The Alfa Romeo Stelvio (Type 949) is a car produced by the Italian manufacturer Alfa Romeo since 2016.[a] As a D-segment model it slots above the smaller Tonale model in the marque's SUV range.[6] A compact crossover SUV,[7][8] it was first revealed at the 2016 Los Angeles Auto Show, introduced by a 60" short film directed by Louis Sebastian Pane, and entered production at the Cassino Plant at the end of 2016.[9] In 2018 it was Alfa Romeo's best-selling model, with roughly 43,000 sold that year.[citation needed]

The Stelvio uses FCA's Giorgio platform, shared with the D-segment Giulia saloon.[10] The name Stelvio derives from the Stelvio Pass,[1] Italy's highest mountain pass, noted for its 48 circuitous switchbacks.[11]
