In the powerful Tonale Plug-in Hybrid Q4, a turbo gasoline engine with a mild hybrid system and a power of 180hp moves the front wheels through a 6-speed automatic transmission, while an electric one with 122hp drives the rear. The 130 and 160 hp versions include a gasoline engine and a 48V electrical circuit with a 20hp electric motor, which is matched to the 7-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission. This feature enables pure electric drive under low load requirements, which drastically reduces gasoline consumption. In 160hp version in fact, the variable geometry turbo (VGT) completes the top technology.
