The Avenger is thus far offered here only with electric power, and is currently being offered for just $40,000 drive-away in base Longitude guise. Pricing Drivetrains and Efficiency The Alfa Romeo Junior features similar output and performance figures across its two very different powertrains. Both Juniors feature MacPherson strut front suspension, with a solid beam axle at the rear. Alfa Romeo claims the Elettrica takes 27 minutes to charge from 20 to 80 per cent using a 100kW DC charger. The Ibrida features a 21kW electric motor built into its gearbox, and Alfa Romeo says this mild-hybrid technology allows it to run purely on electric power for certain low-speed manoeuvres like parking. Dimensions Servicing and Warranty The Alfa Romeo Junior is backed by a five-year, unlimited-kilometre warranty with roadside assistance for the same period. The Elettrica’s high-voltage battery is also backed for eight years or 160,000km. Alfa Romeo has yet to announce service pricing.
