SINCE 1898 THE 35KM LONG PASSO DE STELVIO, WITH ITS 60 HAIRPIN TURNS, IS AN OUTSTANDING DRIVING ROAD.
Culminating at 2 557m, it is regarded by Italians as the 'Queen of pass roads.
Alfa couldn't have picked a better name for their first SUV; the Stelvio.
And their new baby compact SUV is also named after a classic Alpine mountain pass in Italy. Passo del Tonale or Tonale Pass is a 56.1kmlong road, extremely narrow in places, winding up to 1883m, between Lombardy and Trentino in the Dolomites.
The Tonale, with its beautiful silhouette, shield shaped Scudetto grille and 383 LED headlights is Alfa's rescue vehicle, as compact SUVs are currently bestsellers. And this one is one of the most attractive ones currently available.
