2nd-gen Alfa Romeo Stelvio delayed, reports say

Anonymous reports are coming in that the second generation of the Alfa Romeo Stelvio may not arrive until October 2026.

The current launch date is still specified as “late 2025”. Commenting on this claim, an Alfa Romeo representative refused to confirm it outright but said that the company had to “revise” its “entire schedule” due to the “changing market”. This doesn’t surprise us at all, considering that Alfa had planned to launch a fully electric Stelvio first.

With the EV market barely scraping by, the Stellantis-owned Italian brand now plans to unveil the entire Stelvio lineup at once. This means introducing hybrids along with any possible EVs, and since some hybrid powertrains take a lot of time to test and optimize, the premiere will have to wait.
