Living with the MY2020 Stelvio Quadrifoglio - THE Best Sports SUV ?!

- I've never hidden the fact I am a big fan of the Alfa Romeo Stelvio. I recently got to spend a week with the MY2020 Quadrifoglio. I did a lot of miles and really got a good feel for what this 500 horsepower super SUV is really like to live with. Could it be the best sports SUV you can buy ?
Thanks to Alfa Romeo UK for letting me put the miles on the QV. Let me know what you think.

Got a drive in one of these. Just awesome despite not being an SUV fan. Noise is just as you would say MEGA!!!!!!!!!
Oh yeah 👌
Wife not letting me buy the Alfa 4C. The Stelvio QV is my saving grace. 🤩
She’s been talking to my wife no doubt. No Giulia Quad for me.
Buy Both😎
Everyone needs to own a Alfa Romeo.
Yeah....and the endless problems that you have with Alfa’s! Hope you have deep pockets
@@lencampey5685 never had an issue with the 2 alfas i own (147 and stelvio)... strange fact: i have NEVER seen an alfa standing on the highway ;)
@@simvski2119 your one of the lucky ones then!
@@lencampey5685 I've had 3 Alfas and never broken down, but had to use my old Alfa to tow my new VW Jetta when it broke down!!
@@lencampey5685 ....
M3 Subframe cracks
M5 Rod bearing failures
3 Series VANOS failures across the line
911 IMS bearing failures
KEEP DRINKING THE GERMAN KOOL-AID...HANS AND FRANZ ARE POURING...
FORZA ALFA BABY !!!!
THE KING 👑 IS BACK !!!
Beautiful looking car, more flair than the generic looking German SUVs and an absolute weapon to boot - love it!
Evening all looking forward to the vid as usual 👍🏻🇨🇦
What I really respect is the fact that you have a ‘real job’ too! Certainly shows a passion! It must also be so tempting to try and relax on the 4.05 hr journey home, stick on a podcast, highway assist, and try and relax, but you still have to do your review and your ‘positive face for the camera’! Well done buddy. Keep it up and love to the pups.
Thanks 🙏🏻
Brilliant as usual, love these.
I absolutely worship my 2019MY Stelvio Q - fast and dynamic with plenty of flair; unlike German rivals in my opinion! This video was well presented and informative with agreeable and valid points for owning quick and lightweight SUVS👌
Absolutely stunning, what a machine 😉👌🏻
Love the video, looking forward to the Guilia one!
The Giulia video is far more sideways 😂
Fantastic car ,great presence and poise on the road , practical with a hidden rocket under the bonnet for those tractor moments on country roads and middle lane hugger's on motorways , great unbiased review as ever :)
Thanks Richard 👍
Great tunnel sound !! Pete with the grin and chuckle like a school boy always makes me smile 👍🏻🍻🇨🇦
Couldn’t help myself 😂
I have one 2020, the same but black, and I am in love with my Stelvio, for me is the best drivers SUV on it segment, great review greetings from Dominican Republic!
Lovely review Pete, thank you for the vid. Jus
My pleasure 👍
Thanks Pedro another enthusiastic and informative video
Glad you enjoyed it 👍
Very informative video Sir Pete. I’ve really liked the styling of the newer Alfa cars and suvs. Especially the wheels on this one!! I’d say there my favorite stock wheel on a vehicle. Also was great to see the dogs! Hope you and Mrs p our doing well and staying healthy!
They are lush 👌
Hi Ped - Another excellent video, plenty of good information on the Alfa, sounds and looks amazing, great drivers car.
Thanks Adrian 👍
Hey fella. Have to agree its an amazing car. Had ours just over a year now and still in love. Wife uses as her daily driver 70 miles a day and always returns with a smile. The only mod we've done is a bluetooth control for the exhaust flap so now its open in every mode, and cold start is insane. Great vid. thanks.
I knew there must be a way of doing that. Should be available from factory 👍
Nice looking car, goes quite well too!
