A 'green' evolution of the FIA ​​WTCR series, which sees the involvement of many major manufacturers, the ETCR Championship will debut a new category of racing cars from next February, with body and chassis similar to those of the WTCR but 100% electric propulsion system. Next to the two brands that have joined for the moment - Cupra Racing and Hyundai Motorsport - a third interesting car will be the Giulia lined up by Romeo Ferraris with the technical support of the Hexathron Racing System. In fact, as a complete electric car of the Biscione, the Giulia ETCR will be powered - like all registered cars - by Wiliams Advanced Engineering batteries, as will the engine, inverter and control electronics. "Very few brands in the world of motorsport - commented Marcello Lotti, president of the WSC Group that holds the ETCR brand - boast tradition and importance like Alfa Romeo. We are happy and proud that Romeo Ferraris has decided to undertake this ambitious program that includes a mythical name like Giulia. The company has demonstrated its commitment and a lot of professionalism with the Giulietta TCR, I am convinced that they will be able to stand out even in this very tough challenge ".
