Yes an Audi Q5 or Jaguar Fpace 35t have nicer interiors if your a grandpa...but damn at 44 years old I want something that looks like this dont need my passenger side to be decked out its only me in here....nothing beats the looks I get with this thing...everywhere I go I get stopped and asked about this car...coming from a Jaguar Fpace to this is a huge difference yes Jaguar is far more luxury but I dont feel bad about beating on this thing it can handle it....Jaguars are like small kittens...very temperamental.In addition some months later I realized that I could have chosen the Lusso package which replaces the cheap plastics with leather, but I really wanted the TI sport so no regrets, but I say this to the people that are more interested in a luxurious cabin over a sportier cabin.

We were about to get a Porsche Macan S & then test drove the Stelvio ti sport. It was instant love, we signed on the dotted line and have no regrets. We cannot be happier or recommend it more.Nothing is perfect, the info system could be improved. But this is a driver’s delight of a car. We’ve had Mercedes SUV, Range Rover Supercharged Sport, BMW X5M & Audi SQ5, this Stelvio beats them all in style & driving experience. The upgraded leather interior is beautiful. It’s the best red we’ve seen, bar none. We have every imaginable option & they are all primo! Run don’t walk to test drive this beauty. Our other cars, a Ferrari, Porsche 911 & Jeep Wrangler.

Today the car has 20,200 miles on it. As I mentioned before CarPlay is fussy but has launched more reliably since I stopped trying to drive right away. A short wait to give it time seems to be the tick. Does get confused at times, especially when playing my music. When it won't launch I have to shut off the car, open the door for a few seconds then close it and start to car again. This usually works. My opinion is it's still a fault. After an oil change resetting the mileage is impossible. I'm back to a windshield sticker. The auto high beam works but at times but when seriously dark it sometimes waits quite long to flick to high. It's ok just not as crisp as it could be. Overall I still love the car and would still buy another. Alfa USA are very engaging with me always reaching out to get my thoughts. Previously 12,145 miles and the Stelvio is running fine. I haven't had any major issues. Two minor issues since new; one the battery was junk and the other one that seems to be common is the Radar lens on the right lower front fell off. Both replaced under warranty. The only items that seem glitchy are Apple car Play which doesn't always launch (could be me?) and the automatic High Beam which works but not as I'd expect. It many times won't click to high even when it's really dark? I have to get this looked at. The dealer Valenti Alfa Romeo has been great and between them and Alfa I feel like they are trying to keep me happy. I'd buy the Stelvio again. I stand by my original comments and have read that some of the minor stated issues were taken care of on the 2020 model. It remains a solid and fun car to drive. Small to mid-size SUV's all look the same but I needed one so I reluctantly searched and thankfully found the Stelvio. My must haves are a unique stylish look and excellent handling & performance. I spent a month reading the reviews of the BMW, Audi, Porsche, Jag and Volvo which were good but regarding their looks and especially the driving experience they all fell in behind the Stelvio. Their cost was also an issue. The Stelvio style lines are excellent making it stand-out as very different and the complaints regarding lack of luxury and quirky controls were overstated. I test drove the 2019’s and settled on the Ti Sport with almost all the options including the hitch and full spare. ($58.5k MSRP) A definite must is the Ti Sport performance package which includes the active suspension and limited slip rear differential. The Ti Sport beats the competition in the N mode but switching to the D mode of driving puts the Performance Package in play and it’s an impressive change. It’s a hot rod race car! If you drive one with this option you'll have to have it! I have no complaints regarding performance of the engine, transmission, handling or brakes, they all respond to make the drive thrilling. You’ll want to drive this car hard so have to be careful to avoid tickets! I love the seats because they support and force a proper driving position. Paddle shifters are perfect. Active Cruise, lane change, side & front warnings and cross traffic all work fine. I found nothing wrong with the climate control and the sound system is fine. Automatic high beam feature seems a little quirky and the Navigation is plain but has enough features and does what it’s intended to do. I don’t care about its graphics. Back up camera window is small but fine. CarPlay and Bluetooth can sometimes be quirky but I usually stay in CarPlay mode which works well. Sure it’s not touch screen but it doesn’t take long to master the knob style device; besides once you establish your settings they’ll rarely change. Voice commands need a little time to sync to your voice so in the beginning a little annoying but is fine now. In general it’s a 4 star regarding technology compared the others I mentioned but a 5 star on performance/handling. I love driving it and get many compliments on the looks.

