It will share a facility with the Giulietta.

The Giulia will be built in Cassino, located halfway between Rome and Naples, where the unemployment rate for young Italians is as high as 30%. The plant now employs about 4,000 workers who build the Alfa Romeo Giulietta.

Does that mean that some of these young people will be getting a job? That would be great because young people with nothing to do usually end up protesting, rioting, doing crimes and starting revolutions.

Glad to know it will be built in italy, which would probably help with AR's branding of the Giulia, plus on AR's end it makes sense financially to batch Giulia production with the Giulietta.

Due to the short development time allowed, their reputation for production quality might go down.

Actually I wonder if Giulia and Giulietta sharing a factory could mean that eventually Giulietta will use a shortened version of the Giulias underpinnings?

I can see that happening especially with rumors of an SUV coming out and if that will also be produced in the same plant, more and more companies are batching vehicles in that way, with AR wanting volume products, it is the ideal way to go.
