Alfa Romeo’s first premium compact SUV has landed, but is the Tonale enough to pull customers away from the BMW X1s and Audi Q3s of this world? James Dennison tests a 158bhp hybrid Veloce version to find out.

Styling-wise at least, this Tonale looks just as great as other Alfas 😄❤
CAR photography has always been the leader, and this video matches that quality ... plus, great review. CAR keep going with this content, you should have a million subs on TH-cam which can make more than the magazine ....
Thanks Ross!
Great review.
Well structured, to the point and very informative. 👌
Thank you!
My dream car. Nothing more, nothing less.
AR has a huge history on FWD layout. They now just need to make it work magic.
Best review I've watched so far of any Alfa done by a person who knows and understands the Alfa ethos and not by reviewers who love to complain about scratchy plastics or compare to German blah blah blah...........
Thanks JohnAthow
Very good review presentation excellent .👍🏻
Thanks!
Movie quality CAR such a brilliant video - as an Alfaholic love that we get a new car in 2022 and hope this sells well to sustain the brand - we need some flair in this segment to offset the segments ubiquitous choices - la dolce vita 🎉
Thanks Malcolm 👌
Love the rear and interior
I'm so fed up of theses 'informant' screens. I don't want to scroll through pages to put my heated seat on...just a button
Stunning looking car
Why have I not seen a nighttime ambient lighting video. Literally seen around 200 videos
I wonder what's inside in the green boxes near the road
It's beautiful. Sad to hear the engineering doesn't match the looks.
Big Alpha fan waiting for the full plug in hopefully they sort a couple of issues by then.
Plug in = yawn.
CENTAURI?
Seems like a very nice car 👍
At least an Italian car, which can somehow compete with others without embarrassment!
Nice, but upgrade the Stelvio Q asap!
I see hints of pre facelift 156 in those headlights, particularly the inside edges.
I had a dream last night that everyone in my village was driving pre facelift red 156s. It was great.
@@MD-uu5nt That's an odd dream. And a totally awesome dream too.
@@AdamAus85 haha I know. A world like that could only exist in the imaginary....or parts of Italy in 1998.
this guy is beautiful and made for presenting an ALfa
Great review. Unfortunately haven’t seen a US version… only the Dodge Hornet.
“Sinister online stalker” 💀💀💀
The Dodge Hornet the sister CUV to this gets. A 2.0 liter 265 hp AWD . Then will get a R/T version hybrid.
Gorgeous car
Great car!🤩
Fantastic scenery, where is that? I want to go there.
Cumbria.
Yorkshire Dales!
Beautiful🇮🇹🇮🇹👍
The rear window ”Windows Peak” isn’t from the 8C but first appeared on the Alfa 145 in the mid 90’s. No news to you, as an Alfaholic? 😉 Also, to be correct:
Both this and the Jeep Compass are based on Fiat 500X
Now, if you were a true Alfaholic you’d know that the 8C model name was also used in the 1930s - during which one of the many derivatives featured the 8C line for the first time 😉
@@CARmagazineTV 😊 Would’ve been a touché moment if I could find a rear window with that bottom shape on any of the 8C’s of the 30’s…?
Oh never mind! Keep up the good work!
This goes all the way back to the 2005 FIAT Grande Punto and 2006 Vauxhall Corsa, even the Alfa MiTo, they’ve definitely got their moneys worth out of it. But, the Tonale is a really good car
Great review thanks. Such a good looking thing - just the performance seems a bit of let down. A 9 sec 0-60 is pretty slow and beaten easily by some fairly ordinary cars both fossil fuel and electric. A bit more zip would really make it more Alfa. Other than that, like it a lot.
Actually it does 0-60 in 5.7s.
Definitely not 5.7 on this model!
belt starter generator. yeah my 2018 citroen work van has that old tech.
maybe the facelift 3 years later will fix the powertrain problems?
How imagine if it was the low and sexy replacement for 159/brera n not a suv
The face lift gulia is the answer to ur dream
Anybody else using Tonale reviews to judge the Dodge Hornet? Same vehicle from what I'm understanding with 265hp.
They don’t drive the same and the Alfa looks nicer
They won’t drive the same as the Dodge is getting better power supplies.
The hornet is what, 9hp more than the tonale, plus a short term 25hp power shot. Not a huge difference. Both sound plenty powerful enough. The alfa looks better inside and out, but pricing and servicing costs will be interesting.
In America, the Mazda CX-5/CX-50 basically make this vehicle obsolete, especially given the price point.
Front lights look like a 159...👍
Love the brand, just not sure the little Jeep underpinnings are right for the job. . .
How a bout quality-wise!?!!
Why is the UK only getting black interiors 😢 #alfaromeo
Pity the interior only comes in black ☹️
Am I the only one seeing mazda cx5 in it ?
Looks fast but that's where it ends for me. It's a slightly below average run of the mill SUV with good looks but not much else and a hefty price tag. Plug ins just suck !! I'd rather go for the Stelvio TI. Good summary of the video. It's a shit car right now but in 5 years it will be better when everything has turned electric.
An Alfa Tonale Veloce PHEV has as much sportiness, equal torque and adjustable suspension, more room in the back, all wheel drive, muuuch better looks, interior, visibility, more quiet interior and much much better gas mileage!!!! Why why would someone take this over that????!!!!!! Especially since Honda will mark up the price but 10k!!!! Plus, the resale on the Alfa will be garbage next year and a steal!!!!!!! Honda can screw themselves with the dealer markups. Plus, the Veloce will be a better collectible and nice when gas hits $7 a gallon.
