    Alfa Romeo To Showcase New And Limited Variants Of Their Models At Geneva

    Alfa Romeo is set to be out in full force at this year’s Geneva Motor Show. The Italian automaker will be showcasing at least five new variants of their model range and at least one surprise.

    The first pair of cars that Alfa Romeo will present to the world are the new, limited edition ‘Alfa Romeo Racing’ versions of the Giulia and Stelvio, in celebration of the company’s partnership with Sauber in Formula 1. Both models will be sporting paint jobs similar to the current Alfa Romeo Racing C38 F1 car. In the case of the Giulia QV ‘Alfa Romeo Racing’, Alfa has given it a carbon roof, 19 inch wheels and some lovely Rosso calipers. You will also have carbon-ceramic brakes as a standard option. The engine has also been tweaked a bit. No numbers have been released, but the 2.9-litre V6 has been fettled with by Alfa Romeo and will be paired with a titanium Akrapovic exhaust system.

    In the interior, you’ll find some Sparco carbon-backed bucket seats with red stitching, a carbon Mopar transmission knob and a leather or Alcantara steering wheel.

    Alfa Romeo will be showing the Ti versions of the Giulia and Stelvio in Geneva. In the case of the Stelvio Ti, it will have newer rear lights and get more generous offerings of carbon fibre around the car. It will also have 20 inch wheels paired with yellow calipers, gloss black exhaust pipes and window lining as well as privacy glass. The car will have the standard 4-cylinder, 2-litre turbo engine which puts out 276 horses (206 kW) mated to the 8-speed automatic gearbox.

    The Giulietta will also be getting some attention. Alfa are showing the new Executive and Veloce versions of their hatchback. The Executive show car will feature a colour known as ‘Visconti Green’ with a dark brown interior with various satin finishes around the car. The Veloce will serve as the performance version of the Giulietta, with a 2-litre diesel engine that will push out 167 horsepower (125 kW) and no manual offering. Despite this being the ‘performance’ variant of the Giulietta, it would be very exciting to see a proper hot-hatch offering from Alfa Romeo. A Giulietta Quadrifoglio, anybody?

    • The Audi RS3 is one of two ultimate ‘mega hatches’, and probably the best of the breed. Its astonishing pace and theatrical engine combine with huge grip and more of a driver focus than previous generations. It’s also a brilliant daily.

Are you parting with R1.3m (or more) for one? Let us know in the comments below.

    • Menacing Frozen Brooklyn Grey Metallic BMW M4 CSL sold by @bmwbryanston spotted in Linksfield recently by @thomasovitale 😎

Just 15 of these came into the country priced at R3.57m.

Would you prefer this or the freshly revealed M3 CS?

    • The BMW i4 M50 is quite possibly the best EV we have had the pleasure of testing.

It's superbly comfortable but at the simple touch of a button, it switches from tourer to tornado and you find yourself instantly doing speeds you should not be doing.

While not all EVs will have the same refinement or scintillating performance, this was both relaxing and thrilling to drive.

The Gran Coupé is a handsome car with a sense of sleek length and disguises its hatchback as a booted saloon rear end and that M Portimao Blue metallic paint certainly garnered a lot of positive attention.

Compared with the BMW iX it’s less of a show-stopper, but comes with a much more attractive price tag – and while the i4 is still quite the financial investment (R1,6m) we feel it gives you excellent value in return.

Yes, we did have a few charging issues (Eskom) and if you don't have a Wallbox charger at home filling up with petrol is MUCH easier. However, that being said if you’re looking for an outstanding driving experience both on the twisties and on the highway, this is definitely worth considering if you have decided to make the jump to the electric car.

    • The totally bonkers Ferrari 812 Competizione was spotted in Bryanston today by Brad Ainge.

It actually makes the F12tdf look quite tame in comparison. Which would you rather have?

Priced around R14m depending on spec.

    • Our time has come to an end with the most potent version of Mzansi’s favourite bakkie, the new Toyota Hilux GR-Sport.

The 2.8-litre turbo diesel powerplant has been tweaked to push out 165kW and 550 Nm thanks to an updated ECU which also responsible for the much needed revised mapping of the six-speed auto.

The sporty Hilux gets new monotube shocks as well as stiffer coil springs which make the bakkie a lot more settled at higher speed and provide great feedback on some of the twisty bits. If you don’t have a full load at the back however, you might find it a tad too stiff and rather twitchy for day to day driving. 

Inside you get a load of sporty touches including “carbon fibre” trim pieces but the highlight has to be the race inspired front seats complete with Alcantara inserts and some GR badging on the headrests. 

For the Hilux customers, this is a welcome addition to the range as the exterior and interior aesthetics align very neatly with the GR brand.

Yours from R891,400. Are you picking this or the Legend RS?
