@@zagatolinoj9991 Thanks for the nice words. I can confirm that we are at no risk of not being invited back if we don't give a positive review, because the manufacturers respect that we have to be independent. A recent example of a car we weren't so keen on was the Honda e:Ny1 (video in our feed). It's proof that we certainly don't hold back if we are not impressed. So when it comes to this Junior, we were as relieved as anybody to see that this Veloce model is a very fun car. All that remains to be seen is if the less sporting Junior variants can retain some of its sparkle. We hope so, and will find out when we driven them later this year 🤞 / Sam

Coupe and sedan sales are at all time low no? Alfa Romeo needs to sell crossovers because it’s what the tasteless masses want. Then they’ll likely copy Porsche’s business strategy: sell a lot of crossovers and use the money to make less profitable sports cars for enthusiasts and maintain the brand image. Alfa fans aren’t giving it enough credit. The Junior is an EV crossover yes, but it’s almost the one sports cars lovers would make if they were forced to. AR is meeting Alfa fans halfway with their crossovers, they’re not just lazy badge swaps.

As an old school Alfa owner, it is very hard to warm to these types of cars. But last year I came close to leasing a new EV for the FBT and luxury car tax exemptions (and other tax benefits of leasing) that are available in Australia. I briefly considered the Tonale until learning that the non plug-in hybrid initially available here was not eligible for the main exemptions. The plug-in version should actually qualify, so this review has me thinking it may be time to revisit a novated lease... (This would also probably be my best chance of convincing my missus to like Alfas - as the car would be used by her mostly and she hates my low-riding, much older and very loud ones).

I've got Buckley's of finding one here in Australia - only maybe 50 RHD versions made it Downunder, and no more than a dozen are still on the road here. But I could live with a 2.0L Twin Spark, or the 2.5L V6 too. I don't think any unicorn 1.8L Turbo Evoluzione versions made it here.

Leaning on voice commands is not a viable substitute for a well thought out user interface. It relies on the voice recognition to be reliable (which it wasn't at the time of review) and not ideal when you're listening to music, having a conversation with a passenger or in the midst of a phone call. Swiping up only works from the very bottom edge of the display which requires too much coordination while driving (horizontal swipes from the edge closest to the driver make more sense) These tweaks can easily be rectified in a software update. /Jamil

It's silly to rag on this car because it shares a motor or parts with other Stellantis stuff. Nobody was complaining when it had Ferrari parts . A bit idiotic. Every car on the planet shares bits with other cars. Even the ultra luxurious Rolls Royce has the same parts you'd find in a 1 series or mini Cooper. Toyota shares the same engines across all it's cars. We all wish the cars we like would have bespoke parts. But then again how many of us can realistically afford a $1 million car? If people paying $500k for Royces or Bentleys don't mind them having bits from cheaper cars. What makes people think they're so special for driving a $30,000 car? I love Alfas, but that doesn't mean I'm special. The engineering that goes onto these cars to make them unique, despite a shared platform is pretty cool. Soon people will start complaining 50% percent of websites are made from wordpress. Good lord, you all need to chill or don't ever buy a car, because they all share bits, with another cheaper brand. Even the $1 million Straedale has a lowly Nettuno engine from Maserati.

In 1962 my father bought a Giulia TI which as a nineteen year old I was allowed to drive occasionally. The car developed only 91bhp from its 1600 cc engine but had beautifully balanced handling and, a rarity in those days, a very slick 5 speed gearbox. Later on I hankered after an Alfasud but ended up buying a Citroën GS estate which was more suitable for my work as a farm vet. Now in my dotage I have a Guilietta 150 bhp Multiair. The Junior has to go some to match the two Alfas that I have experienced in my life. The 280bhp version of the Junior is no doubt a very good car but is too expensive for me, let’s hope the less powerful all electric version retains the same chassis mods that distinguish it from its Stellantis stablemates. PS Most of my cars have been Saabs 99, 900 and finally 9000.

This car is matchless within the competition - more precisely the competition beats it's ass in every way. Junior doesn't have attributes to have good sales: 1/ looks? No thank you i would take lexus or cupra, even Volvo ex30 looks better 2/ engines? 1.2 puretech or electric crap - no thank you! 3/ reliability? Like above - Good luck with unreliable 1.2 puretech (going back to roots I guess), or go with electric crap engines which are much less popular 4/ price? For this price it gives only one advantage - driving experience and only in top version 😂 which can be not enough to compete with others. Competition has lower prices. 5/ Driving? If other cars can offer 80-90% of the fun and have attributes from above I would take them instead. To sum up as stelvio user - #leave_next_stelvio_alone #shame_on_you_for_renault_captur_headlights_and_mitsubishi_asx_scudetto #not_buying_this_crap

Consider these as factory "mods". They exist to differentiate this car from others that share the platform. We get more variety at a cheaper price while manufacturers get to reduce R&D costs. It's a win-win / Jamil

The Alfasud was much better handling than any car in its class with unique engineering in its class with a front flat 4 boxer engine layout, overseen by ex porsche engineer. The new Alfa Romeo Junior is a me too product, with similar engineering layout to any number of EVs,. but more importantly sitting on a non Alfa Romeo only platform shared with the Jeeep Avenger/Fiat 600e; its hybrid version uses a Peugeot engine; This car is nothing to do with Alfa Romeo in my eyes and also has ugly bodywork. Alfa Romeos died in 1986 when Fiat took it over after an illustrious history where for good or bad their cars were designed ground up by Alfa Romeo with Alfa Romeo design/engineering philosophy and innovative and class leading engines and it is these cars that made the car famous. Latterly the ex Ferrari engineers designed Giulia QV has also garnered much praise built on a premium platform, along with the the Stelvio

@@cinch hmmm I’m still not convinced tbh. The price of new cars spiralling out of control. If governments want us to buy EV’s then manufacturers need to bring prices down. £43k for a snazzy Vauxhall Mokka sized car? Come on. Presumably that’s even before options, on road charges, etc? Eye watering prices I’m afraid. As we see, the second hand value of EV’s are plummeting so who’d buy this brand new?? Cars don’t make financial sense, EV’s less so.

The base (Electtrica) model starts at £33,895 (which is already more premium and better looking than the Vauxhall Mokka). The top trim level Veloce (the one we tested) comes in at under £43,000 with the bespoke performance components such as the Torsen LSD, 280HP motor, uprated dampers, springs and performance tyres. So it's actually a pretty good deal. There are more flawed performance hot hatches that cost more than this. / Jamil

@@cinch I mean with all due respect, just under £43k for a small crossover isn’t really a good deal. Most of us mere mortals don’t have £43k to spend on a small car. PCP deals won’t be that competitive since residual values on EV’s are falling quicker than a baby grand from the Empire State Building. I’m not just highlighting this car, even a Yaris or Jazz are both coming in at just under £30k! £30k for a supermini, really?? Manufacturers are actually taking the consumer for a ride, hope you like the pun 😉 Beautiful as the Alfa is, a good it is not.
