Alfa Romeos Giulietta, which has LED car bulbs, has been awarded Euro NCAP five-star rating.
The vehicle achieved an overall score of 87 out of 100, making it the safest compact on the market.
Its six airbags, which come as standard, helped the car to achieve this high rating as did its three-point seatbelts with double pretensioners.
The Giulietta also boasts self-aligning head restraints which lessen the effects of whiplash during an impact.
In terms of preventive safety, it also has headlamps with daytime running lights which turn on automatically when the engine is started.
The vehicles rear LED car bulbs produce a brighter light than conventional bulbs, providing extra visibility and, therefore, greater safety.
In terms of dimension, the car is 4.35m long, 1.46m high and 1.80m wide with a wheelbase of 2.63m.
Alfa Romeo fans got their first glimpse of the vehicle back in March when it was unveiled at the Geneva Motor Show.
