What the Critics Say
Alfa Romeo Stelvio Features
Turbocharged Performance
Demonstrating no compromises in performance, the Alfa Romeo Stelvio comes standard with an all-aluminum 2.0-liter Turbocharged 4-cylinder engine that delivers 280 horsepower and 306 lb-ft of torque. Pairing its powerful engine with an 8-speed automatic transmission featuring a lock-up clutch for greater in-gear acceleration helps deliver outstanding agility for the Stelvio. Featuring a rear-wheel bias, the precision-crafted Q4 All-Wheel Drive system available on the Stelvio helps you excel across the entire spectrum of road surface conditions. Enlarged brake rotors featuring painted brake calipers help slow the immense power of every Alfa Romeo Stelvio.
Driver-Focused Technology
Cutting-edge technology found inside the Alfa Romeo Stelvio constantly works to assist, not insulate the driver – including performance and infotainment features tailor-made for the driver-experience. The exclusive DNA Drive Mode Selector – a prime example of such technology features – offers three different drive modes to match a variety of driving conditions.
- Dynamic Mode is best for spirited driving featuring a sharp throttle response, improved handling, and performance shift-mapping.
- Natural Mode is for everyday driving, perfectly balanced for comfort.
- Advanced Efficiency Mode gets the most out of your engine’s fuel economy.
The Stelvio also offers standard seamless connectivity with Apple CarPlay® & Google Android Auto™ which can be controlled via a standard 8.8-inch widescreen infotainment system.
Luxury Interior
Though it may focus on its driver, the interior of the Stelvio ensures that all passengers are enveloped in typical Italian luxury. Standard leather seating and 10-Way Power front seats with 4-Way Power Lumbar Adjust ensure front seat passengers are perfectly comfortable, while rear-seat passengers will enjoy generous leg and headroom. With a maximum cargo volume of 56.5 cubic feet as well as an available aluminum cargo compartment adjustable rail system to keep your cargo abundant and secure – the Stelvio is as functional as it is luxurious. Finally, superior audio comes from the available Harman Kardon® 900-watt audio system, including 14 premium speakers and a subwoofer.
