The new Alfa Romeo Giulia Sportwagon might be a reality and will come sooner than expected as photos of it surfaced on the internet this week. However, there is still no confirmation on whether these photos are leaked or fake. Check out the might-be-real Alfa Romeo Giulia Sportwagon here. 

The Alfa Romeo Giulia Sportwagon has been the subject of much speculation in recent months. Rumors had been strengthened this week that it will come sooner than expected after a mysterious batch of photos was published online, confirming all the rumors that had previously been reported. However, the image itself offers more questions than answers.

Published by Carthrottle, the image appeared on a Facebook page of Alfa Romeo fan pages but did not offer any kind of information about it, not even its origin, which makes us think we could just be facing a mere recreation. Still, we can't discount the possibility that this may be a real, leaked image of the Alfa Romeo Giulia Sportwagon.

In the Alfa Romeo Giulia Sportwagon photos, one cannot see much because it is a simple rear view with the obvious tailgate open, leaving the trunk and the rear bench seat that can be folded as 60/40, with the usual central hollow for object lengths. Part of the driver seat was almost the same as the Giulia as well as the twin exhaust pipes and the wide rear tires, which invite us to think about the QV version, according to AutoEvolution.

If some reports about the Alfa Romeo Giulia Sportwagon are true, and based on recent statements from sources close to Alfa Romeo, we might get to see this new version sometime in 2017. The new Alfa Romeo Giulia Sportwagon will combine all the sportiness of the new Alfa Romeo sedan but with functionality, versatility and more capable space.

This would complement Alfa Romeo's range with a much - needed version in some markets, such as Europe and the United States, where they represent no less than 42 percent of sales of premium midsize models. All rivals have these family variants in their respective ranges. The new Alfa Romeo Giulia Sportwagon would be key to achieve the goals set for this model, which hopes to sell between 75,000 and 100,000 units per year.

For the mechanics, the Alfa Romeo Giulia Sportwagon is expected to have the same mechanical range that can be found in the sedan. The diesel range will consist, first , of three variants , with 136, 150 and 180 hp from a block 2.2 , with automatic 6 - speed manual transmission or 8. A fourth variant of 210 hp will be combined with traction Integral Q4 . In terms of gasoline, the range would be articulated into two 2.0 Turbo, 200 hp and 280 hp , this also Q4. And we have to wait to see if Alfa step would offer a version Quadrifoglio , with the engine 2.9 V6 Turbo 510 hp and rear wheel drive .

But as of the moment, nothing is officially confirmed.
