Will the new electric Alfa Romeo Stelvio be able to compete with the Tesla Model Y?


The new Alfa Romeo Stelvio 2025 will be the most powerful SUV ever. Under the hood, or rather, on the floor, there will be an electric powertrain capable of producing 1,000 horsepower in the Quadrifoglio version, making Alfa Romeo’s sports car a true supercar. “alta”.

All very well, but the real question that experts and fans, but above all Arese’s high standards, are asking is: “Will he be able to sell?“. The usual million dollar question which crystal ball is needed but it is certain that in a year, when the new Stelvio (which they say is Very beautiful), will be presented, it will have to compete with only one main rival, the Tesla Model Y, the best-selling car in the world in 2023.

A challenge that seems impossible, to begin with prezzo. Model Y currently costs around 42 thousand euros, and for a year these days it could be reduced another price as happened recently with Model 3. It has a battery in the standard version of 55 kWh, autonomy of 455 km and a. maximum speed of 217 km / h.

The Stelvio will never be able to match this extraordinary quality/price ratio? We can bet on the fact that it will cost more. After all, the current Stelvio starts from approx 55 miles euros, so we are already 13 thousand euros above the Model Y, let alone the green version. Focus on that Alfa Romeo Junior costs 41 thousand euros powered by a battery, the new Stelvio could have a starting price of around 60 thousand euros if we are to be optimistic.

So it will have to try to make a difficult part of the market using profit alfisti who nevertheless love the cars they make”congratulations“. He will have one from his side wonderful linewhich therefore can convince more than the Model Y, but the beauty will be enough and there is no other advantage compared to the rival?

If it is true that the Q version will have 1,000 horsepower, one can “calm down“dell”Y performance with a maximum speed of 250 km / h and about 440 horses, which obviously cannot be thrown away. That is why Alfa Romeo will have to succeed in an impossible task, to create a beautiful and high-performance car, which is convincing regardless of price, as BMW, Mercedes and Audi already do: will it succeed? So far only the Chinese have been able to worry about Tesla, perhaps it is better to start planning a version now hybrid
