Research and Compare the Alfa Romeo Stelvio and BMW X3 near Orlando

On the hunt for a new luxury SUV in or around Winter Park, FL that's as performance-oriented as it is rich with practical features and attractive design? It's hard to go wrong with the new Alfa Romeo Stelvio. This Alfa Romeo compact SUV is graced with good looks, capable performance, and a wide range of comforts and conveniences. In fact, even when you compare it to some of the stiffest competition in the luxury SUV world, the BMW X3 included, the Stelvio still ranks. But before you believe a blanket statement, allow us here at Alfa Romeo of Central Florida to provide you a more comprehensive overview of just how the new X3 and Stelvio stack up, category by category.

Performance

The BMW X3 comes standard with a turbocharged four-cylinder engine that makes 248-horsepower. While that's satisfactory for some, the Alfa Romeo Stelvio provides a larger standard 280-horsepower 2.0-liter engine. What's more, stepping up to the Stelvio Quadrifoglio - a higher-performance option - will get you a 2.9-liter turbo V6 with 505-horsepower. The X3 lineup also provides a higher-performance M40i model, but its 355-horsepower engine is no match for that of the Stelvio Quadrifoglio.

Styling and Space

From the practical to the purely aesthetic, the new Alfa Romeo Stelvio has been designed and engineered to please. Providing the right amount of cargo space and passenger space all wrapped up in an impressively attractive interior and bold exterior, the Alfa Romeo Stelvio is dressed both to impress and to perform all the practical functions you need from your next SUV near Winter Garden or Windermere. In all fairness to the X3, it too offers a practical blend of design and space with more cargo space.

Safety

Whether you choose the Alfa Romeo Stelvio or the BMW X3, you won't be short on options and features - and that extends well past your typical options like heated seats or a panoramic moonroof and into the wide world of active safety features and driver assist technologies. So whether you're looking for an SUV with automatic emergency braking to stop collisions before they occur, parking sensors to make your next parallel parking excursion more plausible, or the basics like a backup camera, the Stelvio and X3 will both provide plenty of safety features.

Technology & Infotainment

The Alfa Romeo Stelvio and BMW X3 are well-matched where infotainment and technology features are concerned. Both luxury SUVs provide a standard 6.5-inch touchscreen multimedia screen. Both offer premium audio from Harman Kardon®. And both offer Apple CarPlay™ smartphone integration. The Stelvio goes a step above the X3, though, by offering its smartphone integration standard. What's more, the Stelvio offers Android Auto™, whereas the X3 does not.
