Alfa Romeo enters the electric era with the all-new Junior — a head-turning compact EV that blends Italian design, modern tech, and everyday usability. What Is It? Alfa Romeo’s first all-electric car, the Junior, is the Italian marque’s compact answer to urban electric motoring. Unlike your typical EV, the Junior arrives not just with battery power, but with a dose of genuine charisma. It’s already turning heads — and winning design awards — for blending classic Alfa styling with 21st-century tech. Styling Still unmistakably Alfa, the Junior borrows its silhouette from the legendary Giulia TZ, boasting clean lines, balanced proportions, and just enough flair to stand out in a sea of soulless crossovers. It’s a car that will have you glancing back at it in a car park — not because you forgot where you parked, but because you actually admire it. Under the Bonnet The entry-level Junior Elettrica delivers 156hp to the front wheels, offering a WLTP range of 406km. Acceleration is smooth, and charging is quick — a 20-80% top-up in just 24 minutes on a fast charger. For those craving a bit more oomph, the Junior Veloce ramps things up to 278hp, sprinting from 0-100km/h in 5.9 seconds. The sparkle? Still very much there. What About Inside? Step in and you’ll find a cabin that’s sporty, modern, and ever so slightly tight on space. There’s a 10.25-inch digital display, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and standard automatic air conditioning. The 400-litre boot is more than respectable for a car this size, complete with a variable-height floor to stow charging cables neatly. Rear legroom is modest and there’s no rear armrest, so elbow wars may ensue. And Safety? While it hasn’t yet been crash-tested by Euro NCAP, the Junior comes standard with autonomous emergency braking, lane departure warning, and driver attention assist. Opt for the Technology Pack and you’ll also get adaptive cruise control and lane centring, handy for long-haul comfort.