It's only ever gonna be known as the Toe Nail here!
Not sure what this has over an X1.
Not a damn thing. This exercise was a complete waste of their time.
Personally I hate the BMW brand image so if I was in the market for one of these I would look.
Alfa interiors are always nicer and more stylish than anything German.
It's not a BMW........there's that
IMVHO, modern BMWs are a but m'eh, at best
@@kidoctane Except their sedans.
small suv... crossover just call it crossover
158bhp... but why?
Because target market for this model doesn't require 300bhp.
Are you going to ask the same questions for the leaders of C-Segment like the X1, Q3, GLA? Base X1 has 136 hp, Q3 has 150 hp and GLA has also 136 hp.
@@ig828 Where they all launch editions in that trim? Cause a Alfa, which istn sporty, is kinda fancy Fiat.
Emissions regulations.
Have you ever driven a car? 158 is well than enough for normal driving and some fun accelerations. Also, emission regulations are getting more strict.
I cant believe its called a toe nail
So all things considered…an unfinished product.
Rather have the Hornet! Ouch!
Tiny engine super model looks in the SUV segment
The hybrid is marketing and PC virtue signaling
IMHO
I'm an Alfa Fan, I have a Stelvio. The Tonale looks like a cartoon car and drives like a small Jeep. Not for me.
No one in the US will buy this vehicle, I think it is a waste to even release it here.
STONK......KIT KIT KIT DULLARD FROM DOWNUNDER GBU
Grossly overpriced like all these electrical vehicles.
Don’t buy the @alfaRomeo Tonale, had the car for a month and it caused me to have an accident because it’s faulty. Worse customer service. Parts are taking 3 to 4 months to be delivered.
Big mistake by Alfa Romeo. The last thing we need is another stupid SUV on the market. What we do need is a cool retro inspired convertible or fastback coupe. Now that would be exciting.
Oh FFS Alfa need to make money. A convertible or fastback coupe is not going to make money. The 4c was a massive mistake from Alfa as it lost millions...
How can a Alfa be based on a Jeep. Stellantis are diluting the name of one the greatest names , ever.Leave Alfa alone, stick to Pug and Vauxhall Stellantis, give Alfa big engines free from restrictions of the green boys and let the brand live, Alfa means soul fizz and desire.This model at this price, failure.
The chassis is actually a Derivative of the Fiat Small Wide that underpins the Compass,Renegade,500x,Cherokee and the Tonale and the Hornet. Alfa needs this platform until the STLA Small,Medium and Large Platforms are ready for production. Without these small CUV Alfa will not survive on Big Engine and being free of restrictions. Times are changing !
You know Mercedes have vehicles based on Renault's in this segment? Mercedes also have plenty of heritage and it doesn't hurt their image....
Yes, this and the Maserati levante are fkn Fiats and Chrysler's in a fancy dress
@@MybeautifulandamazingPrincess Chryslers were always Italianized lol
@@TFSIChristmas After they became FCA
It saddens me greatly to say...Alfa you are dead to me.
OK, maybe being a wee bit melodramatic, but I fear my current Alfa Giulietta maybe my last, after almost 28 years of Alfa ownership
The Giulia would be a great upgrade
ОТСТОЙ , КИА , МАЗДА , ХЮНДАЙ - С шильдиком Альфа 👎 ! ! ! Пейзажи 👍 Добавте Натюрморты ! 👍
i cant believe this is a dodge hornet what a waste.
Hornet will have different powertrain all together. It uses the 1.3 Turbo 177hp and 210 ft lbs of torque for the Base Model with Hybrid system it adds another 20hp and 60 ft lbs. and the Upper Trims are using the 2.0l Hurricane with a Hybrid powertrain. 285 hp and 383 ft lbs of torque isn't the same as the UK market versions !
The Dodge is an Alfa, not the other way around. Americans can't design cars.
@@normaluser5755 It's still a Dodge.
@@bigmacdaddy1234 so what? Dodge are a legendary name too. If it helps Alfa achieve economies of scale then what is the problem?
An Audi Q3 is a VW/Skoda/Seat too....Skoda and Seat are hardly more glamorous brands than Dodge. They were both government founded brands.....
@@normaluser5755 what a dumb comment
It is pretty hilarious to me how much more advanced Honda's hybrid system is by being simpler. Only morons will purchase this car.
Morons? Comments such as yours makes you a moron! Moron!
I am a super happy moron then. Drive it and then talk...
Infiniti qx70 is a million x better than Maserati levante
Interior....is terrible 😔
Terrible looking car and not worth it instant flop !
Terrible vehicle to drive and incredibly overpriced. They took years to release a half baked product. Im not even going to speculate on the reliability of a French owned, Italian built Jeep...Lucky for Alfa most SUV buyers are clueless about the vehicles they buy so it should do well
but it looks like toe nail and for that...im out lol
In ROK, republic of Korea, we can't buy any Alfas...
your lucky
@@Jz-vd5zg Only an idiot, seriously, an idiot, comes to watch a video of a vehicle brand they don't like, and then comments to the rest of us that they're terrible. GTFOH. And it's "you're". Another sign of intelligence.
Good for you.
