Saw this on FB

look like a Porsche Cayenne/Macan and that has been out for a decade

buy a Stelvio, cheaper and far prettier

Agree with Dem completely!..........looks just like a Porsche and who wants one of those??

Definitely go for a Stelvio instead. With the money you save you can always then go and buy an old Cayenne/Macan thing if you feel the need

If I were forced to buy a hybrid or electric SUV - without consideration to tax breaks and all that malarkey - being very naive and shallow, on looks alone, I’d go for the new Alfa Toenail.

Yeah! Nice alternative if we must. Pity they only offer 275 BHP so far. Is there more power in the offing for the future?

I don’t like the way in which we’re all going to be forced down the electric route but at least some manufacturers are coming up with some nice designs in an attempt to ease the pain.

Also, remember the way we were told that diesel was the way to go and they made it so easy to follow that route. Then, suddenly we found ourselves being told how bad they were and we got hit with extra taxation in order to “offset our carbon footprint”. Are the government’s green division going to pull the same stunt in the future when we’ve all committed to EV’s or am I just being too suspicious??

Why should an SUV have more power? Surely that's what the GT and MC20 are all about?

The Toenail does look ok... but you'll be nudging £50k for the perky one with a couple of options (if you do the new thang).
