Alfa Romeo Tonale
Alfa Romeo Tonale — spec data and generation history.

Alfa's small/mid SUV, on the Stellantis 'Small Wide LWB' platform shared with the Jeep Compass — Alfa's first PHEV. UK gets 1.5 mild-hybrid (160 bhp) and the Q4 plug-in hybrid (281 bhp combined, 1.3 turbo + rear axle motor) giving full-time AWD with electric rear. EV range around 42 miles WLTP. Veloce trim brings stiffer dampers, bigger brakes, the proper steering wheel. The styling is the strong suit; underneath it's a Compass with prettier shoes. PHEV is the one if you can charge — pure-petrol 1.5 MHEV is fine but not class-leading.
