Yes, the Alfa Romeo Giulietta is still technically on sale in 2021. We didn’t think it was either. But now the local arm is announcing a final send-off special edition for the current-generation model, called the Edizione Finale.
The special edition is based on the Veloce variant and features a 1750cc turbo-petrol four-cylinder engine, producing 177kW and 340Nm. This is sent through a front-wheel drive system via a six-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission. In the case of the Veloce, 0-100km/h is claimed in 6.0 seconds while the official fuel consumption average is 6.8L/100km.
Unique to the Edizione Finale is a set of yellow-painted brakes, yellow highlights for the front and rear bumper bars, and carbon-fibre-style front grille, side skirts and side mirrors, along with a Magneti Marelli ‘Elaborazioni 1919’ sports exhaust system to make sure the zesty hatch is heard from afar. There’s also 18-inch alloy wheels finished in ‘dark miron’.

Italian car-maker says arrivederci to its smallest model with strictly limited Edizione Finale hot hatch
The Alfa Romeo Giulietta Edizione Finale has been released in Australia, marking a swansong limited-edition for the Italian car-maker’s long-running small hatchback.
Strictly limited to just 35 examples and available now, the final edition of the Giulietta is priced at $48,950 plus on-road costs – $6000 more than the most potent Veloce grade on which it’s based.
For the extra money, the Edizione Finale adds yellow (instead of red) brake callipers, yellow external trim inserts and carbonfibre-look elements for the grille, side skirts and mirror caps.
