Rumors and expectations about the new Moto Guzzi V100 Stelvio have gained momentum, and now spy shots have emerged, giving us a glimpse of what could be the much-anticipated adventure-biased version of the V100 Mandello. The Moto Guzzi V100 Stelvio’s off-road character is evident in the first spy shots, setting it apart from its Mandello sibling.
The anticipation for the V100 Stelvio was sparked by a display at the 2022 EICMA show—a spoked wheel with the name ‘Stelvio’ underneath it, hinting at the bike’s development. And now, the recently surfaced spy photos, shared by Motociclismo, shed light on the Stelvio’s adventure-oriented design changes.
Distinctive features of the Stelvio, as revealed in the spy photos, include spoked wheels, including a larger 19-inch front wheel. These wheels differentiate it from the Mandello. While the Stelvio retains the Mandello’s signature front light, the front bodywork has seen slight modifications.
Additionally, the Stelvio boasts extended suspension travel for improved off-road capabilities. Other off-road enhancements comprise heightened ground clearance, hand guards, a skid plate, and a windshield positioned higher than that of the Mandello.
Technological advancements are also present in the Stelvio. Front radar, likely intended for various electronic aids like adaptive cruise control, is a notable addition. Rear radar, which aids in blind spot warnings transmitted through LED lights in the mirrors, further enhances safety.
While an official confirmation and detailed specifications from the manufacturer are yet to surface, a reasonable estimation places the potential unveiling of the V100 Stelvio during the second week of November, possibly in Milan.
