About the Alfa Romeo Stelvio 949
The Alfa Romeo Stelvio Veloce serves as the bridge between the standard SUV and the high-performance Quadrifoglio, sharing the same lightweight Giorgio platform as the Giulia saloon. It features a rear-biased Q4 all-wheel-drive system that can send up to 50% of torque to the front wheels only when needed, maintaining a traditional rear-drive feel. The Veloce trim adds sportier aesthetics and a limited-slip differential, enhancing its reputation as one of the best-handling SUVs in its class. Its carbon-fibre driveshaft and quick steering rack contribute to a level of agility rarely found in high-riding vehicles.
