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.
The 2021 Ford Mustang Mach-E electric crossover needs to not only live up to its historic name, but it also needs to point Ford’s future direction.
PROS All-electric powertrain Captivating looks Up to 300 miles of range Thrilling performance promises A new Mustang for a new generation
CONS Will it live up to its name? How small is the rear seat? How will that big tablet work? Small-ish range on base versions
The 2021 Mustang Mach-E is Ford's first all-electric crossover, and it was designed and named after the company's iconic pony car. The Mach-E also pays homage to the "Mach 1" moniker that has been used on high-performance Mustangs of old. Ford said it went with the name because it needed the electrified crossover to be as desirable as a Tesla to usher in its new era of electric vehicles.When the 2021 Mustang Mach-E finally goes on sale, we'd choose the Premium model. It's expected to provide 300 miles of driving range when paired with the extended-range battery and rear-wheel drive, but we'd still choose the all-wheel-drive version, which knocks its estimated range down to 270 miles. Compared with the base model, the Mach-E Premium has more powerful fast-charging capability, 19-inch wheels, a Band & Olufsen sound system, a panoramic sunroof, and a power liftgate.
PROS Attention-grabbing design, handsome and hushed cabin, instantaneous acceleration.
CONS Not particularly engaging to drive, most range ratings are modest, Mustang purists will miss the V-8 traits.
The first Ford designed specifically to be an electric vehicle.Available hands-free automated driving system.Choice of rear- or all-wheel drive and two battery sizes.Launches the first Mustang Mach-E generation for 2021.
PROS Larger 98.8-kWh battery pack should provide 300 miles on a charge Decisive thrust of a pure EV New Sync 4A infotainment allows for multiple driver profiles Upcoming GT Performance version boasts 459 horsepower
CONS Infotainment system is menu-heavy and takes time to learn
