I'm a Stelvio owner. The rear looks like shit. Sad to see what's happening to Alfa Romeo in Stellantis. It should be adquired by Ferrari and taken out of these hands.
They also teased us with the 33 rear lights last year, but they turned out to be a bit different. Afterall it is only a 2D shape they teased us this year, so there is still lot of freedom for surprises. Merry Xmas Ron!
I'm not sure if this style of light is even legal in all major markets around the world. If I'm not mistaken, the IONIQ9 will not have a continuing light bar at the rear for all markets due to some regulation( at least that's what the company claims). So until the final official photos are released, I won't make my opinion on it.
Thats a very good point, I cant imagine this being a concept design because the Stelvio is supposed to debut shortly so we'll have to wait and see because this could be just an animation in the infotainment screen or digital instrument panel as well.
Have to wait and see it in the flesh Ron. I always thought of AR creating left field designs (159, Brera, SZ etc) but this is something (the rear at least). Well if Kia and Hyundai can create 'out there' designs why can't AR? Anyway have a nice Xmas and peaceful New Year Ron !
Alfa will always be a leader in design in their own way and it seems like they'll be pushing the envelope once again! Time will tell! and thank you! Merry Xmas and Happy New Year to you and your family as well!
Jury is out but that green render looks horrific. We don’t need another Kia copy. Light bars are so common now there is no distinction. A V might be different but it doesn’t looks stunning from these renders. Let’s see! I’d take it in a heartbeat if it doesn’t have a Biscioni front grill
I know a lot of people are indifferent with the grill. I do feel like the Motor1 render isnt pleasing on the eyes and just hoping they are completely off of the mark with the design but time will tell. This is our first real teaser and I'm running with it.
@@RonsRides Oh god No, if they are going a new direction the expanded Alfa IP as a rear,,, will just taking some adjustment. Everything eCMP on the Alfa should be abandoned. The should go with scalloped running lights to embrace heritage.
Very interesting! Cant wait for the reveal. My thoughts are these SUVs releases just continue to build up brand equity for Alfa. Which has been severly lacking over the last 20 years. And more importantly provide funds to develop halo and sports models which move low volumes. Hopefully, this becomes a brand to contend with in the years to come...
When the Tonale concept revealed it looked ok then they killed it with the Dodge Hornet. Now the Stelvio is taking design queues from the Junior and making it for Seniors… gray haired ones 😅
O shit! It keeps going to the wrong way, starting from Junior and now Stelvio. The back here is not a progress but a regress...The current one is pretier.
Back is just ok, side view is great. Not sure what the front and grill will end up looking like. I hope not like the Junior front grill, which is hideous. It all won't matter, as Alfa Romeo will probably be gone from the US by the time this vehicle is produced.
Thumbs up for the info thumbs down for the new design. 👎 Enjoy the last Ferrari engineered Alfa Romeos… Stellantis is full on woke with DEI ESG LGHDTV disease. On a positive note The Stelvio first edition 2018 -2024 will be the first and last which should make it a future collectors as one of the most beautiful first SUV that Alfa Romeo has ever produced! 😅

I will say I hope it all comes together in the end, you know I'm always optimistic.
I am as well and I agree with you on the rear end.
I also owned a Stelvio and I agree with you. The backend is ugly. They need to stop the EV nonsense and get back to great designs.
Agreed 100%
Don’t be negative, AR will be amazing!

Merry Xmas Ron!
You're right Tom, this may just be an animation and not making it out to production, Im impatiently waiting! Merry Xmas to you as well!
A lot of "Junior" in this design. Not sure if that is a good path to take on Stelvio.
It’s the Senior for the gray haired crowd
@@user-ls1rt8sw2j I don't see this for "young" or "old" people; it's just not great design.
Ron!!!!!!.....I'll believe it when I see it
And id expect nothing less from you Pauly haha
@RonsRides you know me better than my wife
Looks promising - can't wait to see it in person.
Will it have a combustion version?
Thats the big question we dont know yet but part of me wants to think it will get the Stellantis 'Hurricane' engine!
Well done Alfa!! WOW once again a head of the game with design ❤
Some of these rendering don't look bad honestly. However I'm really excited to see what it looks like when they tease it later this year!

Merry Christmas to you as well!
I like it
🙌🏾🙌🏾
I Just bought a Stelvio 2024! The 2025 is horrible!!!!
Same on our side! Last true Italian Stelvio with gorgio bottom and v6.

You mean to say official design of rear tail light revealed?
I hope the basic trim will remain around the 50k otherwise who will be able to buy it?
I would hope it to be just under that to start 🙏🏾
Man I hope this isnt real. Alfa is already doing poorly and this isnt the design to save them
If so they may find a way to make it work, It could very well be the front of the car too. We'll have to see.
Hate it. Light bars are dime a dozen. Just another cheaper thing to produce for carmakers. No personality whatsoever.
I do like the way Audi does their light bars. I think Alfa could find a way to add some character into it but thats me being optimistic.
Not sure about the rear at least it is elegant, gland the Grotesque Nose of the Junior was abandoned.
Would you rather see a more Junior rear end if that were the case?
@@RonsRides Oh god No, if they are going a new direction the expanded Alfa IP as a rear,,, will just taking some adjustment. Everything eCMP on the Alfa should be abandoned. The should go with scalloped running lights to embrace heritage.

Fingers crossed and we shall see but im with you!

The front and rear is hideous!
We arent 100% sure about the designs, just speculation from what we've seen.
That rear end is horrible 😕 waooo what a downgrade from previous models . Sad.
There's still time for a full reveal. Lets see what Alfa show up with.
@RonsRides we will have to wait and see 👀 there's no choice right now.
I dont like the alfa snake on the scudetto makes it look cheap.
Totally get that.
O shit! It keeps going to the wrong way, starting from Junior and now Stelvio. The back here is not a progress but a regress...The current one is pretier.
After over 30 years alfa (gonna keep my giulia ) or/and maybe switching to Mazda, Alfa is like other cars …nothing special
think again
Keep that Alfa Giulia forever!
@@RonsRides sure, not even comparable
Back is just ok, side view is great. Not sure what the front and grill will end up looking like. I hope not like the Junior front grill, which is hideous. It all won't matter, as Alfa Romeo will probably be gone from the US by the time this vehicle is produced.
I do not like the back
😥

Forget about it…
Sorry for dislike, but this design is shitt no signature design.
The rear looks byd car😢
Disappointing and underwhelming.
Naaa man...Ron the rear looks like shit man the front LEAVE THE SHIELD ALONE MAN! Comon guys the shape everything else is fine
