a 2.0-liter TFSI engine that produces 201 horsepower. So the Alfa Romeo is more powerful.
It's also slightly more fuel-efficient in city driving, with an EPA-rated rating of 24 mpg city/33 highway, compared to Audi's 23 mpg city/33 highway.
Maneuverability
The Giulia is the clear winner when it comes to handling and maneuverability. It handles like a dream and is very easy to steer. The Audi is good, but it can't compare to the Alfa Romeo.
For example, the Giulia's turning diameter is just 35.5 feet, compared to Audi's 38.1-foot turning diameter.
Safety
Both cars are equipped with a host of safety features, such as airbags, anti-lock brakes, and traction control. Audi's German engineering is usually most reliable when it comes to safety. Still, Alfa Romeo is also a very safe car, up to date with the latest safety technologies.
