The Quadrifoglio name lends itself to high-performance driving and the 2018 Alfa Romeo Stelvio Quadrifoglio is no different!
That’s because of what’s under the hood. Powering the Stelvio Quadrifoglio is an all-aluminum direct-injection 2.9L 24-valve twin-turbo intercooled V6 that delivers an impressive 505 horsepower and 443 lb/ft of torque.
Those aren’t the only astonishing numbers this Alfa Romeo has to offer. The SUV can accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in as little as 3.9 seconds and reach a top speed of 177 mph.
The last number you should know is 7:51.7. That number represents the 7 minutes and 51.7 seconds it took for the Stelvio Quadrifoglio to break the record of the fastest time a production SUV ever completed a lap at the legendary Nürburgring track's Nordschleife (north loop) in Germany.
That’s a full 8 seconds faster than the previous production SUV record holder. Besides the engine, other performance components that can help take credit for this achievement include:
- 8-speed automatic transmission with steering column-mounted aluminum paddle shifters
- Q4 all-wheel drive system
- 4-mode Alfa DNA Pro selector with Race mode
- Quadrifoglio-tuned adaptive suspension
- Alfa Link™ axle design with vertical rods
- Torque vectoring differential
Here’s video of the record-breaking lap, where you can hear that engine purr!
Sporty Feel & Awesome Tech
The 2018 Alfa Romeo Stelvio Quadrifoglio is about more than just racing performance, as the luxurious fine Italian leather with accent stitching & Alcantara® interior combinations will indicate.
You’ll also enjoy the fact that there’s a unique 7" full-color information display cluster with a speedometer that goes up to 200 mph. A cylinder deactivation system designed to maximize fuel economy when driving around North NJ and New York City.
Whether you decide to put the pedal to the metal or not, you’ll be comfortable in your daily commute, on longer road trips & the track. That’s because the available ultra-lightweight carbon fiber shell Sparco racing seats are bolstered more than usual to provide the most lateral support possible while you’re turning.
The Stelvio Quadrifoglio is also designed to keep you safe. In addition to many standard safety features, the optional Driver Assistance Dynamic Package helps prevent accidents through the use of:
- Adaptive Cruise Control
- Automatic High Beam System
- Forward Collision Warning Plus Autonomous Emergency Brake
- Infrared Windshield
- Lane Departure Warning
For even more peace of mind, you can rely on the available ultra-high-performance Brembo carbon-ceramic material brake system that’s designed to slow down this Stelvio even faster given the speed you can get.
