Mercedes-Benz E450 2022

Maybe you never liked the mainstream. Perhaps, in high school, you shunned football for rock climbing. You're eccentric. And you're passionate. Then you should give the Alfa Romeo Giulia a long, hard look. It's a luxury sedan that trades on its stunning good looks and lust-inducing performance. It makes willing sacrifices to space and practicality in service of beauty and driving pleasure. It's Italian. And it eschews the comparative stoicism of its Germanic rivals in favor of heart-on-sleeve driving focus. Despite a mild refresh for 2024 — new headlights and taillights and a new 12.3-inch digital instrument display — the Giulia remains largely the same curvy, quick and involving sport sedan it's been since its 2017 debut. With a 280-horsepower base engine, the Giulia is as rapid as it is pretty. The eight-speed automatic gearbox snaps off upshifts with bolt-action precision, while the meaty steering wheel transmits granular-levels of road information into the driver's hands.
