Alfa Romeo's first compact SUV, the Tonale, will be officially released on February 8. Recently, foreign media once again took a set of test spy photos of new cars.
As can be seen from the spy photos, the front face of the new car is basically the same as the previous concept car on the trailer, and it has a highly recognizable wave-breaking LED light with headlight group and the brand's iconic inverted triangle grille. The front bumper section has an oversized penetrating lower grille with a special forked shape in the center, which further enhances the recognition.
On the side of the body, the new car can be seen as a smaller Stelvio model, of course, due to the use of a transverse pre-platform, there is a slight change in the proportion of details, but what remains unchanged is the C-pillar shape with a large inclined angle, a low-rise sports body and other elements, in line with the brand's positioning.
In the rear part of the car, the new car adopts the popular through-type taillights, and there are wavy red light strips corresponding to the headlights on the left and right sides, which is both avant-garde and fashionable. In addition, the tail box does not have too many lines, only a large prominence in the sports shape of the carriage, and the rear bumper part has a special decoration corresponding to the front bar, which draws a satisfactory end to the design of the whole car.
In terms of the interior of the first exposure, although there is no panoramic picture, it can be seen through spy photos that the new car adopts the popular suspension large-size LCD screen design concept, which is of course completely different from the previous embedded on Stelvio, in line with the cutting-edge design of the new car in 2022, and also coincides with the more youthful positioning of the model, and the dashboard part still seems to be unwilling to use a full LCD design, similar to the current Alpha Romeo model, only a screen LCD screen of about 4 inches, Used to display information such as speed.
In terms of power, since the new car will be built on the Guider platform, or will use the 1.3T four-cylinder engine commonly found on FCA models, of course, the engine can burst out more than 180 horsepower of strong power, there is no need to worry too much in terms of performance. At the same time, light hybrid and even plug-in hybrid models are also expected to be launched. The new car will start overseas sales later this year, and it is worth looking forward to when it will be introduced into China in the future.
