Alfa Romeo is set to launch a brand-new large electric SUV in 2027, aimed at competing with the BMW iX and high-performance electric SUVs.

Alfa Romeo plans to introduce a brand-new large electric SUV in 2027. This vehicle will compete with the BMW iX and other high-performance electric SUVs like the Lotus Eletre.

CEO Jean-Philippe Imparato stated that the new electric vehicle will come after the introduction of an electric alternative to the Stelvio, which is expected to arrive in 2026. This aligns with previous reports highlighting Alfa Romeo's commitment to electrification.

 

Clearly, Alfa Romeo aims to move into higher market segments by transitioning to electric vehicles. The company previously mentioned plans for a sedan to compete with the BMW i5 and Mercedes EQE.

Based on the STLA large electric platform, the new electric SUV will feature a lower body design compared to traditional SUVs to enhance aerodynamics and driving dynamics. Thus, it is evident that Alfa Romeo wishes to retain the sporty genes that make driving vehicles like the Stelvio highly enjoyable. This platform can accommodate up to three electric motors, delivering over 1000 horsepower.

The yet-to-be-named electric SUV will offer fast-charging capabilities thanks to its 800-volt electric platform. When fully charged, it will achieve a range of approximately 804 kilometers, indicating that the battery size will not be small. This will also add more weight to the vehicle, making it interesting to see how Alfa Romeo addresses this to deliver an enjoyable driving experience.

Finally, the new Alfa will feature a technologically advanced interior with a sophisticated entertainment system and autonomous driving technology. It will continue to focus on driver-centric interior designs, without overwhelming digital interfaces.
