Alfa Romeo Stelvio
Life is tough in the compact luxury SUV segment, especially for lesser-known contenders like the Stelvio. This Italian alternative to the German and Japanese leaders stands out with sporty styling. For 2025, the lone engine option is a turbocharged 2.0-litre four-cylinder producing 280 horsepower. The Quadrifoglio model and its turbocharged 2.9-litre V6 are no longer available. The Stelvio now comes in a single trim level replacing the Sprint, Ti and Veloce for simplified ordering.
