Alfa Romeo has gleefully revealed its official tile. The new edition will be known as ‘2010 Alfa Romeo Giulietta’. There are rumors that the company had proposed that the new edition would be called the ‘Milano’ but the name had to be swapped due to a dispute between the Alfa Romeo workers in Milan and Fiat.

The Giulietta will hone an impressive silhouette with a new multi link design at the rear. It is expected that the new edition will offer options of turbocharged engines which will generate between 120 horsepower and 170 horsepower.  It would be teamed with five speed and six speed manual transmission and plans to later introduce the new dual clutch automatic option. The company also proposes to launch a high performing 230hp engine very soon. The new Giulietta will feature a Macpherson strut suspension set up in the front.

All car buffs that are eagerly waiting for its debut in US will have to wait till early 2011.
