The Alfa Romeo Junior Ibrida mild-hybrid is a small SUV that offers comfort and competitive pricing, but falls short in terms of engagement on the road compared to its all-electric counterpart.
Introduced in the UK in early 2025, the Junior Ibrida is built on the same platform as the Jeep Avenger and Citroën C4, and is powered by a 1.2-litre petrol mild-hybrid engine.
The Junior Ibrida stands out due to its "slick" styling and its driving experience, which is "far better than the Jeep Avenger and Fiat 600" with a well-judged balance between ride and handling.
An all-electric version, the Junior Elettrica, was released prior to the Ibrida.
Author's summary: Alfa Romeo Junior Ibrida is a comfortable mild-hybrid SUV.
