The auto industry’s been grappling with one challenge after another the last few years.
More recently, vehicle availability caused by supply chain ripples and parts shortages has been an issue, prompting some consumers to consider vehicles that might not be their first choice or leading them to lengthy waiting lists.
But never fear, say the folks at Stellantis, the company behind brands as diverse as Jeep and Maserati. Although there’s no Maserati model on its list, Stellantis did provide the Detroit Free Press, a USA TODAY Network publication, with a number of other models that it says are its most available models right now.
As part of an occasional series, the Free Press is asking automakers to share the models that consumers will have a better shot at getting their hands on.
Here’s what Stellantis provided (the manufacturer’s suggested retail prices do not include destination charges, which vary by model):
Most available Alfa Romeo model
∎ 2022 Alfa Romeo Stelvio: The Alfa Romeo Stelvio plays in the luxury midsize SUV segment. The Stelvio (Manufacturer’s Suggested Retail Price of the top two volume Stelvio trims are TI, $51,160, and Veloce, $52,630) features a four-cylinder turbocharged engine with 280 horsepower. The Quadrifoglio performance model features 505 horsepower from a turbocharged V6. The Stelvio comes in four trims: Sprint, Ti, Veloce and Quadrifoglio.
