The Alfa Romeo Stelvio Quadrifoglio is one of the most powerful production SUVs on the South African market, [carrying a price tag of approximately R2.5 million].
Powered by a 2.9-litre twin-turbocharged V6 engine producing 375 kW, the vehicle is a performance-oriented variant of Alfa Romeo's flagship SUV.
The Quadrifoglio badge, derived from the Italian word for four-leaf clover, has long been associated with the brand's motorsport heritage.
Timing ahead of All Blacks clash
The post arrived at a particularly high-profile moment for Kriel, with the Springboks preparing for a Rugby Championship fixture against New Zealand.
As one of the first-choice back-three players in the South African setup, Kriel has been a consistent performer for the national side in recent seasons. His Instagram post drew attention not only for the vehicle on display but also for the message it carried — that preparation, both on and off the field, remains a constant.
Kriel's caption reinforced the dual identity that many modern professional athletes maintain, balancing elite sporting commitments with brand partnerships and commercial visibility.