A slightly different take-what to expect

Bought a white one, 21 inch wheels, Nero package, red calipers. It's chocolate for one's eyes. It's fully loaded as far as Alfa makes them, and it's just a deal at $48k. Nope, not the most luxurious. Nope, not the most safety-nanny features. But this vehicle drives like nothing else, there is so much tactile feedback in a subtle way, it's just a ton of fun to drive. Steering is incredible, and it has a voracious grip on the road. The brakes grab like a beast too, not sure why so many "experts" find a fault in that!? And it's just sneaky fast too, once you learn the rev ranges at various speeds, you can play with traffic all day long. But I'm going to talk about the quirks too. It's what I love about the vehicle, and besides, what vehicle doesn't have a few quirks? A pillar and side view mirror, are a bit thick. The price for the elegant style of this is a bit of a "blind" spot looking forwards and to the side. Be careful, pedestrians will appreciate that for sure on your right hand turns. Fold down rear seats, you have to make sure the front seats are forward a bit, otherwise the head rest hits the seat backs. Thank goodness I'm short so I don't have to do much fiddling with the front seats to get the rear backs totally flat. Some of the buttons in the car, when lit, system is off. Also, when lit, system is on. Drove me nuts at first, but left of the steering wheel, light on, system off. Center of the car, light on, system on. See, it's simple :). Paddle shifters, some reviews complain they are in the way. I don't agree, I love em and you learn to pop them for quick gear shifts so you can get the most of the car without having to necessarily mash the gas pedal. And the steering wheel itself, visual candy yet so on point for drivers too. Quality of the center screen isn't great and it has no touch. However, using the various dials and buttons in the center console area, I can actually navigate way faster without taking myself out of a good driving position, so on a spirited romp, touching the screen is truly a negative......but I have to concede the back camera is terrible, at night in reverse or heavy rain, it's basically worthless. The light above it glares too much onto it, and then when it's wet and/or dirty, the screen is a total blur. Daytime though, dry conditions, it's fine. And make sure you have a few soft clothes to clean the lens from time to time, it tends to collect dirt more than you would hope for, Climate control, fought this for a bit, but the best way is to just leave it in full auto mode, with the A/C button lit (so it's on). Then go to whatever heat or cooling temp you want, the car figures it out and does a great job of conditioning the cabin. However, if you start doing manual inputs, taking the A/C off, auto off, it just gets confused and will be in a weird mode of blowing cold air when you want heat and vice-versa if you are in the "normal" temp modes most would find comfort in. Now for some of things most wouldn't think of till you've owned one of these for almost year as I have. The wind shield and sunroof do an amazingly good job of repelling heat. The vehicle just doesn't get hot inside like other panoramic roof top vehicles I have had. Kudos to Alfa on this for sure. Also, the sunroof is nice and simple, while it's a little on the noisy side when open at highway speed, around ton, it's perfect. Last note, if you want to get stopped in a parking lot a half dozen times a week by people asking questions, buy a Stelvio with some nice rims. The vehicle just speaks to them. And if you really want a show stopper, get the red interior, it's totally Italian and just invigorating to sit in it day after day for sure.

I bought my Stelvio to get a smaller SUV. I absolutely love the way it handles. It has great acceleration and it is smooth. My 6’1” son has plenty of head room. I absolutely love my SUV!!
