2019 Alfa Romeo Stelvio vs BMW X3

German manufacturing may seem like the best in the business. But have you considered that other European manufacturers that are doing quite well overseas are making inroads in America? Take, for example, the Italian brand Alfa Romeo that has just unleashed its Italian-styled SUVs designed for American sensibilities. To see how the Alfa Romeo compares to German brands, we'll be pairing the Alfa Romeo Stelvio against the BMW X3. These compact sport utility vehicles are pretty similar. To be sure, BMW has the bigger name in the USA, but is it deserved? Let's find out.

Price: 2019 Alfa Romeo Stelvio

Maybe money is no object to you, but for the rest of us saving a little money without compromising on quality is always a plus. The Alfa Romeo Stelvio starts $1,000 less than the base BMW X3. Despite having different starting prices, the Stelvio and X3 are similarly equipped. The standard Stelvio boasts leather interior, 10-way-power front seats, power liftgate, dual-zone climate control, rearview camera with rear parking sensors, and rain-sensing wipers. There's also standard 8-speaker audio system with four USB outlets and Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.

Meanwhile, the unpronounceable sDrive30i, the X3's base trim, has the following standard features: tri-zone automatic climate control, Bluetooth, USB port, 12-speaker audio system, rearview camera and other active safety features, and the iDrive infotainment system with 6.5-inch touch screen.

Top-Tier Quality: 2019 Alfa Romeo Stelvio

That's not to say that you can't up the value of the Stelvio. Because, while the BMW SUV offers only three trim levels, the Romeo Stelvio goes from its base trim to the top-tier $80,000 Stelvio Quadrifoglio, offering buyers a total of six trim levels. The Quadrifoglio ought to please any SUV enthusiast. This top-tier trim delivers a 505-horsepower 2.9-liter twin-turbocharged V6 delivering 443 pound-feet of torque. This impressive engine comes along with 14-way power-adjustable performance seats, leather and suede upholstery, performance steering wheel, upgraded brakes, torque-vectoring differential, specially-tuned steering and active suspension systems, Harman-Kardon stereo, navigation, HD Radio, blind spot monitoring, rear cross traffic alert, forward collision warning, and automatic emergency braking.

The 2019 BMW X3 comes in three trim levels, the aforementioned sDrive30i, a rear-wheel drive option for those who want an affordable BMW. There's also the pricier xDrive30i and the top-tier M40i. The only difference between the sDrive and the xDrive is that all-wheel drive is standard in the mid-tier xDrive30i. The more quality M40i comes standard with a 355-horsepower turbocharged six-cylinder engine, M Sport suspension, M Sport brakes, panoramic moonroof, 14-way power-adjustable front seats, and satellite radio. As you can see the Stelvio Quadrifoglio offers everything the X3 M40i has, along with a superior engine.

So if you're a bargain hunter looking for a great luxury SUV or money is immaterial and you simply want the best SUV money can buy, the Stelvio has something for you. Italian manufacturing is eating up the track.
