2021 Alfa Romeo Giulia vs 2021 Cadillac CT4: Performance Inside and Out

Competition among performance sedans is increasing with constant innovations and pressure to keep up with the market. The influence of Formula One and other racing technologies gives several brands an edge, but the Alfa Romeo Giulia just may be the best recipient of these technologies. With class-leading power, each Giulia has much more to offer. The 2021 lineup offers better options packages, more standard equipment, a new trim model and more. 

Here, we compare the Giulia to a close competitor-the 2021 Cadillac CT4. 

The 2021 Alfa Romeo Giulia expresses its racing DNA

Two powertrains are the foundation of Giuila's industry-recognized engine leadership in the segment. The Giulia Sprint, Giulia Ti and Giulia Ti Sport feature the standard 2.0-litre turbo four-cylinder. Surpassing many competitors, it produces 280 horsepower and 306 lb-ft of torque. 

It also includes technology such as the DNA Drive Mode Selector that enables Dynamic, Natural, and Advanced Efficiency modes to help you focus strictly on the performance of the vehicle.

The competing Cadillac CT4 also has a standard 2.0-litre four-cylinder that peaks at 237 horsepower and 258 lb-ft of torque. Although respectable, this output isn't close to the Giulia's standard engine. If buyers want to access the CT4's top engine, the CT4-V and Premium Luxury include a 2.7-litre turbocharged powertrain that increases results to 325 horsepower and 380 lb-ft of torque in the CT4-V, less in the Premium Luxury. However, this still falls far off the mark when compared to Giulia's best model. 

The Giulia Quadrifoglio catapults the model series to a new place with a 2.9-litre turbocharged V6 that outputs an amazing 505 horsepower. The CT4 is nowhere to be seen at this level, and Giulia Quadrifoglio's capabilities are rare. 

The 2021 Alfa Romeo Giulia follows up its performance with the right interior and exterior designs

Outside, the Giulia is a stunner. Depending on the variant you choose, you can pick from 17 different exterior colours - four of them have been added for 2021. Also, three available appearance packages can complement the exterior look. Inside, the Giulia deploys an array of comforts and finishings - including two-tone colours, contrast stitching and a Formula One-inspired steering wheel that is far superior in terms of style and function than what the CT4 offers.
