Following its unveiling in late March, Alfa Romeo wasted no time and is starting sales in Spain of the Estrema special edition for the Stelvio and Giulia

At the end of March, Alfa Romeo held a press event in Hinwill, home of the Formula 1 team that bears its name, to present the Estrema special edition for the Giulia and Stelvio. A special edition that aims to add an extra touch of spice to the flagship SUV and saloon of the Italian brand, though without going to the extremes of the respective Quadrifoglio versions.

The Estrema special edition is aimed at drivers who want a vehicle that delivers greater sporting sensations, very close to those found in the Quadrifoglio versions, where technical solutions take precedence over refined and carefully crafted styling, while never forgetting comfort that makes both the Stelvio and the Giulia practical for everyday use.

That said, the Stelvio Estrema and Giulia Estrema receive changes to the exterior and interior to set them apart from the rest of the trim levels. On the outside, the mirror casings are finished in carbon fibre, and the alloy wheels measure 19 inches for the Giulia and 21 inches for the Stelvio, behind which sit black-finished brake calipers, all topped off with dedicated Estrema badges. Inside, to add a sporty note, the trim inserts are now in carbon fibre, while the upholstery combines a mix of leather and Alcantara with contrasting stitching.

In terms of equipment, the Alfa Romeo Stelvio Estrema and Giulia Estrema come with features such as the instrument cluster with a 7-inch TFT display, the Alfa Connect infotainment and navigation system with an 8.8-inch touchscreen offering connectivity via Apple CarPlay or Android Auto, the Harman Kardon sound system with 15 speakers, DAB digital radio, Active Cruise Control, lane change warning, rear-view camera, and rear cross-traffic alert, among many other things.

Mechanically, Alfa Romeo offers two engine options for both Estrema models: on the one hand, the 2.0 Turbo petrol engine, delivering 280 CV, and on the other, those who prefer diesel can opt for the 2.2 Turbo engine with 210 CV. In both cases, they are paired with an 8-speed automatic gearbox that sends power to all four wheels thanks to Q4 all-wheel drive. On top of this, there is a mechanical limited-slip differential for a more sporting character, and the electronically managed Alfa Active Suspension, which adjusts the suspension and dampers according to the selected drive mode.

Both models are now available to order through Alfa Romeo’s Spanish dealer network, with announced prices starting at 74,500 euros for the Stelvio Estrema, while the Giulia Estrema starts at 64,760 euros.
