More about the Alfa Romeo Tonale

Both versions of the Tonale have an automatic gearbox with seven speeds on the Hybrid 160 and six on the PHEV. Controlling the vehicle is effortless with light steering and excellent body control.

The driving position in the Tonale is comfortable with plenty of adjustment options to make travelling as comfortable as it can be. The visibility of the driver is also excellent and is assisted by all-around parking sensors as well as a rearview camera as standard. If you require better visibility still, you can upgrade to a 360-degree camera system.

Thanks to its next-generation software architecture, the Tonale offers a full set of technological innovations. It’s the first car to come complete with an NFT blockchain certification, and features the Amazon Alexa voice assistant, allowing you to take advantage of exclusive Amazon services giving you an elevated onboard experience.

The Tonale also includes a 10.3” infotainment screen with Android Auto and wireless Apple CarPlay connectivity. The screen has sharp graphics that are continued onto the instrumental panel behind the steering wheel.

The head and leg room in the Tonale is ample enough for taller passengers in both the front and rear of the vehicle, and the back seats split 60/40 to fold down into additional boot space. Even without the folded seats, the boot offers 500 litres of space and is a handy square shape to make loading easy. The floor of the boot itself is adjustable and boosts versatility and space when required.

What's my Towing Capacity?

The towing capacity for the Tonale varies depending on the model, but some models can tow up to 1,500kg. The specific towing limit for your vehicle can be found on the VIN plate, and this must be referred to before booking your towbar installation.

Which Towbar is best for my Alfa Romeo Tonale?

There are three different towbars available for the Alfa Romeo Tonale, the fixed flange towbar, the fixed swan neck towbar, and the detachable swan neck towbar.

The fixed flange towbar is a permanent style of towbar that is fixed to the vehicle’s chassis. The fixed flange towbar is fitted with a plate which allows for bolt-on accessories to attach to the towbar leaving the towball hitch-free. The fixed flange towbar is the only style of towbar that is compatible with all styles of cycle carriers, although it can also tow caravans and trailers. If you intend to tow a caravan with an ALKO stabiliser, the fixed flange would require an ALKO towball to be fitted beforehand.

The fixed swan neck is another style of fixed towbar; however, the swan is much thinner in its design. The fixed swan neck towbar is popular with drivers whose Tonale is fitted with rear parking sensors. The thin design of the towbar neck offers a lot more clearance between the towbar and the rear parking sensors making it a lot less likely to cause interference with the parking sensors when the car is in reverse. The fixed swan neck towbar is AKLO compatible which means that no ALKO ball is required when towing a caravan with an ALKO stabiliser. The fixed swan neck is compatible with all clamp-on cycle carriers, caravans and trailers.

The detachable swan neck is identical to the fixed swan neck towbar but with one main difference, the towbar neck can detach from its housing when towing has been completed. The detachable neck is easily removed using a twist and push method, once the neck has been removed the electric socket will flip up underneath the bumper. The detachable neck is the perfect choice for drivers who wish to retain the look of their bumper, as once the towbar neck has been removed the vehicle will return to its pre-towbar state with all traces of a towbar practically invisible. The detachable swan neck towbar is compatible with all styles of clamp-on-cycle carriers, trailers, and caravans.

Will it need a bumper cut?

When fitting a towbar to the Alfa Romeo Tonale a small non-visible bumper cut is made to the vehicle's undertray. This bumper cut would only be visible when looking underneath the vehicle. Our informative towbar engineer will discuss any modifications required for your vehicle's bumper before starting the installation. Our helpful sales team are also on hand to discuss any queries you may have about your towbar installation.
