Alfa Romeo is back in full theatrical mode and this time, it’s not just about speed. The brand has introduced two ultra-rare, global-market special editions: the Giulia Quadrifoglio Collezione and Stelvio Quadrifoglio Collezione. Built as factory collectibles and officially certified as “Instant Classics,” these models celebrate the Quadrifoglio badge’s debut on a road-going Alfa in 1963. Each is limited to only 63 units worldwide, instantly placing them among the rarest modern Alfa Romeos ever produced.
And yes there’s a bittersweet twist for some markets. Alfa Romeo has confirmed that the Collezione editions are not destined for the U.S., instead going to Europe, the U.K., the Middle East, China, and Japan. For collectors in our region, though, that makes this launch even more relevant.
The four-leaf clover emblem isn’t a styling flourish it’s a century-old symbol of Alfa Romeo’s racing soul. The Quadrifoglio story began in 1923, when Italian driver Ugo Sivocci painted a green cloverleaf on his Alfa before the Targa Florio, where he went on to win. Since then, the badge has marked Alfa’s most extreme performance machines.
The “63” production cap isn’t random either. It’s a direct tribute to 1963, the year the Quadrifoglio first appeared on a street-legal Alfa Romeo: the legendary Giulia Ti Super. The new Collezione editions exist to honor that milestone, as Alfa Romeo reinforces its heritage narrative ahead of a more electrified future.
If you’re going to build a collectible Alfa, you do it in red but Alfa didn’t settle for ordinary red. The Collezione duo debuts two exclusive triple-coat finishes inspired by Rosso Villa d’Este, a signature shade developed for Alfa’s halo 33 Stradale supercar.
Alfa Romeo’s relationship with red runs deeper than fashion it’s cultural identity, motorsport tradition, and emotional design language rolled into one. These two shades expand that legacy in a way collectors will talk about for decades
Mechanically, Alfa Romeo stayed loyal to what made the Quadrifoglio badge famous. Both Collezione models use the twin-turbo 2.9-liter V6, tuned here to 520 PS (about 513 hp) depending on market rating. Either way, it’s an emphatic final-chapter vibe for Alfa’s combustion performance era.
Performance hardware includes:
These aren’t simple appearance packages. They’re engineered tributes to Alfa’s golden performance DNA the kind of cars brands build when they know an era is about to change.
Step inside the Quadrifoglio Collezione and it’s clear Alfa wasn’t aiming for “special.” It was aiming for museum-level exclusivity. Both cabins feature upgraded leather and Alcantara upholstery, red contrast stitching, and model-specific Collezione embroidery. Every example is individually numbered (“1 of 63,” “2 of 63,” etc.), turning each car into a VIN-matched collectible from day one. Highlights include:
It’s an interior that invites driving but also demands admiration.
With availability confirmed for the Middle East, the Collezione editions will land in one of the world’s strongest enthusiast and collector markets. In a performance world increasingly shaped by electrification, limited-run cars like these carry extra gravity. They represent not just speed, but a brand staking its identity in the final years of a beloved formula: high-revving V6 power, rear-biased dynamics, and handmade Italian emotion.
For collectors, it’s simple math:
That’s the recipe for long-term desirability.
The 2026 Giulia and Stelvio Quadrifoglio Collezione aren’t just Alfa Romeo special editions. They’re rolling time capsules the kind of ultra-rare performance tributes that show how a brand wants to be remembered. Fast, vivid, and unmistakably Italian, they capture everything enthusiasts love about the Quadrifoglio name. And with just 63 of each headed to select global markets, they’ll be seen far more often in collector circles than on open roads. For those lucky enough to secure one, this isn’t just a purchase.
It’s a piece of Alfa Romeo history painted in red, signed in carbon fiber, and numbered for the ages.
