Rumors of the Alfa Romeo Giulia’s barn-burning Nurbürgring lap time have been circulating for weeks, but Alfa went ahead and confirmed it at the Frankfurt auto show, relating that its new sports sedan lapped the Green Hell in a scorching 7 minutes and 39 seconds.

While Alfa didn’t confirm the exact specifications of the Giulia responsible for posting the record time, it’s unlikely that it was anything but the high-performance Giulia Quadrifoglio, which we’ve heard and seen testing before. Alfa’s number doesn’t yet seem to have been corroborated by any independent parties, but the car’s 510-hp twin-turbo V-6 would seem to be up to the task of powering a quick lap—the rear-wheel-drive sedan has about 85 more horsepower than BMW-’s current M3 and M4, the latter of which allegedly looped the ’Ring in 7:52.
