Alfa Romeo Stelvio 2021 is a new variant of the Veloce Ti crossover.

The Alfa Romeo Stelvio crossover, created on the basis of the Giulia passenger car, has recently been restyled.

The cabin electronics were updated, which was brought to the modern level required by the market, the interior design improved, especially the most expensive version of the car, the Quadrifoglio version, flourished.

But such cars with an engine of more than 500 hp. not everyone can afford it, many would not mind limiting themselves to a slightly less sporty version, but having about the same catchy design.

Stelvio Veloce Ti became such an offer.

Appearance

The 2021 model has a selection of trim elements that make it look significantly more expensive and presentable.

Most of the changes are in the rear of the car. The new bumper and diffuser enhance the vehicle’s status without adding power or chassis strength.

The profile has also changed, mainly through the use of new 21-inch rims with a rich black design.

The glazing is factory-tinted, accentuated by the darkening of the door frames. Even the mirror housings are no longer painted in body color, remaining black.

Since the Alfa Romeo brand itself already stands for sportiness, they did not make other, more radical decisions in the design of the exterior.

Salon and equipment

The Veloce Ti modification has more differences from the base models inside the cabin. First of all, noise insulation has improved, this effect, when in a sports car almost nothing is heard, except for a pleasant sound from a powerful engine, Italian engineers are well known. Even the glass is made of multi-layer, as in the executive sedans.

The multimedia display, although it does not have a record dimension, but its 9 inches now convey to the driver much more information about the sports components of the car.

Previously, this suite of applications was only available in the top-end Quadrifoglio.

The section of the soft rim of the steering wheel has been increased, and a clear tactility has been added to other controls.

The trim matches the level of sports cars, leather, Alcantara, carbon fiber «racing» inserts are used. There are also many dark shades here, the roof is finished in black.

Electronic driver assistance systems have undergone a radical update that has been called the second level.

This is a large set of lane keeping assistants, adaptive cruise control, recognition of signs and traffic information, an advanced navigation system.

It has little to do with sportiness, but extremely convenient, and most importantly, it was first used on Alfa Romeo cars, which have a reputation for being a driver’s car, but not always outstanding in all other manifestations.

Now this disadvantage no longer exists. Premium asserts itself more and more.

Specifications

The engines do not overwhelm the imagination, as in the Quadrifoglio sports car, but outperform many other crossovers.

A choice of a gasoline engine with a return of 280 hp is offered, of course a turbocharged or economical, but a fairly powerful diesel engine of 210 hp.

An 8-speed automatic transmission and an all-wheel drive transmission will also suit any owner. No compromises on front-wheel drive modifications, not like the Alfa Romeo crossover.

At the same time, all conceivable environmental standards, existing and future ones, are provided.
The dynamics are quite decent, the car accelerates to a hundred in 5.7 seconds, the maximum speed is 230 km / h.

The car is stopped by the Brembo sport brakes with standard four-piston calipers. The polished aluminum manual shift paddles look great and add polish to the controls.

Competitors

The new Alpha will have to fight for the buyer with such sports crossovers as Acura RDX, BMW X3 and Infiniti QX50.

But if we talk specifically about sportiness, then if the Veloce Ti was originally conceived and looks like a fast car, where everything reminds of the racing roots of the Italian brand, then with other similar cars we can talk about the same only at the level of special versions.