Good video as usual.the pups looked good !😊👍
Had to get them in it 😂
Evening Pete , as always a great review and a very nice bit of kit 👊🏻👊🏻
Thanks 🙏🏻
Great video Ped, I'm not a fan of the car - but I love the wheels 👍
The way you talk about your pups are like I do about my dogs and that means their family as opposed to being Pets. Great stuff to know you have harnesses for them both too. 👏👏👏
We don’t have kids...we have pups 😂
Awesome vlog pete as always, stay safe,
Thanks Richard 🙏🏻
Morning pal. You were defo covering the mileage, been a while since we have been on a trek with ya. Love the wheels. Goes bloody well. 👍👍
Sure does 👍
Red just like the Alfasud I really wanted as my first car. That's history but your vlog was right on trend. Cheers Pete. Good to see the Pup and Pooch. Buona sera.
Cheers Tim 👍
Great video. I still prefer the Giulia QV, I put Winter Tyres on mine from October to March and it was fine in Race mode and in the wet. But great to see another brilliant Alfa - and I recognise your roads, very nice route back home from Winchester ;)
Tune in on Friday for the Giulia 👍
That's a very appealing real-world all the car you'll ever need machine. Shame you don't see and hear more of them on the road but with 24mpg at best I suppose that's not really surprising.
Excellent real-world review Pete 👍
Thanks John 👍
Good evening Mr Ped, looking forward to this video.
Hi Ray 🙋♂️
I love Alphas, I have since I saw a Spider many years ago and of course let’s not forget the Sud. 0 to rust in under 60 seconds but a sweet little motor.
LOL 😂
Nice review Mr. Ped, of a car that was not on my radar until now. Keep up the great videos! :-)
Cheers Gary 👍
Great video! Looking forward for more content!
I’ll keep it coming 👍
Another cracking review and I know the A272 from Winchester to Petersfield very well. One of my commute routes and I love that road, even if I've travelled all the way down the A34, I always have "fun" on the A272. :)

When you get a clear run it’s brilliant 👍
Evening. Looking forward to this one.. 😊 I was very fortunate to have a 19 plate Stelvio last year as a hire car (not requested, just what the hire company sent!!) It was fantastic!!! If I’m ever in the position to buy one on the future, I blooming well will. I had it on motorways and A and B roads and everything Ped said I wholly agree with. Fantastic fantastic car... I want one 😆
Thanks for backing me up 👍
@@PetrolPed No worries 😌
Lovely sounding car Pete 👌, and both pooches look dapper 👍
Thanks Bud 👍
Happy Friday! Nice looking car. Think I'll keep my mini 🤔
awesome video!
Thanks 👍
Nice long drive but the best part for me was when you got the pups back and they looked so smart and well behaved they are the bees knees Peter, Nice one😄
Thanks John 🙏🏻
Saved to watch later; sure it will be awesome content as always. Petrol-puppy is doing well (11 weeks old now!)
I love that age. So cute 👍
Without doubt the ultimate driving machine,CHARACTER in spades
Awesome video as usual Pete👍😁 Always preferred the Giulia but in the current weather I think I'm leaning now towards this! 😁
Wait for next weeks Giulia vid and that might confirm that thinking 😂
Great video! Fantastic machine
Cheers James 👍
This is one of those lovely vehicles you'd love to own when it's about five to seven years old...
Beautiful car, love the panoramic roof and I totally agree with you about the wheels they are fantastic looking. Lovely note out of the exhaust. It’s a lot of car and a lot of money too.
Cheers Bud 👍
Beautiful car 👍👍
Looks a great car and served you well on your UK tour ! Was I the only one who would fail a memory test on the last 5 mins due to being distracted by the newly groomed and very gorgeous Petrol Pup & Pooch 🤣?
LOL...they stole the show for sure 😂
Still love your dogs! But I love these Alfa Romeos even more! What a SUV this is.
Thanks 🙏🏻
awesome yet again.
Talking about autonomous driving I don’t trust computers neither do I trust other drivers, excellent content with perhaps the best SUV for those that like to drive.
Yep 👍
Hi Pedro, great car, great video again. 👍
Thanks Simon 👍
Keep going mate 👍🏼👍🏼
Will do 👍
That sounds so good going through that tunnel.👍
It sure did 👍
Got to love an Alfa. Sounds lovely. Be a bit nervous using the autonomous driving mode though
Finally..after many years of silence..alfa romeo is back ..
