Alfa Romeo Junior VELOCE: Unveiling the New 280hp Electric Motor

The Alfa Romeo engineering development team has finalized the dynamic development of the Alfa Romeo Junior, marking the debut of its new 280 hp 100% electric motor. This innovative electric motor aligns with the power output of the Giulia, Stelvio, and Tonale VELOCE models, offering an exhilarating driving experience.

Performance and Engineering Excellence

The Alfa Romeo Junior, equipped with a 280 hp (207 kW) electric motor, has been rigorously tested on the same circuits where Alfa Romeo engineers validated the dynamic design targets. This motor is set to make its debut in the Veloce version of the new compact sports car, which represents the sportiest configuration in the lineup.

Distinctive Sportiness

The Alfa Romeo Junior is designed to maximize performance, road handling, and driving pleasure. Key features include:

• Direct Steering: Ad-hoc calibration ensures the most direct steering in the segment (14.6), enhancing precision and road holding.
• Sports Suspension: Lowered by 25 mm for improved handling.
• Anti-Roll Bars: Extra sporty front and rear anti-roll bars for quick cornering and high grip levels.
• Braking System: Front discs over 380 mm with four-piston monobloc calipers.
• Torsen Differential: Provides optimal traction in all conditions.
• High-Performance Tyres: 20-inch tyres specific to the electric vehicle, offering extensive grip.

Development and Testing

The development of the Alfa Romeo Junior has been undertaken by the same team of engineers responsible for iconic projects such as the 4C, 8C, Giulia and Stelvio Quadrifoglio, Giulia GTA, and the ongoing 33 Stradale. The car has been tested on the Langhe circuit at Balocco Proving Ground, where all Alfa Romeo road cars from the last few decades have been developed. This circuit is also where the historic Alfa Corse team fine-tuned their racing cars for international motor racing events, including F1, DTM, and Super Turismo.
