Recent Changes
- For 2010, the Mi.To range grows one variant bigger with the sportier Quadrifoglio Verde (Four Leaf Clover). Distinguishing this model from regular Mi.Tos is Alfa's new 170 hp 1.4-liter MultiAir turbo engine. That power is sent to the front wheels via Alfa's new "C635" six-speed gearbox. 0 to 100km/h (62mph) is claimed at a little over 7 seconds by Alfa with an extra-urban cycle (highway) fuel consumption of just 4.8 lt/100 km (49mpg US) and CO2 emissions of 139 g/km. Handling has also been upgraded with a suspension system co-developed with Magnetti Marelli which comprises of four electronically controlled shock absorbers, five accelerometric sensors, a control unit and an interface for the three different settings (Normal, All Weather and Dynamic). Visually, apart from the iconic four leaf clover badge on the front fender, the car is marked out by 17-inch alloy wheels finished in satin titanium that is also used for the headlight and tail lamp frames as well as for the wing mirrors.[1]
- On Feb 19, 2009, Alfa Romeo released teaser images of the upcoming Mi.To GTA hot hatch. [2]
- In 2009, to celebrate the 46th anniversary of the Registro Italiano Alfa Romeo, an international Alfa owners club with over 1,000 members, Alfa Romeo has produced a 46 unit limited edition model called the MiTo R.I.A.R. Edition. The car is unique for having a Nero Cattivo or Nero Etna livery with black satin finish details and 17-inch anthracite-finish 8C-style alloys with red brake calipers. The changes aren't just skin deep, either because the turbocharged four-pot has been tweaked to churn out 170 hp, 25 more than the standard Mi.To. Only RIAR members are eligible to purchase with prices set at € 20,000. [3]
