Comparison Overview

Picking between the 2025 Alfa Romeo Stelvio and the 2025 Audi A4 allroad often comes down to whether you prioritize badge flashiness or subtle utility. If raw numbers are your jam, the Stelvio packs a punch with 280 hp versus the A4 allroad's 261 hp, meaning quicker acceleration off the line. However, the Audi fights back in practicality. It offers a larger cargo hold at 24.2 cubic feet compared to the Alfa's 18.5 cu ft, which is a significant difference for hauling gear. Fuel economy also leans toward the wagon; the A4 allroad achieves 26 MPG combined, better than the Stelvio’s 24 MPG combined, though both require premium fuel. While the Audi is slightly cheaper at an MSRP of $47,600 versus $48,995, you are trading some height, as the A4 allroad sits 7.2 inches lower than the 66.0-inch tall Stelvio.
