The Alfa Romeo Giulia (Type 952) is an upcoming compact executive car model by Alfa Romeo. It will replace the 159, and it is planned to be unveiled on June 24, 2015[1] to celebrate the 105th anniversary of the company. The final name of the car has yet to be confirmed.[2]

The launch of the Giulia has been delayed several times, reportedly due to the design being sent back to the drawing board by Fiat CEO Sergio Marchionne.[3]

Alfa have confirmed a new 1.8 litre 300 PS (221 kW; 296 hp) engine, which may replace the Alfa Romeo V6, with production of this new engine starting in the next few years.
