The Next Alfa Romeo Stelvio Won't Arrive Until Later This Decade

Next-generation Stelvio delayed from about 2026 to nearer 2028.

The successor will use Stellantis' STLA Large platform and offer hybrid plus full-electric powertrains.

Alfa plans a C-segment SUV for end-2027 on STLA Medium.

Thinking about holding out for the new Alfa Romeo Stelvio? The brand's next-generation SUV is still coming, but it is now sitting firmly in the "later in the decade" bucket, not around the corner. Reports from Europe and the US agree that Alfa has pushed the SUV's debut back and reworked the plan, switching from a pure electric launch to a broader strategy.

That means the current Stelvio stays in showrooms while Alfa Romeo locks in the new model on Stellantis's STLA Large platform. The future SUV is expected to mix hybrid and full electric powertrains, grow in size and go straight after premium rivals such as the BMW X3. If you're shopping for a premium SUV today, you now have to decide whether to grab the Stelvio as it is or wait several years.
