There's no mistaking the Stelvio for anything but an Alfa Romeo. It features all of the most well-known historical design features, including the V-shaped grille, curvaceous lines, and aggressive alloy wheel designs. It's essentially the Alfa Romeo Giulia's design but lifted and rounded off at the back to form an SUV shape. This modern, striking design incorporates features like HID headlights, LED daytime running lights, LED taillights, and alloy wheel sizes that range from standard 18-inch items to optional 21s. This year, the front grille, exhaust tips, roof rails, and skid plate get the dark treatment and the Ti sports a dark-gray body kit.
The Stelvio is a chunky crossover, with a wheelbase of 111 inches. Other dimensions include a total length of 184.6 inches, making it slightly longer than the Mercedes-Benz GLC, but only by 1.3 inches. Standing 74.9 inches in width excluding mirrors, the Stelvio at least fixes its sedan brother's main problem, namely, a lack of space in the rear. Finally, the Stelvio's height works out to 66 inches. The Stelvio Sprint weighs in at 3,901 pounds thanks to its lighter rear-wheel-drive layout, while the four-wheel-drive Ti and Veloce weigh in at 4,007 pounds.

On the Sprint and Ti, Rosso (red) is no longer available as a no-cost option, only Alfa White, while Alfa Rosso can be had for $330. $660 opens up only four metallic colors to choose from, down from last year's nine. They are Vulcano Black, Vesuvio Gray, Anodized Blue, and Moonlight Gray. Six colors - a white, a green, two blues, and two grays - are no longer on the menu. Upgrade to the Veloce and Moonlight Gray falls away, but you can additionally choose between Rosso Etna (a red hue for $1,200) and Ocra GT Tri-Coat (an ochre hue for $2,200). The special-edition Estrema is only available in the Alfa hues, Vulcano Black, or Misano Blue.
In the more traditional colors, the Stelvio looks quite handsome and elegant, while choosing a color from the more funky side of the spectrum will result in an SUV that stands out even more in a parking lot. Just play around on the configurator and choose either Ocra GT Tri-Coat or Misano Blue to see the effect a striking color can have on this SUV.
