VERY detailed and insightful review. Not only was it packed with information, but you made important points throughout that demonstrate actual knowledge of the car and what lies underneath.
@@rivervalegroup You are absolutely welcome. As a Giulia owner, I was very much in tune with what you were saying because a lot of the same factors went into my decision. A lot of those factors relating to the engineering and underlying platform often get overlooked. But I'll also offer you some constructive criticism if it helps: I imagine the lengthy format of your reviews might be a turn off for some people. Attention spans are pretty short nowadays. Car videos can be longer because there are a lot of stimuli and a lot of information, but you might want to do some research and determine if there's a more ideal duration for this type of video on UA-cam.
After an absence of 25 years, Alfa Romeo has made a triumphant return to the USA with the Giulia sedan and now the Stelvio....Strongest sales numbers ever in their history in the US...month after month consistantly taking share from the Germans....the takeover will take time, but the Germans should be worried....the KING IS BACK !!! FORZA ALFA BABY !!!
Great review. Best one I've seen. Perfect for someone like me who's thinking of buying one in the next few months. Seems like it's going to be very hard though finding one with the right combination in options/colours. Shame about the nasty plastic levers/dials etc and the small reverse screen...why ?

@@rivervalegroup you called the ‘a’ advanced efficiency but other videos on UA-cam and some dealers call it ‘all weather’ just trying to understand the correct one haha
Your reviews are uniquely informative and detailed. It's not a format that is succeeding on UA-cam any time soon despite the great quality; just like the Giulia-Stelvio pair, but my tastes differ from most people's, so...
Hi Clive, we are currently trailing longer reviews. In the new year we will publish both an extended and highlight review. This may be less waffle for you 👍
If you were bored, chances are you had no interest in buying a stelvio in the first place. I'm thinking of buying one so this video was actually very good.
The graphics on the infotainment are from a game boy, cabin quality seems grim, small screen, no digital dash would rather a Q5, X3, NX. Looks nice, I really want Alfa to succeed but this a C- effort must try harder next time, no wonder I never see them on the road
Yeah there’s a lot more to an Alfa than cabin. Sure it would be nice if it were a bit more cutting edge, but their money went elsewhere for now. If top tier graphics and infotainment are your top priority, then you should go for the Q5 or maybe X3. But there are compromises in the drivetrain then. Really I’m grateful Alfa has a different spin on the segment because you can pick whatever works best for you and your priorities!
sideshow....definitely get a Q 5 with those heralded VW based electronics and that video game based gauge cluster.....and talk to me in exactly 3 years or 36000 miles when all that *hit CRAPS OUT !!!! FORZA ALFA BABY !!!!

I bought one last week from Alfa Romeo of San Diego. 2019 TI Sport. Volcano Black and Red leather. Beautiful combination!
Your reviews are the best and most informative on UA-cam. Keep up the great work!
Many thanks for your support, Trevor!

Thats my exact alfa stelvio ti sport...i love this fun to drive sport cuv...
Thanks for the comment Jonathan, its great to have feedback from an owner 👍
Nice comprehensive review - well done.
Many thanks for watching Rob, we're glad you found it helpful 👍
I brought the Stelvio Sport for my wife and she loves it. She used to own the Volvo XC-60 and this is a better handling SUV.
Milan is a special place. Somehow the aura of this car fits into the city. Modern elegance heritage.
The best car review that I ever seen in my life! 👍
Wow, thank you! 👍

These new Alfa's look great. It's just a shame no one seems to be buying them.
@Mr. Commonsense very discerning comment indeed...I agree yes, it will take a little time but the eventuality is absolute ;)

Decades of miserable quality can not be forgotten in a few months unfortunately. But I'm sure Alfa Romeo is now on the right track
@@dinopappous6639 the king is back indeed my friend...Forza Alfa!
@@guidodiiorio6183 ...Alfa is Definitely back on track my friend...watch this space ;)
The best looking suv

Advanced efficiency or all weather? Seen mixed information with other videos
Hi James, which part of the video are you referring to? We always strive to be as accurate as possible 👍
@@rivervalegroup you called the ‘a’ advanced efficiency but other videos on UA-cam and some dealers call it ‘all weather’ just trying to understand the correct one haha
Love my stelvio
Great to hear! What do you love most about it?
I’m thinking of getting one
Amazing, if you are in the UK, we would be more than happy source one for you :)
A really great, thorough review. Thanks!
Thanks for the feedback David 👍
Your reviews are uniquely informative and detailed. It's not a format that is succeeding on UA-cam any time soon despite the great quality; just like the Giulia-Stelvio pair, but my tastes differ from most people's, so...
Personally I’d say a pretty car, without the dreariness of the German offerings. Good luck Alfa 👍
We agree, its great to see manufactures hold their own style 👍
Really stylish.
Hi Nodge, Alfa have a way of separating themselves from the visuals of their competition
Lots of info, thanks. Btw imagine the YELLOW dutch numberplate on it?! It's a disgrace ;)
Got bored and fell asleep there. Great car though.
Hi there, we have a shorter version of this review if you'd prefer to watch that! ua-cam.com/video/ZAp6hGuY77U/v-deo.html

this guy bores me so much i can't get to theend of the video,far to much waffle thats unnessersary . wat a shame alfa one of my all time favourites.
