Fifth Gear: Shoot Out Jaguar F-Pace Vs Alfa Romeo Stelvio

Wow 1660kg? That's like 500kg lighter than some SUVs!

Finally a car company that understands that on demand AWD cars should primarily be real wheel driven. Scumy Germans put that FW-biased Haldex into everything and save the RW-biased Haldex for superexotics only.

[@trevorhennessy4238]

You are absolutely right this is a pointless test. While the review was interesting no one buys these cars based on there track ability.

[@665Thunder]

it's the only review testing the car on a track, while every others are testing it in a straight line, which is really pointless. plus it's the only SUV that handles well, so it's good to see to which limit it can get. Circuit performance is a direct indicator for driving pleasure

[@KENNETH-rh8mz]

I can understand why some spell Alfa Romeo as Alpha, its simple, because ALFA ROMEO is the ALPHA & OMEGA of the motoring world.

[@AlfaGTA156]

Kenneth P nothing beats the Delta though🙃

[@connormarston5578]

Why didn’t they compare this Alfa to the 240hp F Pace? Much closer call.

[@laurence9618]

5th Gear team - you should have pitched the alpha against the 237bhp f pace 2.0 Diesel as its a much better match for power and performance (not price)

[@johnstringer9037]

The difference in price is why they didn't review them together

[@paulgregory777]

Then they should have used the 280bhp Stelvio... which would have won again... by an even greater margin... except fuel economy.

[@RoobehTunes]

Super happy to stumple upon this episode airing on Quest this evening. Great to see the old talent with current content! Honestly, the section on changing the ignition systems seemed a bit pointless beyond entertainment. Perhaps it would be better if it went in a more topical direction showing how modern systems work. It could go a bit nerdier and still fit the fifth gear ethos. Overall the show was great and I'm happy the formula's not been messed with. Looking forward to more.

[@SmashGhost]

[@Yodaandhislightsabre]

Since you don't know how to spell Alfa, what do you know about them?

[@laurence9618]

i would suggest to use the 237 bhp f pace for this as it has similar 0-60 times

[@unkn0wn12]

It will lose anyway

[@CarlitoElBrigante104]

yoof01 what about 2.9 biturbo v6 Quadrifoglio 510hp and Maserato Levante trofeo v8 biturbo 590hp....

[@Serena_9]

Carlo Calò Levante looks so ugly that’s why there aren’t many of them on the road. Porsche Cayenne would be a better choice, but the Jag is the best looking SUVs in the market right now.

[@christianolssontravels]

Carlo Calò or how about Jaguar XE project eight? Fastest four door around Nurburgring.

[@johnstringer9037]

237bhp Jag much more expensive than the 2.2 Alfa which is why they didn't test them together.

Of course it is. No understeer even on the SVR. It walked all over the QV in another comparison.

[@paulgregory777]

@@christianolssontravels Rediculous! The standard Stelvio is about 200kg lighter than the F-Pace, and handles much better. And the 2.0 280 is a rocket... 0 to 62mph in 5.7s. The Quadrafoglio is also faster than the SVR, and held the fastest lap of an SUV on the Nurburg Ring in 2017.

[@off-roadrcaddict4572]

Quadrifoglio vs SVR would be great.

[@philgooddr.7850]

Just see how "pace full" he drives the Stelvio with one hand and how he struggles to keep the i-pace on track. The body and head motion cannot lie and patching front rear unbalance with electronic garbage is an Audi type front heavy failure..Stelvio has biggest rear overhang and short cutted front of all SUV's, by far and the Nordschleife winner...only 20sec. slower than a Guilia Quadrifoglio better top speed but harder on tyres with higher CG height. Who said dogs???

[@tomgaydos9128]

Both amazing cars, although I strongly prefer the Alfa. I wonder why would they ever put the 2.2L Diesel engine in a shootout? The 2.0L Turbo is far superior and much more powerful. That's just a shame.

[@johnstringer9037]

Diesel engines are much more common and cheaper to run in the UK. They would not feature the 2.0 petrol engine in a review over here because hardly anyone would buy it.

Most people would still go for the Jag, it's much prettier and more practical. Easier to live with, service etc. and probably a bit more reliable. If speed were more the priority; go for a nearly new Macan... Alfa does some very beautiful cars like the Giulietta, but the Stelvio looks too short and dumpy.

Not necessarily a brilliant comparison, not between the cars in general, but the particular models tested. Stelvio was in sportiest trim with the more powerful diesel, F Pace was in the softest, most luxurious trim with the run of the mill diesel. If it was like for like, it would have been a lot closer.

[@MultiMideo]

Jaguars with left steering wheel have massive issue. Driver legroom is limited meaning pedals are towards centre so operate acclerator your right leg is in weird angle as centre tunnel gets wider clpser to the floor. Literally any drive over 15 minutes is very uncomfortable. As pedals are offset it also means breaking is compromised as steering column is in the way of knee. Massive dissapointment and engineering failure, seems to be issue with other models sharing same interior. Even with Alfas quality issues, Jag loses out no matter what you do.

Given both the power and weight advantage enjoyed by the Alfa, what was the point of this foregone conclusion exercise? Sure, Fifth Gear needs content however, track time, although interesting, is largely nonsensical. Surely fit & finish including comfort levels and economy would be the relevant aspect for a purchase decision? FFS.

[@bid84]

von Coconut They don’t have time to get into all that, they are race drivers with limited time. If you want facts figures specs etc... look at the countless reviews on KZbin car channels. Most of those reviews don’t put the car to test like these trained professionals. So stop being a moaning whingebag.

[@voncoconut5293]

Alan B. A little critical thinking wouldn't come to harm here, Alan. Why would race drivers with limited time waste that time getting lap times from a couple of oil burning SUV's? Millions have been spent in the design and manufacture of these cars and none of that effort had Jason Plato and Anglesey circuit in mind. The episode was a dull as dishwater however, if it caused you excitement why not take a garden chair to the nearest roundabout and watch the traffic go by. Incidentally, the answer to your question as to why 'trained professional race drivers' waste their time doing this - to everyone's embarrassment - is because it puts bread on their table.

[@paulgregory777]

I'm looking at buying either an F-Pace or Stelvio. My decision will largely be based on driving experience. And this video was definitely helpful in that respect. Think about it...
