Alfa Romeo reveals new flagship variants of Giulia, Tonale and Stelvio

Alfa Romeo’s Giulia, Tonale and Stelvio will receive upgraded flagship variants with the Italian manufacturer confirming new Tributo Italiano trim levels across their respective ranges.

The Tributo Italiano trim levels slot in above the previous Veloce flagship and celebrate Alfa Romeo’s distinctly Italian heritage.

Tributo Italiano variants will be offered in one of three colours – Rosso Alfa (red), Bianco Alfa (white), and Verde Montreal (green) – mirroring the colours of the Italian flag.

The enhancements on each model are largely visual with all three models featuring a black roof, an Italian flag on external mirror caps and red Brembo brake calipers.

Inside, all Tributo Italiano models will be differentiated by black leather seats with red contrast stitching, and red stitching on the dashboard, door cards and centre console. The headrests feature a Tributo embroidered logo along with additional carbon-fibre inserts on the dash.

Each model will also benefit from new alloy wheel designs, 20-inch on the Tonale, 21-inch on the Stelvio and 19-inch for the Giulia.

The Tonale small SUV will get additional Tributo styling elements including body-coloured exterior enhancements – side skirts, wheel arches as well as front and rear bumper inserts.

All Tributo models are fitted with range-topping levels of standard equipment: adaptive dampers, heated and cooled seats, dual-zone climate control, a heated steering wheel with aluminium paddle-shifters, and a 14-speaker premium Harman Kardon sound system.

Additionally, both the Tonale and Stelvio SUVs are fitted with a powered tailgate as standard.

In Europe, powertrain options for the Tributo Italiano variants include the 206kW 2.0-litre turbocharged petrol and 118kW 2.2-litre turbocharged diesel found in both the Giulia and Stelvio ranges while the Tonale Tributo Italiano will be offered with either a 118kW 1.5-litre turbocharged petrol or the more potent 203kW 1.3-litre turbocharged plug-in hybrid.

Alfa Romeo has opened the order books in Europe while Australian deliveries are expected to start in the second half of 2024 with local pricing still to be confirmed.
