The new special edition is based on the Giulia and Stelvio Quadrifoglio, and features plenty of carbon fiber
Alfa Romeo has introduced the exclusive Giulia and Stelvio Quadrifoglio Collezione. They’re being billed as global special editions that celebrate the Quadrifoglio, which was first used on the 1923 RL race car. It then graced road-going models starting in 1963.
Starting outside, the sedan and crossover wear unique Rosso Collezione paint jobs that are inspired by the Rosso Villa D’Este offered on the 33 Stradale.
Both are similar, but Alfa Romeo said the Giulia has a darker appearance “in tune with its soul of extreme sportiness.” The Stelvio, on the other hand, has a “brighter and more open reading of red.”

Buyers will also find carbon fiber mirror caps and a carbon fiber roof on the Giulia. We can also see dark wheels and a carbon ceramic braking system that features burnished anodized calipers with red Alfa Romeo badging. They’re joined by an Akrapovič exhaust system with carbon fiber accents.
Moving inside, the special editions are notable for featuring carbon fiber shelled Sparco seats wrapped in leather and Alcantara upholstery. They sport red contrast stitching as well as “1 di 63 Collezione” embroidery on the headrests. Elsewhere, there’s carbon fiber trim and a leather-wrapped dashboard.
Power comes from a familiar twin-turbo 2.9-liter V6 engine that produces 513 hp (382 kW / 520 PS) and 442 lb-ft (600 Nm) of torque. It enables the standard Giulia Quadrifoglio to accelerate from 0-62 mph (0-100 km/h) in 3.9 seconds, before hitting a top speed of 191 mph (308 km/h).
Production will be limited to 63 units and the Quadrifoglio Collezione will be offered in China, Japan, Europe, and the Middle East.
