Houston, The Woodlands, and Humble, TX, drivers who prefer the finer things desire a luxury vehicle that suits their lifestyles. The Alfa Romeo Stelvio is a top pick among our shoppers because of its sophisticated style and high-performance engineering. Is it practical for everyday driving, though?
At Northside Imports Houston, we want to show you all the great things about the Stelvio model. Here, we dive deeper into its fuel economy. Read on to find out how far this luxury SUV can take you.
Practical MPG
You know that the Alfa Romeo Stelvio is built to perform, but did you also know that it also comes with an impressive fuel economy? Below, check out the EPA-estimated fuel-efficiency specs of the standard 2.0L I-4 engine when equipped with RWD and AWD.1
Drivetrain |
Fuel Economy |
RWD |
EPA-estimated 23 city/29 highway MPG1 |
AWD |
EPA-estimated 22 city/28 highway MPG1 |
Even with 280 horsepower, 306 lb-ft of torque and the ability to accelerate from 0 to 60 MPH in 5.5 seconds, you’ll still get an EPA-estimated fuel economy of nearly 30 MPG on the highway.1
If you want more power, you can opt for the Stelvio Quadrifoglio trim and get up to 505 horsepower and 443 lb-ft of torque with a 2.9L V6 engine. With this spike in output, you’ll notice a slight decrease in fuel efficiency, with an EPA-estimated 17 city/ 23 highway MPG.1
With either engine, you’ll get a much higher fuel efficiency on the highway than on city streets. That’s because the Stelvio shines on high-speed roads-exactly where you’ll reap the most energizing benefits of this luxury performance SUV.
Racetrack Performance
How is the Stelvio able to maintain its racetrack capability with such practical fuel efficiency? Well, that’s because it’s engineered to balance efficiency and performance at the same time.
One such feature that enhances both fuel use and performance is the DNA Drive Mode Selector. It offers the following driving modes to choose from:
- Dynamic
- Natural
- Advanced Efficiency
Being able to choose your driving mode according to the road conditions enables the Stelvio to direct and use energy accordingly, rather than letting this precious resource go to waste as heat.
Dual exhaust tips that come standard on all Stelvio trims also help to increase efficiency without sacrificing performance. They do this by removing pressure from combustion faster, allowing the engine to continue running at peak performance with less downtime between combustion cycles.
Luxurious Italian Design
With all the exciting miles you can get out of the Alfa Romeo Stelvio, you’re going to need a comfortable cabin. Good thing this model was carefully crafted with your needs in mind.
The leather-trimmed seats found throughout the trims reflect impeccable Italian craftsmanship and quality. Available heated and 8-way power-adjustable driver’s seat is there to provide you ultimate comfort when you need it most.
Additionally, the available dual-pane sunroof gives you a clear view of the sky and effortlessly transports you back to your vacation on the Amalfi Coast.
