The 2018 Alfa Romeo Stelvio -- the first SUV crossover from the Italian brand - has been revealed ahead of the 2016 Los Angeles Auto Show, where the new model makes its global debut.
Technical specs
The Stelvio, named after a harrowing mountain pass in the Italian Alps, is built on FCA’s new Giorgio platform, which also underpins Alfa’s Giulia sport sedan.
The Stelvio will come with two available engines. The base model and midtrim Ti is powered by a 2.0-liter turbocharged inline-four with direct injection making 280 hp and 306 pounds-feet of torque. The top-end Quadrifoglio is powered by a 2.9-liter biturbo V-6 engine that generates 505 hp and 443 pounds-feet of torque -- good for a 0 to 60 mph time of 3.9 seconds, according to press materials obtained by Automotive News. The V-6 also features cylinder deactivation, allowing it to save fuel by shutting off half of its cylinders when not under load.
The all-wheel-drive crossover features a torque vectoring differential to improve traction and stability, while its standard Q4 all-wheel-drive system allows transfer of up to 60 percent of torque to the front axle.
Inside the cabin, the Stelvio shares a number of features with the Giulia, including its climate controls, flat-bottomed steering wheel with paddle shifters, and Apple CarPlay and Android Auto-compatible infotainment system.
When it enters production next year, the Stelvio will be available in 13 exterior colors with a sizable number of interior trim and color choices. Pricing was not announced.
