Behold, ‘tis the Giulia’s interior. So shine!

If this interior belongs to the quickest of the Giulias, the tachometer going red at about 6.6k RPM could suggest that instead of going all Ferrari, they looked to the Maserati Ghibli (S) for engines, as it also comes with a turbocharged V6 limited to some 6,500 RPM.

Not sure how this will stack up in reality, but it sure looks comfortable and even ergonomical with that hint of Audi signature style.

What do you think? Proper or not different enough to grace an Alfa?

Is the ‘Start engine’ button on the wheel, or is that just the perspective? If it is there: that doesn’t seem ergonomic at all.

I think it’s actually on there. Makes it more Ferrari , I guess.

Personally, I would not mind it being there most of the time ... although it could quickly become awkward when parked with the wheels off-center.

For a second there I thought it was a pic of the 6th gen Camaros interior. Which I know everyone hates!!!!!

I guess they both have steering wheels.

I think it’s fantastic.. I was curious as to why they put it there... but nevertheless it looks good. I hope one day my hand wouldn’t hit it accidentally. lol

They look pretty similar. But interior critiquing isnt my thing. Honestly, Id have trouble describing the interior of any of my cars haha.

The side vents look the same, shifter area,

And a steering wheel taken directly from the F30 3-series!

Pretty much, yeah. The light control switches to the left of the steering look pretty Teutonic as well, be that a case of BMW or Audi influence.

Jobs famously attributed his “Good artists copy; great artists steal” aphorism to Pablo Picasso ... I bet Picasso stole that saying from zee Italians!

Eh, you have to get in somehow . Maybe it was an afterthought? ;)

“Hands on the wheel” school of thinking, I guess. It would be odd if you could accidentially turn off the engine and power-assists while driving, though. That’d make for some bad PR à la keychain debacle.

Looking at both pictures, I instantly felt that the Camaro looked more cramped ... which is weird once you factor in their respective sizes. The vents on the Alfa seem more in line with recent Mercedes/AMG or Audi (TT) creations, though, which sometimes sport four spoke designs.
