Reasons to wait

PHEV boot drops from 500L (MHEV) to 385L (PHEV) thanks to the under-floor battery. Veloce Q4 PHEV at $78,500 plus on-roads pushes into Q5 PHEV territory.
You need a larger boot (the PHEV drops to 385L), a deeper service network (BMW X1, Audi Q3), or proven hybrid reliability (Lexus UX, Toyota Corolla Cross hybrid).
Alfa Romeo dealer network is small in Australia, service coverage thinner than German rivals. 1.5 MHEV is competent rather than charismatic for the badge, the PHEV is the version that justifies the price.

We have not driven this yet. On paper, here is how it stacks up.

Strongest suit on paper: Alfa-tuned variable-ratio steering, telescope-style digital instrument cluster, and a Veloce Q4 PHEV with 206 kW combined, AWD and 69 km of WLTP EV range. 5-star ANCAP against the 2022 protocol.
The trade-off: PHEV boot drops from 500L (MHEV) to 385L (PHEV) thanks to the under-floor battery. Veloce Q4 PHEV at $78,500 plus on-roads pushes into Q5 PHEV territory.
Check before you buy: Alfa Romeo dealer network is small in Australia, service coverage thinner than German rivals. 1.5 MHEV is competent rather than charismatic for the badge, the PHEV is the version that justifies the price.
Best suited to: Driving enthusiasts who want Italian character in a small luxury SUV, PHEV commuters who can charge at home nightly, and brand loyalists wanting the first Alfa SUV under the Stelvio price point.
