Alfa Romeo Junior Elettrica tyres
The Alfa Romeo Junior Elettrica leaves the factory on 215/55 R18 and 215/65 R16 and 225/40 R20 depending on wheel size, and the 215/65 R16 98H below is the one most owners are replacing. A standard load 98 rating is modest for an electric car and says something about where this one's kerb weight sits. The Citroën ë-C4 takes the same size.

Your own placard is the authority. You will find it on the on the driver's door jamb, on the B-pillar. Where it disagrees with this page, it wins. Match or exceed the size, load index, speed rating and construction class it gives, and use its pressure figure rather than anything printed on the tyre.
What changes on this car
The 280 PS Veloce gets its own 20 inch tyre, a wider 225/40 with a sidewall of only about 90 mm. Despite the extra power it is rated lower, at 94, than the 18 inch car's 99.
On 18 inch wheels the Junior uses the 215/55 R18 99V XL found across Stellantis' small crossovers. The 17 inch size is omitted: Michelin lists it at both 96H and 100V.

Every figure here comes from one tyre maker's own fitment data, checked across different years or trims. That is a second look rather than a second opinion, so check the label on your door jamb before you buy.

Common questions
- What size tyres does the Alfa Romeo Junior Elettrica take?
- It runs 215/55 R18 and 215/65 R16 and 225/40 R20. The exact fitment for your car is on On the driver's door jamb, on the B-pillar.
- Can I fit a cheaper tyre to a Alfa Romeo Junior Elettrica?
- Only at 215/65 R16 98H or better. That is the figure to hold: a tyre below the load index, the speed rating or the construction class is not a cheaper one, it is the wrong one.
