Alfa Romeo Unveils 2026 Tonale Refresh With U.S. PHEV Dropped, Pricing Set

The update reflects a push to revive weak Tonale sales via a simpler lineup with region-specific powertrains.

Overview

  • The U.S. lineup now omits the plug-in hybrid, leaving a 268-hp 2.0-liter turbo four with a 9-speed automatic and standard all-wheel drive.
  • U.S. deliveries start before year-end, with the Sprint at about $39,745 and both Veloce and the new Sport Speciale at about $44,245.
  • The range is streamlined to three trims—Sprint, Veloce, and Sport Speciale—with available Brembo brakes, 18–20 inch wheels, and distinct exterior accents.
  • Updates include a new concave scudetto grille, wider tracks, fresh wheel designs, new colors, updated badging, and interior upgrades like contrast stitching and a red leather option.
  • Europe retains multiple powertrains updated to Euro 6E-bis, including 1.5-liter hybrid and 1.6-liter diesel options plus PHEVs rated at 187 hp and 266 hp.
