Alfa Romeo Stelvio Veloce Ti: more elegance and sportiness for the Italian SUV

Alfa Romeo continues to work hard on the Alfa Romeo Giulia and Alfa Romeo Stelvio, two models that arrived ready to revive the legacy of their predecessors. Having achieved this and proven it, the Italian brand decided to subject both models to a restyling but, far from announcing their complete renewal just yet, Alfa Romeo has just unveiled the Alfa Romeo Stelvio Veloce Ti, a variant of the SUV that aims to establish itself as a step prior to the Stelvio QV, the most powerful and radical version of the Stelvio.

And this Ti variant -Turismo internazionale- aims precisely at that: to be the prelude to the most powerful one. To achieve this, Alfa Romeo has combined a series of both aesthetic and mechanical details ready to offer a very balanced blend, thus making this new variant of the Stelvio perfect for those who find the QV excessive.

In terms of design, we find the typical features of the Alfa Romeo Stelvio, only seasoned with a series of details that seek to make it even spicier. Specific bumpers, 21-inch wheels that until now were only available on the QV, and this version’s identification plates aim to make the Alfa Romeo Stelvio Veloce Ti, at first glance, a more special car.

The cabin has not wanted to waste the opportunity, which is why we find some very interesting changes. Initially, you will be greeted by sporty-cut seats upholstered in leather and Alcantara, a roof finished in black and carbon fibre inserts. Of course, the Stelvio Veloce Ti also features the novelties that Alfa Romeo introduced with the restyling, which mainly affect the technology section.

But what about the engines? For this variant, the Italian brand has opted for two engines, one petrol and the other diesel. The first conceals a 2.0-litre turbo engine capable of developing 280 CV and 400 Nm of torque, while the second boasts a 2.2-litre unit producing 210 CV and 470 Nm of torque.

For now, Alfa Romeo has not spoken about prices for the Alfa Romeo Stelvio Veloce Ti, but we can be sure that the outlay will not be low. Either way, we are seeing the last gasps of the Italian SUV on the market, which leads us to wonder about its future and its successor.
