The Alfa Romeo Stelvio Quadrifoglio fills the gap that the germans have left open. This 505hp SUV feels and drives like the sports cars we miss from our favorite brands.

As a long time Mercedes driver, I intended to buy a MB GLC in 2018 .... my wife (driving a small Alfa herself) advised me to take a testdrive in a Stelvio Q, so I did..... my plans to buy a GLC went out of the window immediately.... ;-)) 65.000 km on now ... best driving car I've ever owned in 40 years....

@garryn7 2 года назад
I bought a MB GLC300 with 6000 miles. From day one I just didn’t like it. A year later after experiencing several issues, I was looking to trade it in when I stumbled upon the Stelvio. After the test drive, I was hooked. I love this car more every time I drive it.

@@saidalas7763 That's why I said looks are subjective "lmao". The X3M might be slightly faster on track but it could definitely be due to tyre differences. Today's cars' handling has pretty much bottomed out, the only improvements come from tyres. Put some modern tyres on a 20 year old car and it'll keep up with modern cars. And anyways, those are street cars. What difference does it really make that one is slightly faster around a track? The Stelvio QV rides much better, is just as practical, feels better built (especially with the facelifted interior), and it sounds better. I prefer the Stelvio QV, you prefer the X3MC, that's clear. But my point is, the sound definitely isn't the only advantage the Stelvio has over the X3.

I've owned a Porsche Macan Turbo and Cayenne Turbo. Both were very nice, quality built, strong rides but also very expensive to keep being they break down quite often which wasn't my problem. My issue with them was that both Porsches were fairly mundane. I now own a Stelvio Quadrifoglio in Triple Coat Trofeo metallic white, carbon fiber, ice interior w/ green and white stitching... making it ultra sexy that gets a ton of compliments from other auto enthusiasts. The fun factor is easily tripled due to its super quick with precise handling and a rumbling feedback that is priceless - the soul of Italian cars.

Cue the reliability jokes…jk jk. FCA (and Alfa specifically) has their shortcomings, for sure, but what I love about them is they see the value in approaching cars with a fun, enthusiast-oriented mindset much more so than many other automakers. They know who they are and what they do and they don’t try to be everything to everyone. Not necessarily a mindset that lends itself well to sales and profits, but it makes for far more interesting and enjoyable products.

Alfa is doing a spectacular job at keeping the drive alive - there’s so much character in their new vehicles that it’s hard to fault them for their minor shortcomings. Still, when I was shopping for my last daily, it ended up coming down to the Jaguar XE and XF, and Giulia and Ghibli, and I took the XE route instead. I still want to buy a Giulia when I’m ready to try something new, but the Jaguar actually felt like a more cohesive package to me. My one gripe with Alfa is the lack of a detuned V6 option between the regular models and the Quadrifoglio. I definitely don’t want to push 500-something horsepower in a daily, but I still want that spectacular sound. Ah well, just a minor thing, there’s so much else there to love about Alfa

X3 has a better engine than the Macan, it’s basically on pair with the one in the Stelvio. It might lose only because it is heavier and doesn’t handle as good as the Stelvio

Starting at $81K USD, the QV is about $10K over the Porsche Macan GTS and coming from a brand that still needs to prove itself on quality reputation. I guess if you’re young, single, really wealthy and prefers a deceivingly low key sports SUV that only real driving enthusiasts know about it, this car may be the ticket. I can’t fathom this car being comfortable for families or even going on long trips while the Porsche Macan GTS or Turbo wins a few extra points in that arena. Aesthetically, most of the Stelvio Quadrifoglio looks great. But I have never been a fan of Alfa Romeo’s Hannibal Lecter’s restraint mask look on the front grill. It’s actually kinda creepy!

This might be what im looking for as I get older. I totally understand the American family need for a car that is small but has some cargo space, that of which the crossover SUV fills. But this, a nimble crossover that can give you some excitement while driving is basically perfect for an enthusiast trying to take more care of his family than his cars. I do really think toyota and honda should upgrade to a V6 as opposed to the inline 4s the CR-V and the RAV4 have.

The best is definitely the Stelvio. Check track times everywhere. Check how much bigger and heavier the GLC engine is to be able to have the same power. The Macan is a SUV built by Porsche over a VW platform, with an Audi TFSI engine.

@@vomErsten I can see. The S3 is faster, lighter and much smaller. For a 'grown up' saloon the Ti Veloce is a pretty darn compromise, and is significantly better handling that the QV...which has a bit of a reputation!
