What's the story on the optional limited slip differential?

My wife and I are considering replacing her ancient Saabaru with a new Stelvio base model. Given that the ability to go uphill (STEEPLY UPHILL) in snow is the primary reason for getting an AWD vehicle, the hints about some sort of optional LSD are very interesting. However, I can't find anything about said LSD on Alfa's site (which is frankly unhelpful) or any other promotional materials.



1) Is there actually a LSD that can be optioned onto the base model Stelvio?
2) What option pack is it part of or otherwise how would a dealer refer to it?
3) What are the technical details of the LSD?


Thanks guys.

Kinda bummed out the RWD trim levels don't have damping feature. Base has Nero package with 20" wheels while sport trim level has 19's. LSD with damping features are super but only available with AWD models. Can't do the mega bolsters but can and like the regular seats. Test drove a sport RWD model and loved how it handled. Has anyone compared the base RWD with Nero package against the RWD Sport? Or the AWD models compared against RWD?
