Forbes Italy’s 2024 Winter Gala showcases the ‘stars’ of Alfa Romeo
Forbes Italia’s exclusive “Winter Gala 2024” took place last night, bringing together the protagonists of the Forbes lists for a glamorous evening at Rome’s Palazzo Brancaccio, creating a perfect blend of the historicity of the venue and contemporary glamour. All made even more evocative by the display of three masterpieces of the global Italian brand Alfa Romeo: the Junior Elettrica 280 Veloce and two examples of Giulia and Stelvio belonging to the special limited Quadrifoglio Super Sport series.
The Junior Veloce 280
Junior Veloce 280 embodies the brand’s sporty soul in a compact size. In fact, it is born from the typical Alfa Romeo recipe, which combines proverbial excellence – perfect weight balance, first-class driving dynamics, technological and engine solutions at the top of the segment – with that “timeless beauty” that has always characterized Alfa Romeo Design. The Veloce 280 elevates these peculiarities to the highest level, so much so that it boasts segment-leading agility and the best road handling in the entire category.

The Giulia Quadrifoglio Super Sport and the Stelvio Quadrifoglio Supersport
Also taking part in the “Forbes Winter Gala 2024,” are Giulia Quadrifoglio Super Sport and Stelvio Quadrifoglio Supersport, the special Limited Edition series celebrating the brand’s sporting heritage and its first victory at the Mille Miglia, which took place in 1928 with the legendary 6C 1500 Super Sport. The Limited Edition is distinguished by a reinterpretation of the famous Quadrifoglio logo, which for the first time in its history is presented with a black background, giving added aggression and personality to the symbol that has always represented the most extreme performance in the range. Thanks to the perfect weight balance, the ride remains precise and dynamic, making these cars the reference for handling and performance in their category.
