Overview

The Alfa Romeo Stelvio (Type 949) is a luxury crossover SUV produced by the Italian manufacturer Alfa Romeo since 2016. As a D-segment model it slots above the smaller Tonale model in the marque's SUV range. It was first revealed at the 2016 Los Angeles Auto Show and entered production at the Cassino Plant at the end of 2016. In 2018 it was Alfa Romeo's best-selling model, with roughly 43,000 sold that year. In 2024, it had fallen behind the Tonale in the U.S. as sales dropped to just 3,162 from 12,043 in 2018. The Stelvio uses FCA's Giorgio platform, shared with the D-segment Giulia saloon.

07 Buyer's guide

Who it suits

  • Buyers who want ground clearance, a high seating position and load space: the typical strengths of the SUV body.

Check before you buy

  • Check the emissions equipment (particulate filter, NOx treatment) and the destination country's emissions rules; some markets restrict used diesels.
  • Ask for service records: turbocharged engines are sensitive to oil changes and cool-down habits.
  • Test the four-wheel-drive system (transfer case, differentials) and look for uneven tyre wear.
  • Read the auction sheet grade and notes, and verify the odometer against service and inspection records. How to read an auction sheet
  • Run a history check (accidents, flood, mileage) before you bid. History check guide
  • Import age rules: this generation already qualifies in United Kingdom, Kenya. Confirm the rule for your exact vehicle with customs before buying. Landed-cost calculator
