2020 Alfa Romeo Stelvio: What's New, Specs & Features
Last updated August 4, 2026
The biggest change for the 2020 Alfa Romeo Stelvio is a major cabin and infotainment refresh, led by a standard 8.8-inch touchscreen and redesigned center console. It also gains standard forward collision warning with full-speed stop, quieter front glass, and a new Ti Sport Carbon trim.
About the 2020 Alfa Romeo Stelvio
1st generation, third U.S. model year, major interior and infotainment update year.
Alfa Romeo sells the Stelvio as a driver-first luxury SUV rather than a gadget-first one. Its core pitch is Italian design, quick steering, a strong turbo engine, and sports-sedan-like balance from a rear-drive-based platform, wrapped in a practical five-passenger SUV body. Compared with rivals, the Stelvio leans more heavily on feel, personality, and road manners, while still offering everyday comfort, cargo space, and available all-wheel drive.
The 2020 Stelvio ranges from a leather-trimmed 280-hp turbo four-cylinder SUV to the 505-hp twin-turbo V6 Quadrifoglio with adaptive suspension and high-performance brakes. Ti Lusso emphasizes comfort with richer leather and wood trim, while the new Ti Sport Carbon gives the four-cylinder model carbon-fiber details, bolstered sport seats, and a more aggressive appearance.
