The model
Read full Alfa Romeo Stelvio reviewThe Alfa Romeo Stelvio offers alluring looks, entertaining handling and a decent equipment list. For the money, though, there are better all-rounders that have more a polished interior, a comfier ride and more space inside. If you do buy a Stelvio, we recommend the diesel engine and entry-level Sprint trim.
The trim
See full equipmentMid-spec Veloce represents decent value for money as you get 20in alloy wheels, electric seat adjustment for the driver and front-seat passenger, sportier exterior styling, heated front seats, a heated steering wheel, sports leather seats and a limited-slip differential.
The engine
See full engine specsWith 276bhp and a 0-62mph of just 5.7sec the 2.0-litre turbo petrol sounds very punchy, but in reality it needs to be worked hard to show its true muscle. As a result, it doesn’t feel as quick as the on-paper numbers suggest, and that detracts from the feeling of sportiness.
