Magneti Marelli 
						is playing an integral role in the supply of components 
						and technologies for the vital new 
						Alfa Romeo Giulietta which is returning the brand to the 
						important arena of C-segment, the Fiat Group division's contribution ranging from infotainment systems, 
electronic control units 
						to LED headlights and the suspension. 
						In 
						the area of on-board electronic systems, the innovative radio 
						navigator with built-in maps and featuring a "pop-up display" 
						integrated into the Alfa Romeo Giulietta is a 
						Magneti Marelli product. The hide-away display is 
						positioned in the upper part of the dashboard. The 
						advanced design and ergonomics system incorporates the radio, Audio CD player 
						and CD MP3, SD Card (including for MP3 use), TMC Pro 
						(a traffic information service which is available in Italy, 
						France, Germany, United Kingdom and Spain) and steering 
						wheel controls. The SD card comes with 
						pre-loaded maps of Europe which can be also be used to store 
						music by using a card with files loaded in 
						MP3 format.
						The 
						car's navigator display can also show vehicle 
						operating set by means of the Alfa DNA 
						display, without the driver's having to take his eyes 
						off the road. This equipment is perfectly 
						integrated in the passenger compartment in terms of 
						style, and the many features of Fiat Group's "Blue&Me" 
						infotainment system can be added to it to make 
						it even richer.  
						For the Giulietta's 
						lighting systems, Magneti Marelli supplies bi-xenon HID 
						(High Intensity Discharge) lights for high and low 
						beams. Compared to traditional halogen lights, the Xeno 
						system can supply 200 percent more light. 
						In addition to ensuring improved safety when driving, 
						these lights also require approximately one 
						third less energy compared to the respective halogen 
						lights, and their lifecycle is comparable to that of 
						the vehicle.  
						The 
						front lighting assemblies on the Giulietta also features AFS (Advanced 
						Frontlighting System) which adjusts the light beam, in 
						terms of concentration and width, not only in relation 
						to the steering but also to weather conditions and 
						visibility, vehicle speed, curving radius and in 
						relation to the sides of the roads. 
						All this to guarantee drivers utmost visibility and 
						safety.  
						For the halogen version, the Alfa 
						Romeo Giulietta lights are the clean-lens type. The design frame features shiny and polished finish 
						areas in aluminium (for traditional lights) and steel 
						(darker and warmer shade) tones for the Pack 
						"Sport" versions. The main optical functions are on the 
						inside, while a black frame completing the finish. 
						Both the Xenon and halogen lights incorporate the 
						DRL (DayTime Running Light) function with LED (Light 
						Emitting Diode) technology, which is 
						particularly suited for the DRL function due to its long 
						life and low energy consumption. 
						The rear headlamp meanwhile features an LED parking 
						light and a round dot-like shape. Compared to 
						traditional incandescent lights, the main 
						advantages of using LEDs for rear headlamps are their 
						long life, low energy consumption and reduced 
						depth of the units. They also offer significant 
						advantages in terms of safety, as they turn on faster 
						compared to a traditional light bulb. 
						With regards to 
						the car's power units Magneti 
						Marelli is involved here also, supplying the engine electronic control unit for 
						the 1.4TB Multiair as well as the manifolds 
						and throttled bodies for the 1.6 and the 2.0 JTDM, 105 and 170 HP respectively.
						The main components of the front 
						suspensions mounted on the new Alfa Romeo Giulietta 
						feature the cross-member and control arms 
						designed and manufactured by Magneti Marelli. The cross-member, consisting of a welded 
						frame of elements in high-resistance steel is at the top 
						of the current production in terms of 
						weight/stiffness ratio and stiffness of the coupling 
						points of the arms. This contributes to improving the 
						overall vehicle performance in terms of handling, 
						comfort and road dynamics. The cross-member on the 
						Giulietta was also developed to achieve a high degree of 
						energy absorption in case of a head-on 
						collision. The control arms consist of 2 
						half-shells made of special ultra-resistance steel 
						welded together, again with a view to obtain the best 
						ratio between weight and structural strength. Magneti Marelli Suspension Systems 
						also assembles the semi-corners (front spring-shock 
						groups) and the wheel groups. 
						The Giulietta rear suspensions 
						feature a new multi-link structure for which Magneti 
						Marelli Suspension Systems supplies the 
						assembled wheel group, inclusive of the longitudinal 
						arm.
						Lastly, for the 
						Giulietta's exhaust systems 
						Magneti Marelli in this instance supplies the end-terminals for the 1.4TB 
						120 HP, 1.4TB MultiAir 170 HP and 1.6 JTDM 105 HP 
						engines. These are ystems whose design blends in perfectly with the personality of the car.
