The major part of the Alfa Romeo Giulietta range is quite fuel efficient. Variants, powered by 2.0-liter diesel engines are, as well, on the lower end of consumption, with economy figures of 4 – 5.2 l/ 100 km (58.8 – 45.23 mpg).

Alfa Romeo has had some bad reputation, when it comes to reliability, and despite it getting better in recent years, the Giulietta model’s reliability reports have not been great. Common issues, that owners experience, are loss of power while driving, engine turning off by itself, electrical problems, increased fuel consumption.
