Comments

The passenger compartment remained stable in the frontal offset test. Dummy readings indicated good protection of the knees and
femurs of both the driver and front passenger. Alfa Romeo showed that a similar level of protection was provided to occupants of different
sizes and to those sat in different positions. In the full-width rigid barrier impact, good protection was provided to all critical body areas of
both the driver and the rear passenger, and the Giulia scored maximum points. Full points were scored, too, in the side barrier test, all
critical parts of the body being well protected. In the more severe side pole impact, good protection was provided to all body areas except
the chest, protection of which was adequate. Tests of the front seats and head restraints showed demonstrated good protection against
whiplash injury in the event of a rear-end collision, and a geometric assessment of the rear seats also indicated good whiplash protection.
The Giulia has an autonomous emergency braking system as standard and tests showed it provided good protection against whiplash
injuries in low-speed accidents, successfully avoiding impact in all of Euro NCAP's tests.

Comments

In the frontal offset and side barrier tests, both dummies were properly restrained throughout the impacts. In the frontal test, protection
was good or adequate except for the chest of the 6 year dummy, for which dummy measurements of deceleration indicated marginal
protection. In the side barrier test, protection of all critical body areas was good for both the 6 and 10 year children. The front passenger
airbag can be disabled to allow a rearward-facing restraint to be used in that seating position. Clear information is provided to the driver
regarding the status of the airbag and the system was rewarded. In Euro NCAP's installation tests, all restraints could be properly installed
and accommodated by the Giulia except for the rear centre seat which Alfa Romeo say is unsuitable for universal restraints.

Comments

The bonnet provided mixed levels of protection to the head of a struck pedestrian. Some areas in the centre of the bonnet were good but
much of the area around the edge showed poor results when tested. However, the protection provided to pedestrians' legs and to the
pelvic region was good and the Giulia scored maximum points in these areas. The autonomous emergency braking system can recognise
vulnerable road users such as pedestrians and tests showed that the system worked well.

Comments

The Giulia's standard-fit autonomous emergency braking system works also at highway speeds and performed well in Euro NCAP's tests of
this functionality. The car also has a seatbelt reminder for the front and rear seats as standard. A driver-set speed limiter is also fitted as
standard, but it cannot easily be set or adjusted while the car is moving and was not rewarded. A lane departure warning system is also
standard equipment.
