The plug-in hybrid version of its new Tonale small SUV has gone on sale in Australia, priced from a chunky $77,500 before on-roads for the Alfa Romeo Tonale PHEV. The price puts the Alfa Romeo Tonale PHEV Q4 in line with full electric small SUV rivals such as the Volvo XC40 Pure Electric ($73,990) or Mercedes-Benz EQA 250 ($81,700).

I think about the new Hyundai Kona Electric (from around $60,000 drive away with 340km range) and fellow Euro Volvo EX30 (around $65,000 drive away, 480km range) and realise it’s a tough playground for my Frenchy to play in. Then they sling a price tag on to practically ensure you don’t. You’re a smart little SUV.
