The Alfa Romeo Stelvio I Phase 2 (often referred to as MY23) represents the maturity of the brand's first SUV. Based on the brilliant Giorgio platform, it retains its exceptional dynamic qualities (ultra-direct steering, 50/50 weight distribution, carbon fiber driveshaft) while modernizing its technological shortcomings. This Phase 2 is externally distinguished by its new adaptive '3+3' Matrix LED headlights inspired by the Tonale and smoked taillights. Inside, the adoption of a 12.3-inch 100% digital instrument cluster modernizes the cabin. Alfa Romeo has also introduced NFT (Non-Fungible Token) technology to certify the vehicle's service history. Devoid of any hybridization (unlike its competitors), it is aimed at driving purists. Reliability, erratic on 2017-2019 models, has been largel
The Alfa Romeo Stelvio Phase 2 (2022+) is a highly recommended purchase for driving enthusiasts. Freed from the teething problems that marred the launch of the Giorgio platform, it now offers solid mechanical reliability, particularly with the 2.0 Turbo gasoline engine. While its technological lag (no hybridization, basic infotainment) might deter tech enthusiasts, its road feel remains unmatched in the SUV category. Opt for the 2.0 Turbo 280 hp for the best reliability/pleasure compromise, and avoid diesel if you drive in the city.
