Out of the three hitches we have for your 2018 Alfa Romeo Stelvio the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver item # C13391 you referenced weighs the least at 35 lbs. This hitch is custom fit and bolts directly to your Alfa Romeo with included hardware. This hitch and the others will weigh more when you add a ball mount like the Curt Towing Starter Kit for 2" Hitches item # C45534. This towing kit will provide you with a 2" ball and a fixed ball mount with a 3/4" rise and 2" drop. It also includes a hitch pin and clip, hitch receiver lock with keys, hitch cover, and a storage case. This kit weighs 12 lbs and you will need it to haul a trailer.
If you are going to tow you will need a wiring harness. The Tekonsha T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector item # 118777 plugs into existing wiring and provides a 4-flat connector.
Here are the weights for the two other hitches available for your Alfa Romeo:
The Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver item # 76199 weighs 38 lbs.
The Stealth Hitches Hidden Trailer Hitch Receiver w/ Towing Kit item # SH54FRT weighs 73 lbs.
