New Alfa Romeo Giulia SWB Zagato – A Sleek 2-Door Coupe

Показать описание

Following a comprehensive teaser campaign, Alfa Romeo and Zagato have taken the wraps off the Giulia SWB. As the name implies, the one-of-a-kind car started out in life as a sports sedan before its wheelbase was shortened to create a sleek two-door coupe with no back seats. The donor car was a spicy Quadrifoglio model with the V6, but the Italian coachbuilder upgraded the car to the GTAm specification while retaining the six-speed manual gearbox.

The front-end styling is a mélange of old and new since it takes inspiration from the Alfa Romeo SZ while using the latest three-point LED headlight design of the 2023 Giulia facelift. The Kammback rear design takes after the Giulia TZ while the GTAm's massive rear wing has been removed to create a cleaner appearance.

A beefy diffuser hosts double vertical fins flanking the dual exhaust tips to echo the super sedan in its "Gran Turismo Alleggerita modificata" flavor. In typical Zagato fashion, the Giulia SWB has a double bubble roof and a vented hood. Aside from removing the rear doors, the coachbuilder also got rid of the conventional handles of the front doors to declutter the side profile. There's a button mounted on the B-pillar to open the doors. Just about every body panel has been redesigned and is made from carbon fiber.

At the heart of the one-off Giulia coupe is a twin-turbo 2.9-liter V6 bumped to GTAm spec, meaning it pumps out 533 horsepower (398 kilowatts) and 600 Newton-meters (442 pound-feet) of torque. Unlike the original GTAm sold only with an eight-speed automatic, power is routed to the wheels via the Quadrifoglio's six-speed manual transmission.

If you're wondering how the car came to be, Zagato wanted to celebrate 100 years since its first collaboration with Alfa Romeo. In 2021, a century after the 1921 Tipo G1, the project was green-lighted. The Milan-based design house was then approached by a German customer with an appetite for special cars. He not only owns a SZ and an 8C Competizione but also several Zagato-penned Aston Martin models and the latest products from Alfa Romeo.

After taking part in a photo shoot at the "La Pista" circuit in Arese, the shortened Giulia Coupe will be handed over to its rightful owner. Pricing details have not been disclosed but it must've cost a fortune considering a Giulia GTAm retailed for nearly $200,000 at home in Italy.

La Zagato ha sempre valorizzato, più di tutti, il carattere dell' Alfa. Speriamo di vederla presto per strada.

Hi I have Stelvio from 2018. I bought it november 2021 with 50k km used, now after 80k km still happy like day one. I changed the exhaust put a ragazoon and made a little tuning just mapping the engine console. Now it has 320 hp and 500 Nm, and its running much better. Never had a problem with fuel pump or something, so to all the people saying this is a very unreliable car, you better first own one before you comment. And I forgot I got a a lot of attention here in the streets of Switzerland😊

Everything about this vehicle is gorgeous. The slick head and tail lights how they're contoured to the body is so on point.

I mean the negative comments here on some of the styling being similar to other vehicles, well yeah! That is how it works folks....can't reinvent the wheel, you can only make the best wheel.

Zagato designed this car and did a great job! It's stunning and unique. It's a modern spin on a vintage classic. They nailed it!!
