VERY detailed and insightful review. Not only was it packed with information, but you made important points throughout that demonstrate actual knowledge of the car and what lies underneath.
@@rivervalegroup You are absolutely welcome. As a Giulia owner, I was very much in tune with what you were saying because a lot of the same factors went into my decision. A lot of those factors relating to the engineering and underlying platform often get overlooked. But I'll also offer you some constructive criticism if it helps: I imagine the lengthy format of your reviews might be a turn off for some people. Attention spans are pretty short nowadays. Car videos can be longer because there are a lot of stimuli and a lot of information, but you might want to do some research and determine if there's a more ideal duration for this type of video on RU-vid.
Great review. Best one I've seen. Perfect for someone like me who's thinking of buying one in the next few months. Seems like it's going to be very hard though finding one with the right combination in options/colours. Shame about the nasty plastic levers/dials etc and the small reverse screen...why ?

After an absence of 25 years, Alfa Romeo has made a triumphant return to the USA with the Giulia sedan and now the Stelvio....Strongest sales numbers ever in their history in the US...month after month consistantly taking share from the Germans....the takeover will take time, but the Germans should be worried....the KING IS BACK !!! FORZA ALFA BABY !!!
Your reviews are uniquely informative and detailed. It's not a format that is succeeding on RU-vid any time soon despite the great quality; just like the Giulia-Stelvio pair, but my tastes differ from most people's, so...
@@rivervalegroup you called the ‘a’ advanced efficiency but other videos on RU-vid and some dealers call it ‘all weather’ just trying to understand the correct one haha
Hi Clive, we are currently trailing longer reviews. In the new year we will publish both an extended and highlight review. This may be less waffle for you 👍
If you were bored, chances are you had no interest in buying a stelvio in the first place. I'm thinking of buying one so this video was actually very good.
The graphics on the infotainment are from a game boy, cabin quality seems grim, small screen, no digital dash would rather a Q5, X3, NX. Looks nice, I really want Alfa to succeed but this a C- effort must try harder next time, no wonder I never see them on the road
Yeah there’s a lot more to an Alfa than cabin. Sure it would be nice if it were a bit more cutting edge, but their money went elsewhere for now. If top tier graphics and infotainment are your top priority, then you should go for the Q5 or maybe X3. But there are compromises in the drivetrain then. Really I’m grateful Alfa has a different spin on the segment because you can pick whatever works best for you and your priorities!
sideshow....definitely get a Q 5 with those heralded VW based electronics and that video game based gauge cluster.....and talk to me in exactly 3 years or 36000 miles when all that *hit CRAPS OUT !!!! FORZA ALFA BABY !!!!
