When I initially read the comparison there are some points I have trouble with.
C/D claims that the Alfa's steering was lacking in feel/feedback. I find that confusing as they have posted countless reviews in which they have given high praise for the steering feel regardless of model/drivetrain, every single review they posted of the Alfa mentions that as a key area in which Alfa has the competition beat, as they currently have some of the best electric steering in the industry.
The suspension I also find confusing as well as that is also something that has received high praise from both C/D as well as other sources, and the Giulia in my opinion and many others have found it to be extremely planted.
For practicality, interior materials and tech, the 3 is most definitely the winner, and it does still handle well, but when it comes to the driving experience, I believe Alfa is still king of the segment.
