 The Pomigliano factory will be closed from 3 to 28 August for the modernization work necessary for the production of the Tonale, arriving in 2021. FULL EMPLOYMENT  - In view of the arrival in production of the compact  Alfa Romeo Tonale  suv  , whose arrival in dealerships is expected in the second half of  2021  , the Campania factory in Pomigliano d'Arco will stop to be updated: closing is from Monday 3 to Friday 28 August.  According to union sources reported by the newspaper   Il Mattino  , the works will involve the bodywork, logistics and quality control departments, which will be improved, but the installation of new robots and mechanical grippers is also planned;  the interventions follow those started in September 2019, when the factory stood still for six days.  The FCA has allocated 1 billion euros for the renovation of  Pomigliano , where the Fiat Panda will also continue to be produced, with the aim of a...

REVIEW THE HYBRID  - The delay would be to be found in the decision of the new CEO of  Alfa Romeo   , Jean-Philippe Imparato, who ...

THE LAUNCH DATES  - The  Alfa Romeo Tonale  is almost a reality, but in the final phase of its development comes a revision of the project.  As reported by the  Alfa Romeo Projec  t  Facebook page  , normally well informed (presumably by someone inside the company), the delay we mentioned  here  is due to a cost containment wanted by the top management of the Stellantis group.  The deep throat also reveals further details, such as the presentation of the Tonale (  above in a   spy  photo  dating back to 2019,   here  to find out more) which should take place in September 2021, with the opening of pre-orders in November and the delivery of the first units under construction "launch edition" in February 2022. At the end of the same month, the deli...
