By GlobalDataPowering the vehicle is a 15.5-kWh lithium-ion battery that operates in conjunction with a 90-kW electric motor on the rear axle. The motor delivers 184 lb.-ft. (250 Nm) of torque from 0 rpm.
Total output is claimed to be a “best-in-class” 285hp and 347lb.-ft (470Nm) of torque.
In February 2022, Alfa Romeo claimed the Tonale was the “first car on the market equipped with a NFT (non-fungible token) digital certificate.” Utilising blockchain technology, the NFT serves as certification of purchase. The token “evolves” to reflect the vehicle’s usage and ensures the protection of the car’s residual value.
