Compare the Alfa Romeo Giulia to the Audi A4 to see which version is right for you. Then find your favorite Giulia at Criswell Alfa Romeo.
The compact executive car segment is a surprisingly steep one, packed full of sporty, luxurious small car options that are as stylish as they are comfortable and packed full of premium content both inside and out. Our entry into that segment is, of course, the Alfa Romeo Giulia, which has been around since the 2016 model year. We thought we’d see how it measures up to one of its biggest competitors by pitting it against a vehicle that has had a couple of extra decades to establish its name, the Audi A4.

Advantages of the Giulia
Despite the Audi A4 model’s longer tenure, the table above shows that the Alfa Romeo Giulia has a pretty big leg up on it in many different aspects. The two sedans’ base models generate vastly different amounts of power, as evidenced in the first two rows. The Giulia surpasses the A4 by nearly 100 horses, with an exact advantage ringing in at 92 horsepower. In terms of torque, the advantage isn’t quite as steep, but 70 pound-feet of torque is still a pretty sizeable difference.
Of course, it isn’t a big surprise that the less-powerful model is more efficient than the other; however, what is surprising, is that the Audi A4 only manages an extra three miles per gallon combined across highway and city driving. You’ll save a bit of pocket change at the pump, but do those pennies and nickels make up for the vast difference in power?
If you’re asking yourself the same question, maybe the final row of the table will help you make a decision. All of that power turns into performance ratings, and when starting from a complete stop, the Alfa Romeo Giulia gets up to 60 miles per hour 1.6 seconds faster than the Audi A4, which would feel like an eternity in a side-by-side race.
