The mild hybrid technology of the new Alfa Romeo Junior Ibrida combines a combustion engine with an electric motor. The 1.2-litre petrol engine produces 100 kW (136 hp). In certain driving situations, it is assisted by a 21 kW electric motor powered by a 48-volt lithium-ion battery. This combination reduces fuel consumption to an average of 5.2 litres according to the WLTP cycle. The battery is only recharged while driving, for example through regenerative braking.
The Alfa Romeo Junior Elettrica is equipped with a 54 kWh lithium-ion battery. The introductory Speciale model with 115 kW (equivalent to 156 hp) achieves a combined range of up to 410 kilometres in the WLTP cycle or up to 592 kilometres in pure city driving. A 100kW DC fast charge system recharges the battery from ten to 80 per cent in less than 30 minutes. The new Alfa Romeo Junior Elettrica Speciale also features an 11 kW on-board charger as standard and a heat pump for optimal battery pre-heating.
The introductory Speciale is a limited edition to celebrate the launch of the Alfa Romeo Junior. Orders for other non-limited versions, including the Elettrica 240 Veloce performance version, are expected to open in June 2024. The starting price for the Alfa Romeo Junior Ibrida will be 29,500 Euros and for the Alfa Romeo Junior Elettrica 39,500 Euros.
