2017 Alfa Romeo Stelvio - INTERIOR

Sporty style with stunningly sleek, glamorous lines.
Elegant interior and luxury materials.

The Alfa Romeo Stelvio is a perfect blend of heritage, speed and beauty; and its magical alchemy forms an integral part of the brand's history, dating back over a century. Achieving this mix, now as in the past, involves combining the three ingredients of Alfa Romeo design: proportion, simplicity and top-quality surfacing. These same ingredients gave us the Giulia - the new Alfa Romeo benchmark and precursor of the brand's future - and have been comprehensively reworked to adapt them to the altogether different volume of a Sports Utility Vehicle.

Sporty style with stunningly sleek, glamorous lines

The Stelvio's proportions, with a modest length of 468 cm, height of 167 cm and width of 216 cm, express strength, dynamism and compactness. The side view confirms this impression, with an outline that suggests a compact car, starting at the front and developing towards the rear, and a cabin that ends on a steeply raked rear hatch, topped with a spoiler for maximum aerodynamic performance - crucial on a car that packs this much punch.
The Alfa Romeo styling also finds expression in the high-quality surfacing, which involves creating rich, harmonious reflections across the volumes. The end-result is a sculptural shape, which on the flanks, for example, gives rise to stark contrasts between the surfaces that catch light and those that remain in the shadow. Basically, the "musculature" of the car's sides accentuates its front and rear wings.

The third aspect of Alfa Romeo style is the "simplicity" that masks one of the most complex creative processes in the industry: designing a car. Because styling has the job of concealing the long, complex task of creating the simple, natural lines that highlight the shapely elegance and tasteful sophistication of Italian-made products. This same approach pervades the entire history of Alfa Romeo design, which has always expressed itself through clean, taut lines. That's why the Stelvio has such a strong identity, built around a few select features, like the legendary cloverleaf front end, which is perhaps the most famous and recognisable hallmark in automotive styling. The back end of the Stelvio is instantly eye-catching too, because of the sporting appearance it gets from its lower portion, characterised by the two exhaust tips, and from the "Kamm tail" styling that gives the car a unique, unmistakeable character, while also paying tribute to Alfa Romeo's history - because this distinctive design also featured on some of its most prestigious performance-oriented models and competition cars.
To underline this beauty of line, the customer can choose from 13 body colours (pastel, metallic and tri-coated) that highlight the Alfa Romeo SUV's sleek silhouette.

Elegant interior and luxury materials
The sporty inspiration of the exterior also guided the pens of the Alfa Romeo stylists, who created an interior with simple, elegant lines that offers the very best in terms of quality, safety, equipment and comfort while keeping in mind the characteristic that comes from deep in the Alfa Romeo psyche: the centrality of the driver. This all-important driver-focus is reflected in clustering of all the controls on the steering-wheel, intentionally small and with a direct ratio to suit all driving styles. What's more, the colour information display cluster (3.5" or 7" depending on the version) supplies the driver all essential information, while the driver/car interface consists of two rotary controls for easy, immediate use of the Alfa DNA selector and Alfa Connect system.
Forged around the driver, therefore, the interior has a diagonal tunnel and slightly undulating dashboard, and it has been "tailored" like a bespoke suit, with painstaking craftsmanship and premium materials: the aluminium, real wood, leather and fabrics have all been chosen for their visual and tactile appeal and assembled to give a palpable sense of human artistry. Turning to specifics, the Stelvio version conveys its strong sports-car pedigree with the choice of black for the seat fabric, as well as the dashboard, door panels and mats. The Super version offers techno-leather and fabric seats available in three colours (black, black/brown and black/red), a perfect combination with the dashboard and door panel options, in black, black/brown or black/red, as chosen by the customer. To conclude, this version can also be equipped with luxury seats upholstered in choice full grain leather (in black, brown, red or beige) and the leather racing-style seats (in black, brown or red), with real wood or aluminium inserts, sill with metal inserts and two different steering wheels: luxury with superior quality leather and sports with specific grip and leather wrapping.
