The 2020 Alfa Romeo Giulia vs. BMW 3-Series: Which Offers Better Control to Edmonton Drivers?

The 2020 Alfa Romeo Giulia and 2020 BMW 3-Series sit at the top of the luxury sports sedan class, offering dynamic performance to Canada – but one area where the two vehicles prove quite different is their suspension.

While horsepower and speed dominate the imaginations of car shoppers, suspension is a vital component that affects handling, safety, and overall control. Here is how these two four-door autos compare when it comes to this crucial detail.

Front suspension: Double wishbone

Rear suspension: Alfa Link 4 ½ link spring coil

2020 BMW 3-Series

Front suspension: Strut

Rear suspension: Multi-link

The 2020 Giulia stands out because of its double-wishbone front suspension and patented Alfa Link rear system. The former allows better pavement contact, which leads to superior handling and more precise control. Drivers remain in command of the vehicle on corners and curves, and this quality gets further enhanced by the sedan’s semi-virtual steering axis.

The advantages of both double-wishbone and Alfa Link are evident on rough roads, in slippery conditions, and when turning. To learn more about the safety components on the 2020 Giulia, connect with Alfa Romeo of Edmonton.
