A compact SUV as a beacon of hope: The Alfa Romeo Tonale is intended to compete with the VW Tiguan, lead the brand out of the crisis and bridge the time until the first purely electric models. The crossover does not meet all requirements.
Has Alfa Romeo lost its shine – or just started to new heights? A decade ago, a sales target of 400,000 vehicles was on the agenda. Only 60,000 cars were sold by the Italo brand last year (around half of them in the USA). The German competitors are far ahead, so the integration into the Stellantis group together with Maserati, Fiat and Opel was the last resort.
