Standard adaptive suspension and a limited-slip differential provides both SUV and saloon with sharper and more engaging handling characteristics. Both models still employ the 2.0-litre turbocharged in-line four petrol engine which churns out 206 kW and 415 N.m coupled to an eight-speed automatic gearbox as standard. The Stelvio SUV uses Alfa Romeo’s all-wheel drive system while the Q4 setup on the Giulia Estrema is optional.

Collaboration with the Alfa Romeo F1 team have also enabled the Estrema models to enjoy improved performance and weight distribution. The upgrades have allowed for improved performance too as Alfa Romeo claim the rear-wheel driven Giulia and Q4 Stelvio can both achieve 60 mph in 5.5 seconds. The Giulia Q4 counterpart achieves the sprint speed in 5.1 seconds with its all-wheel-drive powertrain.

Both Estrema models include adaptive cruise control, lane departure warning, automatic emergency braking, and blind-spot assist as standard. While the models are both available to order internationally, there has been no word from Alfa Romeo South Africa if we will receive the sporty alternatives too.
