After unveiling the compact Tonale crossover a month ago, Alfa Romeo is now turning its attention towards the company's original SUV – the Stelvio. It has been around for about five years, but rather than switching to a second generation, the Giorgio-based vehicle is sticking around as it is. Several prototypes were spotted in Italy resting on a trailer together with the mechanically related Giulia sedan. What do the two have in common?
Aside from the same paint job and black wheel design, the prototypes caught by Walter Vayr are flaunting an "Estremo" badge on the front fenders. Italian for "Extreme," the dark logo likely denotes a special edition Alfa Romeo is preparing for the dynamic duo. It doesn't appear to be based on the range-topping Quadrifoglio trim, but rather on the warm Veloce variant.
