Unique looks, smooth engine, Q2 e-diff's added traction.
Relatively high CO2 emissions, poor steering, limited rear space, possible build issues.
A decent 'alternative' choice and, at present, it is the most competitive car in Alfa's line-up. It's worthy of consideration.




Against more down-to-earth rivals like from Ford and Vauxhall and even Volkswagen Alfa claims class-best residuals of around 48% after three years and 36,000 miles (a Fiesta retains around 38%).
Unfortunately, it's outclassed by the astonishing 59-62% residuals on the Mini - one of the lowest depreciating cars on the market.