About time I got in on the “in the first 2 hours” act! Also looking forward to watching this - but will have to be later.
Happy Friday everyone 👍🏻
You’re in the draw 👍
Stunning looking car. Serious bit of kit 👍
Indeed 👍
Great review of a really nice car.
Thanks 🙏🏻
Great video Pete. Love an Alfa. My first car was a little Mito, wasn’t a great car in hindsight but meant freedom to me! I’ll have another alfa one day!
Lovely looking thing the Mito 👍
Nice to see you on the Harewood to Pool in Wharfedale road!!!!!! My hood.... cracking little run Pete.

Wish I could have just driven it rather than having to work 😂
Evening , looking forward to seeing how you got with this ☝️
Evening Sir Pedro and Peddlers! It's the weekend at last 😀 Nice review. Alfa always make fantastic looking cars.
Hello 👋 we’ve had a holiday here in the USA so it’s been a long needed weekend. So I hope you have a great weekend
@@coltoncleveringa8004 Thanks 😊 hope you had a good Thanksgiving yesterday 👍
Ben Sharpe I sure did. Wasn’t able to spend it with the overall family but the wife and I and r kids made the best of it!
@@coltoncleveringa8004 Glad to hear it 🙂
Hi Ben 🙋♂️
Great review, my mates keep telling me I need to buy one of these over a M760Li V12 !!!
At least try one 👍
Great video and man what a road test. Didn’t the pups look good.👍
Thanks Andrew. They always look so smart on grooming day 😂
Nice colour. . The A45S comes in that colour too. 👌
Looks good Pedro
Thanks Bill 👍
Epic drive
Thanks Graham 👍
Hi Peddlerz, Hello Peter. My daughter is getting me a petrol Ped T-shirt for Christmas Yay 😀.
Hello 👋. That’s awesome your getting a t shirt!
Yay 👏👏👏
Always like the thought of owning and Alfa...... Never had the balls to. Maybe one day!
Like that very much, never owned an Alfa but longed for a GTV as a young gun.
👍
Now you're talking, an Alfa and going to Ilkley, my place of birth. I actually miss my 159 which I loved, had for 3 years and covered just over 110k miles in complete comfort and reliability. The Guilia isn't as good looking to me as the 159 but I would have another Alfa in a heartbeat.
Stunning scenery around Ilkely hope you enjoyed. 20 - 25mpg is what I get from the Vantage.
Love the girls new haircut.
Loved the 159 👌
Hi all.Always look forward to Fridays!
Hello 👋
That’s good to hear 👍
Very nice and informative indeed.. How is the ride quality in Stelvio QV vs the Giulia QV? Can you drive Giulia QV in race mode in the winters? have you tried 2023?
Thx
I know I miss the 2 hours thing for a chance to be the draw but a great video none the less I have to say the Alfa Romeo stelvio is more than a great car thanks Pete
There will be another prize draw next week 👍
Hello. Good video as always
Thanks Mate 👍
@@PetrolPed quick question. What do you do for Christmas specials. I’m thinking of doing something with the cars that have been revealed for this year or the most popular video that I have done for this year.
Great video as always. You should try and get a Lister Stealth 666bhp
Would love to 👍
Nice car love the wheels
Cool, passed very near to my old stomping ground - did you not fancy taking the a286 route?
Great piece Ped. Just as a footnote, there is nothing in legislation relating to the securing of a dog in a motor vehicle in UK. Advice in the highway code, but nothing legislated for. Obviously if it affects your manner of driving, you could get prosecuted for careless driving, but nothing on the statute books. Your advice to strap them in is obviously valid and good.
Love an Alfa
Nice looking car Pete.
Cheers Scott 👍
Been waiting for this one... gorgeous motor! Hope you paid for the Dartford crossing this time! 🤣😂
This was the time I forgot 😂
@@PetrolPed 😂🤣😂🤣
What a cracking car..... love it
It’s Friday. Just picked up Fish & chips, and PP’s video. 👍
Ooo lovely 👌
Very nice car,never really liked Alfas but this one could change my mind.
