The Alfa Romeo Giulia Quadrifoglio Carabinieri Is The World’s Coolest Police Car

This is what happens when you give the world's sexiest saloon car to Europe's most stylish police force...
The Alfa Romeo Giulia Quadrifoglio Carabinieri Is The World’s Coolest Police Car

Months before the Giulia Quadrifoglio goes on sale to the general public, Alfa Romeo has delivered two production-spec cars to the national military police of Italy - the Carabinieri. Adorned in the unit’s iconic dark blue and red livery, the pair of Alfas look suitably menacing; you certainly wouldn’t want to see one in your rear-view mirror.

Disappointingly, the cars remain mechanically identical to their civilian counterparts, but then again, 503bhp and a 0-62mph time of 3.9 seconds should be more than sufficient for the job at hand. And ever the traditionalists, the Carabinieri have opted for a six-speed manual transmission. Sounds like our kind of police force.

On the inside, the car looks classy as ever, even with all the extra kit. The police radio, passenger-side tablet and switchgear for the lights and siren have all been integrated beautifully. Meanwhile the defibrillator, weapons storage compartment, portable cooling units and LED torch holders have been hidden from view.

Suprsingly, these cars won’t be used for high-speed pursuits; they’re much too valuable. Instead, they will be used for ceremonies, rapid emergency response and special operations, such as transporting blood and organs to critical patients. In fact, their duties will be very similar to those of the Lamborghini Huracan used by the Polizia di Stato.

Well,as someone already commented,you pronounce it the way it’s written because Italians had the great idea not to pronounce words completely at random coff coff English coff coff.
Transforming it into a word that pronounced in English would give you pretty much the right pronounce,

Does that mean they’ll pull themselves over to take a picture of their own car instead of your Ferrari?

Wrong, it means that some day an idiot will crash this beauty somewhere. (remember the stunning Lambo couple of years ago?)

Meanwhile in England it’s a Diesel 5 Series with a poverty spec interior. At best.

Worlds most stylish police force? When I went to Italy about 7 years ago they were driving Fiat Puntos!

yes, it’s true because it’s a cheap car and they don’t have money for gas (in Italy 1L of gasoline it’s about 1,35€ and Diesel about 1,10€ for Liter) :(

I agree, puntos are not stylish, but police and carabinieri use Alfa 159 too

These cars are nothing else than rolling billboards for the Dubai police. I highly doubt any of these cars actually get used for “Police things”. And no, pulling over Hammond during filming of Top Gear doesn’t count.

When you call them “Europe’s most stylish police force”,consider their favorite car is the Marea
