Hi! I'm about to order the Tonale Veloce (green, of course!) with the 20" wheels. I'm curious to know your opinion of the larger wheels and the pros and cons of the "20's compared with the 19" or even 18" wheels. Thanks very much for your review. Very helpful. Best regards from sunny Spain!
Thanks, glad you enjoyed the review and that it was helpful! Well larger wheels generally look nicer but will lead to a bit more discomfort and road noise.
Also... can it be expected that the panoramic sunroof will reduce the interior head height in the rear seats? How much reduction can I expect? Any ideas? Thanks again!
Indeed, it'll reduce a little bit of the headroom; don't have a figure at hand but that might be worth asking Alfa Romeo about, or even trying it for yourself to see if the change is noticeable.
The Alfa is the better bet if you want something a bit more engaging to drive and subjectively its design (inside and out) are better. However, the Cupra is more practical and boats much better fuel economy. So, really depends as to what you're looking for!
@@TotallyEV Thank you very much for your prompt answer. You are my benchmark when deciding on my purchase - Cupra is my choice due to several factors despite Tonale being better specced and with better infotainment system - better priced, special and exclusive look, similar power with less heavy chassis, better driving experience plus the ones you already mentioned. Cheers!
@@TotallyEV You know what I mean dog...Every time a "UA-cam Auto Journalist" reviews an Alfa they always throw in "reliability" nonsense (and I'm not saying you did) but if people were truly honest they would know that German cars are WAY OVER RATED when it comes to reliability. FORZA ALFA BABY !!!! THE KING IS BACK !!!!

I ordered a red PHEV in Veloce trim+options (special deal with most that matter) for my next car in Fin. Renting.
Very nice, enjoy!

Hi mate! I'm torn between this Alfa phev 280 hp and Cupra Formentor phev 245 hp. Which would you chose overall? Thanks

@@TotallyEV You don't agree ?
About German reliability (more accurately lack thereof) ?
