Piaggio-owned Italian bikemaker, Moto Guzzi, has revealed the road-focused adventure bike in the international market, called the Stelvio. The Moto Guzzi Stelvio became a mainstay in the Italian manufacturer's lineup ever since its introduction but had to face a brief hiatus due to its dwindling sales. While performance figures won't be revealed until the EICMA trade show in Milan, we do know that the Stelvio is built on the same platform that also underpins the V100 Mandello sport-tourer. Consequently, a 1,042cc, 90-degree longitudinal V-twin, liquid-cooled engine will power the Stelvio bike. For reference, this motor on the Mandello produces 113bhp at 8,700rpm and 105Nm of peak torque at 6,750rpm. Importantly, the engine has been calibrated to meet Euro5+ emission regulations and is nourished via a 21-litre fuel tank, good enough for a claimed range of 402km.

Moto Guzzi Stelvio: Hardware
The cycle parts used are quite similar for both the V100 Mandello and the Stelvio, which is expected to feature a tubular steel trellis frame. The suspension setup consists of 46mm upside-down front forks and a rear monoshock, both fully adjustable. However, the main difference comes in the form of the tyres these bikes come wrapped in. The Stelvio rolls on 19-inch front and 17-inch rear wire-spoke wheels shod with tubeless dual-purpose tyres, whereas the V100 Mandello comes with a 17/17-inch wheel setup.
Moto Guzzi Stelvio: Features/Rider Aids
Besides a 5.0-inch TFT display and switchgear, the Stelvio gets traction control, cornering ABS, cruise control, and 5 customisable riding modes. Interestingly, the Moto Guzzi Stelvio is also offered with the optional Piaggio Fast Forward Rider Assistance Solution, which uses 4D Imaging Radar technology enabling enhanced safety features such as collision detection, adaptive cruise control, and blind spot monitoring. Moreover, the bike is also kitted out with a range of accessories like a larger 52-litre top case, panniers, handy side bags, and heated seats.

Moto Guzzi has not yet disclosed the pricing information for the new Stelvio model. The company is, however, expected to reveal this and much more at the upcoming EICMA 2023, where the Stelvio and other Guzzis will be making a comeback. The trade show is scheduled to take place from November 7 to November 12, 2023. And for those expecting the Stelvio to make its entry in India, it is highly unlikely that the bike will come here.
