That’s actually a pretty accurate assessment. I own an Estrema and have tested the Quad several times. I live in a snowy climate so decided I needed the AWD. There is very little if anything between the two in terms of handling, steering and dynamics. Alfa designed the Giulia around the V6 Quad not the other way around like Audi and BMW. So the lower end Giulias behave exactly like the Quad outside of its immense power.

Just got an alfa quad 2 weeks ago and it's just brilliant. Fast, comfortable, brilliant steering, looks fantastic and sounds even better!

I think the tires on each car was diffrent. If Alfa had PZero Corsa in this low temperature outside, I ' m not surprised that Audi was quicker because it propably had Michelin PS4S.

I think you have to also consider that the Alfa was designed in 2014-2015 and remains largely unchanged since then. If you consider that it’s taken Audi about 7 or 8 more years to design a car that’s quicker around the track than the Alfa, it’s far less impressive to me. Keeping in mind the Alfa’s looks are still far better after this time than really any Audi, including the latest ones, it’s Alfa for me all day, everyday, and twice on Sunday.

Apparently, the 2020+ models lose the sharp and direct handling opposed to the 2017-2019 models due to the change in the front end geometry and refinement. Interior of the newer models combined with the steering of the older models would be above and beyond perfect. If anyone’s curious of what I mean, watch “Autofanatic’s” video on his previously owned 2018 QV vs his previously owned 2021 QV.

I own an Alfa Q and he’s right abound the soft rebound. Very simple example: take a speed bump at a brisk pace and it bobs a little more than you’d like. That’s why I’ve replaced the shocks with KW V3 (they do a version specially made for this car). It feels much more taut and tied down and there’s less ‘assistance’ from the diff. Most owners will be perfectly happy with the default setup, but if you want to sharpen your Q up, this upgrade is money well spent.

Also the fact Jason mentions the Alfa could do with a bit more rebound damping is a massive under statement the bloody thing never wants to stay on the ground it feels like it's free to piss off into the atmosphere at any moment. Shocking suspension tuning.

I own my second Giulia QV in Verde green. I think this is simply put one of the best drivers car ever made. This car is not only beautiful but a beast at the same time and handles like a dream. RS5 is a good car and I drove one on the track for half a day. its heavy, understeers big time, does not look as good as Giulia, Boring and does not sound as good either. No comparison here.

Unlike most people I'm not going to pretend I can afford either of these cars, or that if I could, I would be driving them like Jason is here... No. These are both "dream cars". That being said considering this Alfa is now 7 years old and, remarkably, almost the same price it was back in 2016, thats pretty damn good! And personally I like a car that does good handling without resorting to rock hard suspension. On the road, that makes a big difference to comfort and usability, which is what really matters, not lap times.

I have the Giulia Estrema trim, basically a Veloce with the carbon fibre interior/exterior trim of the QV in Alfa Rosso. I absolutely love it, and the best part is Alfa designed the entire Giulia range around the QV, so whereas the M3 and RS5 are very different cars from their lesser mid range and entry spec versions, the base engine Giulia (in North America) with the LSD is essentially the same car as the QV to a T without the V6. It handles, steers and engages just like a QV minus the incredible wave of power and sound. That said the 2.0T is no slouch and with a piggy back ECU you’ll have a sub 5 second car all day.

Great effort from Audi. Just to note that the RS5 weighs 175kg more. Still that A5 begs to be silver and that front headlights can't stop any potential owner from knowing how many different variants there were and that they will be obsolete in no more than 1 year. It's just a much more commercial product which can battle with this Alfa only 6 years later. The Alfa with the stelvio Q4 would have indeed been faster thanks to better power to weight ratio, but alfa couldn't be bothered making a 4wd version of the Giulia, it looks exacly as it looked in 2016 because it can. It's a classic already and it has to be RWD. The RS5 will hold value on the market fairly well, but only become obsolete, never a classic.

The facelifted Giulia Q has gotten a ZF differential instead of the electrical one, a different setup for the suspension and the steering is a little less direct which makes it less nervous to drive on a straight autobahn. Alfa made this car to have seriously good fun.

Most people aren’t race car drivers. Audi is a great car for those who are not professional drivers. Makes sense it is quicker. Quattro grip coming out of those corners helps. To say Audi RS5 is rubbish is simply silly. RS5 gets great reviews from professional car reviewers including this one. Yet to see a bad one.

I can't understand he thinks the suspension on the Giulia Q is quite soft. My Stelvio Q in Race-mode is just bonkers hard. It's almost to much. Is the Stelvio in Race-mode stiffer then the Giulia Q? Makes me wonder, because in Race-mode I feel like driving a lowered '98 Honda Civic. It's just that stiff and hard. I love it though, because in Race-mode it should be that hard for the track. Besides: the Alfa almost 2 seconds slower? That's wel.... quite suprising.

How exactly is that two-door RS5 a saloon? By this standard, the Porsche 911Turbo S is the best "supersaloon".

This Alfa Giulia is so underestimated and the reason the Germans had to improve their sporty division vehicles....question is...where is the follow up range of cars Alfa (hatchback/2 seater/ESTATE !!?.....and why did they go into F1 instead of Touring Cars?GT series??

I am sure the Audi is amazing but how many A5, S5 RS5 do you see every day. When did you last see an ARGQ in all its glory? Alfa for me please.

anyone can drive the audi a giulia quadrifoglio no! it is clearly evident that the rider in this video is unable to keep the giulia on the trajectory, wasting precious seconds. The comparisons must be made with expert drivers, especially experts in rear-wheel drive because the gas pedal output must be dosed delicately to lower the lap time. In fact, at the Nurburgring the Alfa gives the RS5 at least 15 seconds

Bring back Tiff

Are those paddles out of a NINTENDO video game?

Great spot guys !!! Aside Audi is newer and made with Quadrifoglio in mind, we have a coupé with less holes in the chassis and supposely a greater torsional strength. As you mentioned Alfa has suspension that works on the road and are not stiff as traditional are sport version of german cars (remember when Ferrari introduced the incredible fast 458 and most sensible drivers noted how its set-up was incredible confortable) like this RS. Un-bilieveble you compared a 500 HP rear wheel drive car to one 4 wheel drive on a slightly wet track. That's unfair. Why cause Alfa is a four doors you not tried with four person on board against the two doors Audi with just two person on board?? By the way Quadrifoglio is the fastest Giulia, but the best value for money is Q4 with 280 HP just half power at almost half price still road usable sport settings and with the same feeling to be in control of all Giulia... English people knows well it because they have plenty roads narrow and not perfectly paved with lot of turns that made British cars so nimble in the past, as italian use to do too. In France roads follow the hills and Germany is flat with highway always in mind with more recent streets without bumps, so the characteristic of their cars. This is why the only truly german car and oldest is Mercedes with their fast cruisers even in AMG version. Do not forget the other factory from Stuttgart they made the perfect 911, need 60 years to reach nowadays perfection but they reach it. Meanwhile Ferrari made about a hundred of the most beautyful car ever and I still don't understand why are not all painted red 😡
