Iconic Italian brand Alfa Romeo has launched a product offensive right into the Porsche Macan's heart, with the launch of the new Stelvio Quadrifoglio. This 503bhp super-SUV is equipped with a 2.9-litre twin-turbocharged V6 engine, and offers more performance than just about anything else in its class.

With a 0-60 time of less than 3.8 seconds, the Stelvio QV undercuts the fastest Porsche Macan – the Turbo with Performance Pack - by 0.6 seconds. That it has 503bhp to the Macan's 434bhp may help matters. It will go on to a top speed of 176mph – just 10mph down on the so-called 'fastest SUV in the world', the Bentley Bentayga.
