The Alfa Romeo Giulietta was an automobile manufactured by the Italian car maker Alfa Romeo from 1954 to 1965.
The first Giulietta model was a coupé, the Giulietta Sprint, introduced in late 1954. This was followed by a sedan in spring 1955 and in mid 1955, the open two-seat Giulietta Spider, featuring convertible bodywork by Pininfarina.
The Giulietta used an engine of 1290 cc, with light alloy cylinder block and twin overhead camshafts. The original Giulietta engine produced a power output of 53 bhp in the sedan and 80 bhp in the Giulietta Sprint.[1] This was to be increased to 100 bhp in later sporting models such as the Giulietta Sprint Speciale and the Giulietta Sprint SZ (Sprint Zagato).

[edit] Nuova Giulietta
In 1977, Alfa Romeo introduced the Nuova Giulietta. This was not a development of the original Giulietta of 1954-1965, but a design based on the Alfa Romeo Alfetta chassis (including its rear mounted transaxle).
