The Tonale Concept 2021 by Alfa Romeo in signature red

After the proven success of the Stelvio, many dreamed of a more urban SUV. In March 2019, Alfa Romeo proposed the Tonale Concept, revealed at the Geneva Motor Show. To our great pleasure, it should soon be unveiled in its final form in 2021!

Des Sources Alfa Romeo, your Alfa Romeo dealer of choice in Montreal, tells you all about the one that should be called the 2021, or 2022, Alfa Romeo Tonale!

An exterior design that should seduce in Dollard-des-Ormeaux

What seduced the public when the Tonale concept SUV was unveiled in 2019 was its looks. Although no official information was released on the production version, an internal source mentioned by Motor1.com believes that the final version will retain most of the design of the concept SUV.

If that's the case, expect to be seduced at first glance! Alfa Romeo's V-shaped grille, aggressively crenellated head and tail lights as well as muscular sides: the Tonale Concept was already a pure styling success! Knowing that the final variant of the 2021 or 2022 Alfa Romeo Tonale will benefit from almost all of these elements, the Tonale Concept should be the center of attention when it arrives at dealerships in the West Island!

Surely Unrivalled Technical Features!

As for the engines, here again, nothing has been unveiled by Alfa Romeo Canada. Nevertheless, several predictions have emerged in the trade press. Again according to Motor1.com, the Alfa Romeo SUV would borrow its engines from the Jeep Renegade, with a plug-in hybrid version topping the offer with about 250 horsepower.

According to CarBuzz.com, however, the Alfa Romeo Tonale is more likely to be available with a turbocharged two-litre thermal engine combined with a 48V mild hybrid system. Thus outfitted, the 2021 or 2022 Tonale would offer a combined output of around 330 horsepower.

Hence, the technical data around the Tonale is still very unclear. But if we look at the engine lineup of the 2021 Stelvio, we can expect performance but also highly technological engines. Moreover, the hypothesis of a hybrid version as outlined above is quite likely. Indeed, the 2019 Tonale Concept was already using this type of engine to move.

But one thing is certain: the new transalpine SUV will offer a unique and pleasurable driving experience in the DDO sector, and more broadly in Montreal!

Interior similar to the Tonale Concept, highly technological and luxurious!

The interior should also be similar to that of the Tonale Concept. At least that's what CarBuzz.com suggests.

If that's the case, we should therefore be entitled to a sleek but very Italian interior, with among other things, oblique lines and round air vents. The site also predicts that the materials used will be of the highest quality. The same interior should also feature the latest technology in terms of support and connectivity.

So while the Alfa Romeo SUV's on-board equipment data is vague, the Alfa Romeo Tonale should offer everything you need for everyday use in the West Island!

All in all, the new Italian SUV promises to be an exceptional vehicle. Interior and exterior styling, performance that should overshadow the segment's leaders, and advanced technologies: this is what seems to prefigure all the information currently available.

According to the Spanish-language website Motor.es, the vehicle is scheduled to debut in the summer of 2021 as a 2022 model year, and to be launched in Europe in November. The U.S. will have to wait until February 2022, while no information is available for Canada. So, if you have any questions about the exact release date and prices of the 2022 or 2021 Alfa Romeo Tonale, please contact us or drop by Dollard-des-Ormeaux without delay!
