The new Alfa Romeo Giulia GTA - Excellent power-to-weight ratio

But engine power alone is not enough to guarantee exceptional performance. And so the engineers worked meticulously on reducing the weight by up to 100 kilograms. Even in the basic Alfa Romeo Giulia Quadrifoglio model, the cardan shaft, bonnet and roof are made of carbon fiber. On the Alfa Romeo Giulia GTA, the front bumper, the front fenders and the widenings of the front fenders are made of the ultra-light material. In addition, the driver and front passenger seats are based on a shell made of carbon fiber. Aluminum is used in the engine, doors and chassis, among other things. Various weight-optimized composite materials also represent lightweight construction at the factory. The side and rear windows of the Alfa Romeo Giulia GTAm are made of lightweight polycarbonate. The combination of reduced weight and engine output increased to 397 kW (540 PS) results in exceptional driving performance. Thanks to the launch mode, the new Alfa Romeo Giulia GTA accelerates from standstill to 100 km / h in just 3.6 seconds. The model version GTA offers five seats as a super sports car for everyday use. The Alfa Romeo Giulia GTAm is designed as a street-legal two-seater with a roll bar in the rear. "
