Alfa Romeo Stelvio Quadrifoglio vs. Maserati Levante

With leather upholstery standard in both models as well as features like a carbon fiber trim and available aluminum pedals, the interior will feel both luxurious and sporty.

Plus, both SUVs come standard with 12-way power seats with memory, which will help you enjoy both long-distance and local travel even more.

The Alfa Romeo, though, offers a few extra accommodations as standard. These include front and rear heated seats as well as a heated steering wheel. To get these features inside the Maserati, you’ll need to add them since they don’t come standard.

The Stelvio Quadrifoglio is equipped with a standard 2.9L Twin-Turbocharged V6 engine that generates 505 HP and 443 lb-ft of torque.

The Levante offers four powertrain options to choose from with the strongest, a 3.8L V8 engine, producing 580 horsepower and 538 lb-ft of torque.

Even though the Levante offers more horsepower, the Stelvio Quadrifoglio still beats it when it comes to acceleration. While the 580-horsepower engine on the Maserati can accelerate from 0 to 60 MPH in 3.8 seconds, the Alfa Romeo can do that in 3.6 seconds.

If you’ve ever wanted to feel the thrill of racing, the Alfa Romeo will provide that with its superior acceleration.

They’re equipped with similar infotainment systems that include Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ compatibility.

You’ll also find a reliable navigation system built into both vehicles to help you get through traffic and to unfamiliar destinations.

The Stelvio Quadrifoglio also sets the standard when it comes to safety. While both models do offer many of the same driver-assistance technologies, the Alfa Romeo offers many more of them as standard. In the Maserati, you’ll have to add the Driver Assistance Package to get the same features.

For instance, Adaptive Cruise Control with Stop, Full-Speed Forward Collision Warning Plus, and Blind Spot and Cross Path Detection are standard on the Alfa Romeo. Features similar to these must be added to the Maserati.
