I bought a 2019 Stelvio Ti Lusso and I love it. The Stelvio is probably not for everybody, but if you prioritize handling and performance in a beautiful package, the Stelvio could be for you. In a world where most small SUVs are built as appliances to provide practicality, utility and comfort for running errands and commuting, the Stelvio differentiates itself from the pack with stellar performance and driving fun. It will put a smile on your face every time that you drive it. The Stelvio is actually a great value too – as the base engine provides the performance that can only be found in some of the upgraded engine packages of the competition at much higher prices. The only base engine that comes close is in the Audi Q5 – and we own one of those too. If I hadn’t bought the Stelvio, I probably would have bought another Q5. The Q5 is quieter, has more trunk space and better technology. The Q5 is also nearly as fast, handles well and is a snowmobile in the winter (we ski in the Colorado mountains almost every week). Although the Q5 is a great vehicle, it has some annoying quirks and I find the seats to be uncomfortable on long drives. It also just lacks the pure driving pleasure of the Stelvio. The other thing that I appreciate about the Stelvio is that not everybody has one. In our neighborhood, we have multiple X3’s, X5’s, RX’s and other luxury SUV’s but nobody else has an Alfa. When you drive the Stelvio in public, people notice it and ask about it. With the metallic black paint, yellow brake calipers and 20” five hole wheels, it looks exotic and stands out from the more sedate competition. If you want a sports car with AWD and the practicality of an SUV, check out the Stelvio.

Great combination of performance and beauty in this Italian-designed SUV. I got mine with leather (real) dashboard and seats plus safety packages. A dream to drive. It has been flawless.

I test drove everything-EVERYTHING: Lexus, Lincoln, Cadillac, Mercedes, Audi, BMW, Jaguar, Porsche, Volvo, and more-for three months until I stumbled upon Alfa Romeo/ Maserati next to the Jag dealership I test drove at. I got in, took off and pulled into a nearby parking lot and started going in circles and slamming on brakes and quickly changing directions. During this time, my friend dropped her cell phone on the floorboard and was leaning forward to pick it up and didn't even feel the car going in every direction. She even looked up right as I slammed on the brakes and said, "wow, it feels like we just ran into a pillow". I don't know how some feel about the brakes but, you will be hard pressed to get a smoother braking than this-like your're being stopped in a pillow-smooth. The ride-smooth. The look-smooth. You don't need a little itty bitty two seat, no trunk race car to have a race car. You have it all. This is my first luxury car. Before I spent this kind of money I wanted to get the most for it. I test drove everything and left each one thinking- that's all, for that kind of money? I drove this car and I was smiling, laughing, giddy with excitement. It left me wanting more. Be sure to get the forward collision. When in traffic, put the car on cruise control and let it drive itself. If you want the vroom vroom noise don't get this car. It is like a stealth bomber-you can get the car going over 100 mph and your passengers, unless the are looking at the speedometer, won't even realize it until you pass somebody. It is like driving a hot knife through butter. I don't understand the Edmunds' complaint of a hard headrest-it feels like memory foam to me and it the most cushioned head rest I've ever felt-like laying your head on a pillow. You also get a two-for-one here: you won't mind taking the car in for servicing because they give you a Maserati loaner to drive. If you want vroom vroom Maserati is you answer, but the ride is not as smooth. Take this out for a test drive-really DRIVE it and you won't leave without one. What this car lacks in the infotainment center it makes up for in the drive, and isn't that what you really buy a car for? I feel like I'm in a dream every time I drive it.

This car does take a bit of adjusting to. I had a 2008 4runner 8cyl, that was totaled for hail damage. The driving cannot be compared. I am surprised no one mentions the quirky features. I tried to get fuel and i could not get the door open. I looked it up when I got home (without fuel). It is a safety feature, if your car is locked the door won't open. I always lock my doors getting fuel because my purse is on the passenger seat. The shifting is different, you have to hold the button on the gear shift and push forward for Reverse. I took a road trip and the Windshield was dirty from snow back splash. The Wipers did not get the Windshield very clean and a warning popped up on the dash stating the windshield needed additional cleaning. I did not find any issue with the brakes. My stelvio has the DNA driving modes, I always drove in D (dynamic) until I figured out I save a lot of gas in N mode, like 75%. Yes, dynamic mode is more fun but I don't drive far to work. My only real issue with the car is driving in snow, not impressed at all, cannot tell if the AWD even turns on. I solved the issue with snow tires and helped enough not to sell the car. Like I stated earlier I had previously owned a 4runner, which was a beast in the snow, could not make it slide just to have fun, So I try not to compare the 2 vehicles. 2019 and only have 39k miles on the odometer. I have owned the car 1.5 years and plan on keeping it for awhile, because the resale value is awful, I would lose 50% of what I paid. The ti lusso option is worth it for the leather and real wood interior. It is IMO a novelty car, just drive and have fun.
