The fact that so little was changed from the Tonale interior to the Hornet only points out how much Stellantis relies on common switchgear. I've driven a couple Stelvios (Stelvi?) and noticed the same thing as soon as I got in the car. I feel like this car stole the price point that the Tonale should've occupied. The only reason Alfa went all EV with the Tonale was to justify the higher price. They'll sell more units combined because of the Dodge branding. But it shouldn't be a Hornet. It's a Fugazi.
