How this compares
At 27 MPG combined, the 2021 Alfa Romeo Giulia ranks 11th of 18 midsize cars EPA rated for 2021 — 1.5 MPG short of the 28.5 MPG median for that group.
That places it a little below the middle of its class. If annual mileage is high, the running-cost gap against a class-average rival compounds quickly.
EPA puts annual fuel spend at about $2,800, $725 more than the $2,075 typical for the class. Over five years at 15,000 miles a year that is roughly $14,000, a $3,625 difference against a class-median vehicle.
Tailpipe CO₂ is 330 grams per mile — about 5 metric tons over 15,000 miles of driving.
Consumer complaints
No owner complaints filed with NHTSA for this model year.
