Cost of ownership
What is the running and servicing costs of a Alfa Romeo Tonale?
All Alfa Romeo Tonale’s need servicing every 12 Months months or 15,000km km, whichever comes first.
How does the 2024 Alfa Romeo Tonale drive?
Our expert take on Alfa Romeo Tonale drivability.
The 2023 Alfa Romeo Tonale uses a turbocharged 1.5-litre four-cylinder engine producing 118kW of power at 5750rpm and 240Nm of torque at 1500rpm.
It’s mated with a 48V mild-hybrid system and a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission, and both the Ti and Veloce are front-wheel drive.
A 15.5kWh nickel-manganese-cobalt battery pack sits beneath the floor, good for up to 69km of electric driving on the WLTP combined test cycle. Alfa Romeo claims up to 80km of range in the city, we saw 55km on a loop including town driving, mountain roads, and some time on the motorway.
Claimed fuel economy is 1.4 litres per 100km, although that is contingent on having a full battery. On a 110km loop we saw 4.2L/100km.
The 100km/h sprint takes a claimed 6.2 seconds, and flat out you’ll be doing 135km/h in pure-electric mode, or 206km/h with the petrol engine contributing.

Should you buy the 2024 Alfa Romeo Tonale
Is this the right car for you? Out experts buy or not guide.
The Tonale won’t set your heart racing like a Giulia Quadrifoglio, but that isn’t really the point.
Based on our first taste it’s a handsome, nicely equipped alternative to the strong-selling German (and Swedish) establishment. The interior in particular sets the Tonale apart from its rivals, with an interesting design and solid cabin.
Plug-in hybrids are a niche corner of the Australian market. They’re not for everyone, and this particular PHEV won’t change that, but it does a good job blending electric and petrol power for those who can make a plug-in fit with their habits.
Its electric range is impressive, and the way the petrol engine interacts with the e-motor seems smart based on our brief time behind the wheel.
It’s also pretty quick in a straight line when the motor offers the petrol engine a hand, and the quick steering and clever torque vectoring gesture, albeit gently, at Alfa Romeo’s sporting past.
The Tonale PHEV shows plenty of potential. It’s a solid, if unremarkable, first step on the road to an all-electric Alfa brand.
