Getting you ready
for the Switch

The Tonale marked the metamorphosis of Alfa Romeo into a new era of electrification. It reinvents the sportiness that the brand has become renowned for while delivering all the authentic pleasure of driving an Alfa Romeo.

To experience Tonale, the most technologically advanced Alfa Romeo ever, see the team at the Switch Live area to organise your test drive.
