Introduction
What Car? says...
Battery technology has come a long way since Italian inventor Alessandro Volta created the first usable one back in 1799, enabling every version of the Alfa Romeo Tonale family SUV to get some form of electrical assistance.
The ‘bread and butter’ Tonale is a hybrid with a tiny 0.8kWh pack, and unlike many mild-hybrids, it can travel for short distances at low speeds on electric power alone.
So, aside from all this new gadgetry, is the Alfa Romeo Tonale one of the best family SUVs you get, and does it live up to Alfa’s sporting heritage despite the use of hybrid engines?
We'll answer all your questions over the next few pages of this review, which addresses performance, practicality, running costs and much more. We'll also tell you how the Tonale compares with rival cars, including the Audi Q3, BMW X1, Hyundai Tucson, Kia Sportage and Volvo XC40.
When you've decided which car to buy, you can find the lowest price by searching our free What Car? New Car Buying service. It could save you thousands of pounds off the list price of a Tonale, and has lots of the best new family SUV deals.