I know people like to knock SUVs especially performance ones but they really do everything very well. Nice review 👍
czcams.com/video/nZ3nvxRT_Kw/video.html
They sure do 👍
Great review of the Stelvio Quadrifoglio. Alfa Romeos Stelvio and Giulia are actually the best cars in their category.
When you drive an Alfa Romeo it's always something special, and unique.
I agree 👍
I *think* the A in DNA, (All efficiency) has cylinder deactivation for better MPG on motorway cruising, only in the Quad though
I should have used that mode more 😂
It is. On older cars like the Giulietta and Mito it’s All Weather.
In order for the ECM Master to activate the right bank cylinder deactivation function, it's necessary amongst a few other things, the third-sixth gear has to be engaged and the max number of revs not to exceed 3500 rpm with a max vehicle speed of 125 km/h...... otherwise the 3 cylinder deactivation is just a nice thought.... ;-))
Hello Peter! 😃😃A fine car as long as somebody else buys it for you!! Purchased by brave enthusiasts..but still a car you WANT which maybe all the reasons you need to write the cheque! Stay safe...keep testing! 😃😃😃😃
Buy used 👍
@@PetrolPed 12 months old and half price!!!...sell before the guarantee runs our!. Now that is a plan!!😎😎😎😎
A1 footage near Markham Moor, glad to see the A1 wasn't completely clear as it never is!!! 👍🏻
😂😂😂
Hi Ped
Yet another great review. No doubt it is a very appealing proposition, hope Alfa have sorted out their dealer network, which has not been good. Still feel a certain emotional attachment to the brand having owned a Giulia Spider, superb engine and box with roadholding to match. Classic elegant bodywork, same could be said of the nineteen year old blonde who sold me the car, but that is a story for another time.😉
Hi Ped
Forgot to congratulate the Pups on their smart appearance.🥰
Thought you’d like a pup appearance 👍
Makes drives to look forward to👍
Congrats. You are the last comment in the first 2 hours for the prize draw 👍
254 miles to home - that's to my farthest site I support and it's there and back in a day! Luckily, it's not more than twice a year or so. This makes me reminiscent of my Alfa 156 - I had the first ever in the UK 20 odd years ago. Full spec every extra - I had to pay MORE to have no rear wing with the factory body kit. Loved that thing nearly as much as I love my 'bike.
Wow 😳
Hi Pete, you have been spending to much time in Yorkshire. On your journey home you said " you can overtake in a heartbeat" time for a flat cap mate. LOL
I was bar tat on’t way home 😂
Sorry, Pete, that was me pulling out on you at 11: 38 mate 😂😂😂😂 really sorry but, thought you were doing the national speed limit !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! but unfortunately, since you were travelling at 95 mph I had no time to react 😁😁😁😁 Only joking mate !!! 😁😁😁 btw great upload ( as per normal mate ) R`s Steve.
Thought I recognised you 😂
Love it!! Brave silver golf!!! lol
I know 😳
Hi Pete. I've seen a couple of these on the road in the last week or so.....along with 2 Levantes. Both good looking cars, but the Stelvio just takes it on looks I think. If you could get hold of a Levante, it would be interesting to hear your opinion.
The Lavante is lovely too 👍
Nice video, do like those but are people still worried about reliability with Alfas? Oh and nice to hear my neck of the woods mentioned, it's not grim up north 😉
😂😂😂
@Petrol Ped / All - help - I'm stuck between this or the Merc GLC63s (2020). I know the Stelvio would be more fun to drive, and a better exhaust note (even with -2 cylinders). As a (super) family car, what would you choose, and why?
Must admit was not always that keen on Alfa, but that might have changed my mind!!
They are good at doing that 👍
Love the wheels, love the looks, love the performance,don’t love the price
Good point 😬
😍😘
In the tunnel, that noise in my opinion sounds like the fuel being thirstily guzzled by the engine.
I'm really not into the sound effects of Fmodern cars. The novelty to me has well & truly worn off. Some could say I'm getting old, which I am but I still get a lot of pleasure out of driving my Mini Cooper S on some of the twisty roads I was introduced to in my youthful years on motorcycles.
The Alfa looks a nice car. It's not a brand I have ever looked at though.
Have yourselves a great weekend 👍🏼
Cheers Gena 👍
