What this means when buying a used Alfa Romeo Stelvio
A pass rate is a population average, not a verdict on the specific car in front of you. The average Alfa Romeo Stelvio came to its 2025 test at 48,551 miles and 5.7 years old. Most examples tested were petrol, though 29.65% were diesel.
The useful check is the individual car's own MOT record: how many times it has failed, what for, and whether advisories keep reappearing. A recurring advisory on corrosion, suspension or brakes tells you far more than a model-wide average, and a mileage that does not move consistently between tests is a warning in itself.
