Prior to its world debut at the Los Angeles Auto Show on November 15th, a teaser image of the upcoming Alfa Romeo Stelvio SUV has been released.
Revealing the silhouette of the Italian company’s very first SUV, the teaser doesn’t show much. Nevertheless, the steeply raked windscreen, bulging front quarter panels/headlights and the sleek tailgate do preview the model’s sporty persona.
While further specifics about the vehicle’s design aren’t known, much of it styling inspiration will come from the Giulia sedan. That will of course include the firm’s customary triangular front grille and in all likelihood, headlights and taillights similar to those of the Giulia. Interestingly, the SUV pictured in the teaser isn’t sporting a tailgate spoiler as some renderings have suggested, indicating such a feature may only come on performance-oriented models.
Speaking of performance, the Stelvio is also expected to draw on the Giulia in that regard. In fact, the range-topping variant will share the Giulia Quadrifoglio’s twin-turbocharged 2.9-liter V6 delivering 503 hp and 443 lb-ft of torque.
