Alfa Romeo is a popular Italian luxury car manufacturer. They are well known for their sports vehicles and have competed successfully in Grand Prix motor racing, Formula One, touring car racing, sports car racing and other rallies.
Alfa Romeo recently announced their intentions to create more electric vehicles for commercial markets in the future, becoming a fully electric brand by 2027. They announced that the first step towards this would be fully electrifying their popular Alfa Romeo Giulia model for release in 2027.
Currently, Alfa Romeo offers PHEVs as a step towards going electric. To get the most out of your Alfa Romeo PHEV, or EV, if you decide to pre-order, you'll need high-quality, efficient charging equipment.

Alfa Romeo EVs Charging Cables
It's very important to have high-quality charging cables to get the most out of your EV or PHEV. While low-quality cables may also come with a low price tag, they can lead to energy loss, loss of battery efficiency, and even damage your electric vehicle over time.
The Alfa Romeo Tonale, like most modern EVs and PHEVs, is compatible with Type 2 charging cables. At Smartly, we stock a range of premium quality chargers compatible with Alfa Romeo PHEVs:

Alfa Romeo EV Chargers
Though an at-home charging set-up may seem like a large investment, it will save you a lot of money in the long run. By taking advantage of things such as off-peak charging times, you can cut your charging costs significantly by not having to rely on expensive public chargers.
For the Alfa Romeo Tonale PHEV, we recommend a single-phase 7.4kW charger:
You can find the full selection of chargers on our website. We do not recommend three-phase chargers for home usage, as most homes will not have a suitable three-phase power supply to accommodate them.
The length of time it takes to charge your Alfa Romeo PHEV will depend on the type of charger that you use. It's important to use high-quality charging cables and charging points to get the most efficient charge from your EV.
A full charge for the Alfa Romeo Tonale PHEV will take approximately:
- 7.5 hours using a 3-pin emergency plug.
- 4.5 hours using a 3.6kW charger.
- 2.5 hours using a 7.4kW charger.
- 2.5 hours using a 22kW charger.
Note that the Tonale is not compatible with rapid public chargers. For maximum charging efficiency, Alfa Romeo recommends using a 7.4kW charger.
Investing in a home setup can save you lots of money in the long run, as you won't have to rely on expensive public chargers; there are even government grants to help you afford it.
