Alfa Romeo MiTo MultiAir – UK Prices
Wed, 06 Jan 2010Alfa Romeo release UK prices for the MiTo MultiAir
Alfa Romeo has been threatening the MultiAir engines for the MiTo for ages (last June!) and have even launched models featuring the new engines. But it’s taken them until now to get round to giving us prices for the new MiTo range.
Just to refresh your memory, the MultiAir engines for the MiTo work by improving combustion and engine management resulting in improved performance and torque and improved economy with lower emissions. All of which is extremely hard to argue against.
The MiTo gets two versions of the MultiAir – 135bhp and 170bhp. The standard 1.4 litre MultiAir gets fitted to the MiTo Lusso and MiTo Veloce where it churns out 135bhp, but in the MiTo Cloverleaf this gets boosted to 170bhp.
For some strange reason Alfa have chosen not to release performance or economy data with this price information. Digging back through previous articles we’ve done on the MiTo MultiAir it looks like the 170bhp in the MiTo Cloverleaf will return 49mpg and emit 139g/km CO2. It will also do 0-60mph in 7 seconds. We can’t actually find any performance figures for the 135bhp MultiAir in the MiTo. A strange omission by Alfa. But we’ll dig them up and add them here as soon as we can.
Alfa are already taking order for the MiTo MultiAir, and first customer cars will arrive in the Spring.
