The GTA is back. Yup, the legendary acronym GTA has returned on the the Alfa Romeo Giulia GTA. It stands for Gran Turismo Alleggerita in which, crucially, Alleggerita means 'lightened'.

It's a heavily modified version of Alfa Romeo's Giulia Quadrifoglio, already our favourite super saloon car. Think of the GTA as the equivalent of a Jaguar XE SV Project 8 or the BMW M4 GTS.

Only 500 will be built and there are actually two variants, the GTA and the GTAm. This is the latter, which is even more hardcore than the GTA because it has a roll cage where the rear seats used to be, race front seats with six point harnesses and has had even more weight removed. At a claimed 1540kg it's a full 100kg lighter than the QF. Full technical specifications are below.

The Giulia GTAm, says Alfa, is "a veritable supercar for everyday use". Is that so? Matt Prior takes it on a comprehensive road trip, from motorway to back road, to find out.

Price: Approx £154,000 depending on exchange rate (€176,500 GTA, or €181,500 GTAm)
