Out west I am seeing a lot of stelvios with the sticker showing the sport package, including Sport Tuned Suspension followed by Delete Sport Tuned Suspension.

Other stickers do not show the delete but they are far fewer.

Does anyone know the story on this? I thought they all had sport tuned suspension? Does the sport package get you different suspension>

Oddly enough, I can't even find that information on the alfa romeo site. I assume the delete trim stands for missing features? Has the dealership said anything?

Dealership tried to BS me and showed me saying it just meant they are not charging for the sport suspension. I called BS, and showed them the feature availability form which shows it as part of the sport package.

They now say they will find out for me if there is a difference between the suspension in the base and sport.

I went to the dealer today today and stuck my head underneath a base and a sport. Both appear to have same size shocks, springs and sway bars. Same buttons in to cab too.

The only way that would make sense to me is if it was ordered with the performance package instead. That comes with the two suspension settings in leiu of the koni fsd shocks - hence the delete

Drove a Stelvio Sport the other day. Lots of midrange power but was a but kind of disappointed with the tippiness in corners and during direction change, but part of that might be the 19" wheels on the car instead of the 20" wheels. Also, driving to the dealer in my Quadrifoglio makes fair test drive comparisons difficult. Stelvio had the Sport Suspension, so in light of that, I recommend to NEVER buy one without the sport suspension and 20" wheels. Good value in an SUV though.
