Formula 1 drivers test the new Alfa Romeo Tonale Plug-In Hybrid Q4

Alfa Romeo Tonale Plug-In Hybrid Q4

The traditional pre-season retreat of the Alfa Romeo F1 team was held at the Sauber Motorsport factory in Hinwil (CH), which serves as the team's headquarters. The retreat took place this year as well. The squad got together in an atmosphere of unity and focused on discussing the plans and goals for the forthcoming world championship. This was done on the strength of the sixth-place finish gained in the 2022 season, which was the best performance in the previous ten years.

Along with the rest of the management team, the drivers for the Alfa Romeo F1 Team, Valtteri Bottas and Zhou Guanyu, will soon begin the 2023 season with the first testing on the new single-seater and were unable to miss the crucial appointment. The goal is to bring all of the energy and enthusiasm that goes into the work of the team out onto the track.

Alfa Romeo Tonale Plug-In Hybrid Q4

The new Alfa Romeo Tonale Plug-In Hybrid Q4, which is the range's most powerful model and helps define the "Efficient Sportiness" paradigm, will be the star of the show alongside the drivers who will be testing it. When put through its paces by two experienced drivers, the Alfa Romeo Tonale Plug-In Hybrid Q4 displayed the signature driving enjoyment that is unique to Alfa Romeo vehicles. This pleasure is characterized by best-in-class agility, lightness, and driving dynamics. In particular, the dynamic test consisted of a reactivity test in which the two drivers competed against one another in an exhilarating slalom that was marked by a series of "doors" fitted with sensors that gradually lit up as the car passed by, thereby defining the route that needed to be navigated by the drivers.

Alfa Romeo Tonale Plug-In Hybrid Q4

The Alfa Romeo Tonale Plug-In Hybrid Q4, which will soon be available in all Alfa Romeo dealerships, rounds out the lineup of the Tonale, the first vehicle the brand produces that is electrified. According to Alfa Romeo, the new top-of-the-line model is the first step towards the sportiness of the future. Alfa Romeo is radically evolving and projecting into the new era of connectivity and electrification while remaining faithful to its DNA of noble Italian sportiness since 1910. The new top-of-the-line model is expected to go on sale later this year.

Alfa Romeo Tonale Plug-In Hybrid Q4

With CO2 emissions of up to 26g/km, the Alfa Romeo Tonale Plug-In Hybrid Q4 is the most efficient Alfa Romeo ever produced. This allows for free access to city centers, over 80 km of fully electric range for maximum daily mobility, and up to 600 km of overall range for tackling long extra-urban journeys. 

Alfa Romeo Tonale Plug-In Hybrid Q4

The Alfa RomeoTonale Plug-In Hybrid Q4 is the expression of the new paradigm of "Efficient Sportiness," and it is the most efficient Alfa Romeo ever produced. The efficiency and sustainability of the Alfa Romeo Tonale Plug-In Hybrid Q4 are combined with the highest possible level of sportiness. Its overall output of 280 horsepower places it at the top of the segment, and it can accelerate from 0 to 100 kilometers per hour in just 6.2 seconds. Its highest speed in all-electric mode is 135 kilometers per hour, and its top speed in hybrid mode can reach 206 kilometers per hour. Because of the instantaneous torque produced by the electric motor, the e-AWD system amplifies the feeling of power that can be achieved during acceleration. The response of the rear axle is immediate as soon as the accelerator pedal is pressed because of the instantaneous torque produced by the electric motor.
