“Alfa Romeo has achieved a rare dynamic feat in tuning the way its first SUV handles, but this has come at the cost of ride refinement, which is a price that many potential customers may be unwilling to pay.”

“If you want a crossover that sacrifices as little of the conventional-car driving experience as possible, then the Alfa Romeo Stelvio should be given serious consideration. It’s a great car in its own right, but given it is Alfa’s first SUV, it’s borderline brilliant on first acquaintance.”

“There’s a much-needed lift given to the Alfa Romeo Stelvio in this round of upgrades. Its interior is certainly much better than before, and the infotainment is a step forward too. The driving experience hasn’t been altered either — the Stelvio remains one of the best-driving cars in its segment.”

“You have to admire Alfa Romeo, it has gone from producing somewhat disappointing hatchbacks to producing excellent cars such as the Stelvio and Giulia in just a couple of years. The Stelvio is great to drive, offers excellent levels of practicality and is packed with some impressive engines.”

“The Alfa Romeo Stelvio is good value, has powerful engines and is loads of fun to drive for an SUV – but the interior materials don’t feel as luxurious as in similar cars and the suspension is a bit too firm.”

“It is tempting to say go and buy a Stelvio while we’re in a period of the Treasury discouraging the purchase of low-emission diesels, and while there isn’t an electric alternative; make the most of the opportunity to own a Stelvio while you can.”

“All in all, the Alfa Romeo Stelvio is a good all-rounder, doing a thoroughly decent job in all areas and a really good job in some. It might not be one of the best SUVs, but if you like the flamboyant styling, and you enjoy your driving, it’s definitely worth considering.”

“Regardless of the engine or spec, few SUVs are as nice to drive as the Stelvio, particularly if you opt for Q4 all-wheel drive. It corners sharply, has a sweet eight-speed transmission, and boasts ride characteristics more akin to a sports car. It is a 4×4 fit to wear the illustrious Alfa Romeo badge.”

“There’s undoubtedly a space in the market for an SUV that appeals to enthusiastic drivers – and the Stelvio certainly is that. It feels very keen to drive, yet it’s also practical, comfortable and great to sit in. Alfa’s mediocre brand reliability is a concern, though.”
