The Alfa Romeo Giulietta engine range has been revised to offer improved economy and emissions across the entire petrol and diesel engine range.
The 1.6-litre JTDM-2 turbo diesel engine benefits from a reduction in emissions from 104g/km to 99g/km and, with the addition of a variable-geometry turbo charger and low rolling-resistance tyres, it also brings an increase in power from 103bhp to 118bhp.
The drop in emissions results in a 1% BIK reduction to 17% and the annual Road Fund Licence is now £0.
The uprated engine, which complies with strict EU6 emissions regulations, boosts top speed by 6mph to 121mph, where legally permitted, and improves the 0–62mph by 1.3 seconds to just 10.0 seconds.
At the same time, the new Giulietta 1.6-litre JTDM-2 can now return 74.3mpg on the official combined fuel economy cycle, a significant improvement over the 70.6 recorded by the current 1.6-litre JTDM2 103bhp engine.
Every engine is now compliant with the latest Euro 6 regulations and (with the exception of the recently-introduced 2.0-litre JTDM-2turbo diesel 148bhp).
Pricing for the Alfa Romeo Giulietta range remains unchanged, with pricing starting from £18,450.
