No major changes for the 2021 Stelvio.
Pros Sharp steering and precise handling Powerful and exciting engines Distinctive styling helps it stand out from the crowd
Cons Snug cargo volume Missing some of the latest tech features Overly sensitive brake pedal
Alfa Romeo gives the 2021 Stelvio a more streamlined lineup and a series of minor updates. The company also reintroduces the "Sprint" moniker that was last seen on some of its most famous nameplates—the Giuletta Sprint and Giulia Sprint GTA, for example. It now applies to the base Stelvio trim, with the Ti and Ti Sport rounding out the rest of the tiers. Along with a selection of new exterior colors (Ocra GT Junior, Rosso GTA, Rosso Villa d'Este, and Verde Montreal), Alfa now offers optional 21-inch wheels. Built-in navigation and a dual-pane sunroof are newly standard on the Ti and Ti Sport.
Pros Entertaining driving manners, enticing exterior design, energetic turbo-four engine.
Cons Cargo space is smaller than rivals, back seat isn't very roomy, some unimpressive interior materials.
A bit phoned-in from Audi. It's fine, but the only USP is that badge.
Pros Bold styling (for Audi), should be a doddle to live with.
Cons Few benefits over an A3, on big wheels the ride is atrocious.
The Audi Q2 is a desirable and fine-driving small SUV with an impressive interior. It also has one of the best infotainment systems in the class. Yes, there are cheaper alternatives, but Audi's smallest SUV justifies its cost will its superb all-round ability.
Pros Classy and user-friendly interior Tidy handling Slow depreciation
Cons More expensive than some rivals Mini Countryman is more practical Firm ride with 19in alloys
Pros Dependable handling First-rate packaging Lower Q-range price point
Cons Anodyne identity Slightly breathless petrol engine Higher trim level expense
