Is the suspension different from the sport? And if so, how significant of a difference? Thanks for the videos! I’m hoping to get one for the wife and I!!
Regarding the suspension, if you're comparing Stelvio to Stelvio Sport, the short answer is "not different at all." Stelvio Sport is simply an appearance package. It does not even include the sport seats. Those can only be had with the Stelvio Ti Sport and are identical in construction to the seats standard to the QV but with different upholstery covers. However, any Stelvio Ti can be had with the Performance Package option [includes a mechanical limited-slip differential (LSD)and a driver-adjustable suspension]. While the latter item is standard to the Stelvio QV, it is unavailable on a basic Stelvio.
Very thorough review, thanks. It’s a shame FCA is ruining its own success with its price policy on my country. The 280hp model isn’t listed and the 200hp version base model costs 58k€ (that’s more than 60k$ US). I’ve made a quick configuration and went up to 65k€ and there’s not even a leather seat option visible to choose from.
Base modelo for usa. The 280hp Is a middle engine un the international market. Veré un Argentina se hace the complete modelo line an thebase Is 200hp. What we dont have Is the cuadrifoglio engine. For the Giulia se have the three engines available. We also hace the Giulietta smaller sibling AND the mito.
OMG that new blue is kind of a mix of MonteCarlo Blu & Misano Blu 😍💙 would love to have it on my new Qv but i ordered in Misano because you cant order it on qv in europe 🥺
Well, nice base model. RWD is ok. Despite having base interior, combination of colors and minimum options makes this particular one a great choice. I would buy it:). And price... It is ~$10k lower than in Europe.
Yes, this is a very good looking SUV and that blue is an outstanding choice for the Stelvio. A very refined and royal look. For a Giulia, if I were to choose a blue, the Misano Blue would be my preference as it’s a bit more “sporty”.
Well, Alfa-Romeo uses FCA technology, most coming from Fiat Powertrain Technologies and for me, that's a plus! I drive FCA autos in Europe not only because I prefer the way they drive, but also because I'm an aggressive driver and I need robust mechanic to handle my driving style. I'm a (old) driver for more than 40 years, so I can easily say that the car industry lives a myth believing German cars are reliable and Italians ones unreliable. Maybe that was true like 40 years ago. In my book it's exactly the other way around, but if you're afraid to risk, stick with the Japanese brands. :)
Thanks for this. I was asking for this for a while. The only thing it would have been nice, to actually see a base base, no options.
Sweet looking blue! Haven't seen this color in person as of yet, but it looks nice.
It’s such a different color for Alfa. More of something you’d see on a Lamborghini.
I appreciate you brother!💯💯

Oh wow, I didn’t realize how different the specs and prices really were there!
I think it is awesome!!

I still struggle between which is the better blue between this and Misano!
Would you take this base model Stelvio over the sport⁉️
YES! Why not get the same engine, mostly the same vehicle, for less money.
@@23Piccolina exactly and its better than no alfa
Ron!!!!!!.... If it rains everyday... Should you give umbrellas with every sale of an Alfa????
Lol that’s only with Rolls Royce
So beautiful.
It is 😍
Is alpha Romeo unreliable?
They are much better that what they used to be. Alfa just needs a better dealer network.
Yes, “alpha” Romeo are unreliable knock-offs! But an Alfa Romeo and it will be the true reliable Italian auto.

That Stelvio would have a blast on these roads I took my Giulia on this weekend.

Ron I see that Stelvio is NOT 2020 model?!🤔🤫
How is it not a 2020 model? I’m confused...
@@RonsRides isn't 2020 all in black things in same colour?
The Black Stelvio its 2020 but the Blue one not🤷♂️ correct me if I'm wrong
Exterior wise yes, interior nope! 🙂
Yeah interior is a little to Plain Jane for me 😕
