Alfa Romeo Giulia Carabineri

Back in the early ’60s, Alfa Romeo introduced the legendary Giulia. It was a compact sedan with high-revving engines, great handling, four-wheel disc brakes, and lively performance. Immediately, the driving characteristics drew the attention of the Italian police and Carabinieri Special Forces Unit (via Alvolante).

For the rest of the decade and a good part of the 1970s, the Giulia in green or dark blue was the most common and favorite Italian law enforcement car. It was compact enough to squeeze through the narrow streets of Italian towns. And it was fast enough to catch even more powerful vehicles. This model became synonymous with Carabineri and Italian gangster movies of the era.
