With a nearly perfect 50/50 weight distribution and an AWD system that is rear bias, means this utility is more like a performance sedan than a typical utility. The power goes through a ZF 8-speed automatic with paddle shifters behind the wheel for manual shifting.The Alfa Romeo Stevio will make a run to 100km/h in 5.5 seconds.The Stelvio is based on the same platform as the Giulia sedan, the Motor Trend Car of the Year.

The two-tone interior with real wood accents and cockpit-focused dash. In–dash technology includes a standard 6.5-inch colour display audio system with standard 2D navigation.
