We updated our Alfa Romeo dashboard symbols page. In the process we added nearly a dozen new symbols.

This was due to the addition of a hybrid system in the 2024 Tonale. Most of the symbols we already featured from other manufacturers, but as is too often the case, the company added a new E-Boost system that required three brand new lights.

This system helps in stop-and-go (see this link) situations and translates to improvements for the official city fuel economy. Seen in white, the E-Boost system is unavailable. Seen in gray it is available and in green, it is engaged.

The indicators are seen as a lightning bolt in a cloud-like circle. As noted, the colors alert the driver to the status of the E-Boost system.

The Alfa Romeo symbols page is here and the E-Boost system got its own page here.

Cars are changing, and among those changes is the growing number of symbols and indicators that will invariably show up on your dashboard or instrument panel. Every year, new features are added to vehicles, each of which is accompanied by a new symbol or symbols and likely a new acronym.

At DashboardSymbols.com, our aim is to help you understand what is happening to your vehicle at the first sign of trouble – a new warning light illuminated on your instrument panel. Its all here on this website. Our first intention is to bring the latest technologies down to earth and understandable for everyday drivers.
