Ever since the launch of the Alfa Romeo Stelvio Veloce Ti, it has gained immense spotlight and appreciation by the automotive enthusiasts and collectors alike. A lot of fanfare has also been seen from a few years back.
The previous model of the car style didn’t gain much user attention. This is why FCA decided to increase the sales by connecting the bridge between two of its vehicles. These were the super energetic Quadrifoglio and the forgotten mediocre range.
The new model update of the 2021 squeezes in between the two versions. This new trim level is not a regular model to complete the space between the normal Stelvio and superior Quadrifoglio. It is basically a top trim which stands above the standard Stelvio Veloce and has extra features. From the surface however, the updated version does not look any different or better than the regular models.
But the addition of the new set of 21 inches shiny black alloy wheels offers a sporty punch to the car. The badges and windows are given light updates too.
Changes and additions
Along with these changes, the manufacturing company has also made numerous additions. This variety includes a SOS call function, on-board WiFi hotspot and an upgraded navigation system. This navigation system offers real-time traffic information along with speed camera alerts. These connected services and facilities have increased the value of vehicles by a big percentage. This is why the cost of the vehicle is much above the used cars prices in UAE.

Features of the recent trim level
The brand new performance version of the SUV has been added to the range. It includes a few sports oriented details and a retrimmed interior. It is now officially ready to order in the month of January.
The standard Alfa Romeo Stelvio Veloce consists of the upgrades of back privacy glass, back bumper, black window and dark tinted exterior badge. There is also an option for buying a new set of five-spoke 21 inches alloy wheels. As inspired by the flagship Quadrifoglio model, the new vehicle showcases an array of tweaks. This includes a black colored headliner, aluminum paddle shifters, rear carbon fiber trim, Alcantara and leather sports seats. Both the center console and the dashboard are constructed by the carbon fiber accents.
Similar to the standard Veloce car, the new Alfa Romeo Stelvio Veloce Ti is fueled by a 2 liter, 4 cylinder, turbocharged engine which delivers 276 bhp and 400 Nm of torque. It is a four wheel drive with a 6-speed automatic transmission. The system that offers the drive to all the wheels gives a distance of 62 mph in only 5.7 seconds.
But it is not only the new model which is getting updates because the Alfa Romeo company is upgrading all the other engines of the Stelvio range. The brand has made sure that the engines are compatible with the Euro 6d rules and regulations.
Technological functions
The cherry on top is perhaps the new dedicated smartphone app which is connected to the car. This car can easily lock and unlock the vehicle remotely. Since the doors of the Alfa Romeo Stelvio Veloce Ti can open and close with this facility, much convenience is added.
This smartphone app which is integrated with the vehicle can also flash the headlamps and set various speed limiters. The system of the app can also work in combination with the Google Home assistant and Amazon Alexa.
