In November 1977 Italian car maker Alfa
Romeo introduced an all new Giulietta as the successor of the Alfa
Romeo Alfa Romeo Giulia (1962-1977). The car was named after the
original Giulietta (1954-1965) but it was a completely new design
based on the Alfa Romeo Alfetta chassis. The Giulietta was only
offered in 4-door sedan form.
At the introduction two engines were
available: 1.3 L with 70 kW and 1.6 L with 80 kW. In May 1979 a 1.8 L
engine with 90 kW was added and in 1980 the Super Giulietta with a 2
litre engine with 96 kW appeared.
