Italy 'premium' car is Alfa Giulia "or similar" - what is chance of getting a Giulia?

I have an upcoming rental in northern Italy, and I've currently rented a 'premium' class (group H) through Avis, which the fleet guide indicates should be an Alfa Giulia or similar. (Note: it's not from the 'Select' series option which allows you to guarantee a Giulia... at substantial cost.)

I know I'm not guaranteed to get a Giulia, but I'm an Alfa fan and would really like to drive one. If I'm likely to end up with something else, I'd prefer to go for a smaller car and save some $$$. Does anyone have any anecdotal evidence of either 1) whether Avis in Italy seems to have a lot of Alfa Giulias or 2) what the 'or similar' might mean in this case?

thanks
