Alfa Romeo MiTo
Pay what it costs the Alfa Romeo MiTo can compensate if given value to a quality of implementation slightly above average (although it is somewhat understandable rulings to its price), or the fact possess a vehicle with a unique design that will have relatively little circulation.
Alfa Romeo MiTo
The Alfa Romeo MiTo has qualities very well resolved as its driving position, its broad scope of equipment and their level of active safety, which is high. If it is not safe is because some have lost a lot of brake efficiency when used repeatedly in intense form.
Alfa Romeo MiTo
The Alfa Romeo MiTo transmits a special feeling at the wheel, like that of those who like to drive. It also has characteristics that are accustomed to, as its record is inaccurate in a straight line (need to make small corrections with the steering wheel almost constantly) and a stability which is deteriorating substantially, and more than usual, on asphalt in poor state.
Alfa Romeo MiTo
In relation to a Fiat Grande Punto, which shares many elements of the suspension but with some changes and other cars of this size, the main drawback is that the Alfa Romeo MiTo is a little rear seat space.
Alfa Romeo MiTo
Series has four seats, two front and two behind. If you want to have five seats, there is an option for rear seat occupants and their corresponding three headrests (250 €). Behind, there is insufficient width for three passengers.
Alfa Romeo MiTo
The Alfa Romeo MiTo measured 4.06 m, which is similar to a Fiat Grande Punto or a Peugeot 207 and 40 cm higher than a MINI. Its height is 1.44 m, slightly lower than the Grande Punto and 207 and 3 cm longer than the MINI. Width measured 1.72 m.
Alfa Romeo MiTo
All versions carry serial stability control (VDA) and a device called 'Alfa DNA' which allows the response of the engine, ABS, stability control, the hardness of direction and speed of automatic gearshift (when available).
Alfa Romeo MiTo
The driver can change these parameters from a control on the dashboard, in three different modes 'Dynamic', 'Normal' and 'Allweather' (designed to travel on roads with poor adherence). Since the arrival of GTA Alfa Romeo MiTo (second half 2009), the device 'Alfa DNA' also affect the hardness of the pads. Also standard is the Electronic Q2, which acts as self.
Alfa Romeo MiTo
The pilots have LEDs instead of conventional bulbs. The functions of fog light and reversing at the bottom of the body, separated from the main pilot.
Alfa Romeo MiTo
The range of the Alfa Romeo MiTo will be expanded along with the 2009 version of GTA (the GTA Alfa Romeo MiTo Concept is presented in Geneva Motor Show 2009) and the premiere of a double-clutch automatic.
Alfa Romeo MiTo
The Alfa Romeo MiTo GTA will carry a 1.8 liters turbocharged engine with 240 hp of maximum power. Will have a variable distribution system ("multi") that will dispense with the butterfly on admission, as in the engine with the BMW Valvetronic (which is no longer used).
Alfa Romeo MiTo
Another novelty is the automatic gearbox double clutch (similar to "DSG" of Volkswagen Group). This change, which Alfa Romeo calls "DDCT (Dual Dry Clutch Transmission), is like having two gearboxes, each with its clutch. This will allows you to select and attach the following motion while the previous is still attached.
Alfa Romeo MiTo
The Alfa Romeo MiTo chose the name so that when mention is to remember the cities of Milan and Turin (Torino in Italian). Milan, because it is linked to the origin of the Alfa Romeo brand is as well as the city's Italian design and fashion. Torino is the city where it is manufactured. This association encourages the central T of the name is put in uppercase.
Alfa Romeo MiTo
The Alfa Romeo MiTo is a small rear seats and front seats which are about the quality of their seats and the driving position. The pedals are well positioned. There are some drivers who would have thought that was slightly high in its lowest position, if the seat is at the lower level; to its rim diameter seems excessive for a sports car of dyes.
Alfa Romeo MiTo
The driving position of the Alfa Romeo MiTo fails because the visibility is poor and backward in the rear three quarters, the rear window is small and the side pillars are very thick.
Alfa Romeo MiTo
Back little wide, but enough for two occupants. For legroom and height is comfortable for people up to 1.75 m. People are somewhat higher because the damaged roof lined in their associations with the sides of the body, stand a lot. Although small, these rear seats are not so inadequate to carry passengers as a SEAT Ibiza.
Alfa Romeo MiTo
The Alfa Romeo MiTo in the fifth place is an option which costs € 250, € 50 of the back seat of three seats, plus 100 € asymmetrically folding rear seat and the other € 100 central headrest. When you depress the front seats is that the hole to move back is broad. The two front seats return to the starting position after moving forward, to facilitate access to rear seats.
Alfa Romeo MiTo
The interior of the Alfa Romeo MiTo looks good, better than other cars of its size. However, in this sense, you can not find a difference that alone justifies the purchase of the Alfa Romeo MiTo. For example, a Fiat Grande Punto has many coatings and controls identical to those of the Alfa Romeo MiTo, others not, for example, the surface of the doors and dashboard material has a much more pleasant in the Alfa Romeo.
Alfa Romeo MiTo
It has details of a car unfit for its price: the mirrors of courtesy are of poor quality and the passenger is not covered with a lid. Both are light, but there is no mechanism provided to disconnect when you stop using the mirror. The upholstery of the roof is badly in parts subject (rises or sinks with ease).
Alfa Romeo MiTo
With emergency spare wheel, the one that comes, the boot is very deep, with the disadvantage that the packages have to overcome a threshold load high. I.e. there is much to lift objects or to put it out of the trunk.
Alfa Romeo MiTo
The Alfa Romeo MiTo is easy to drive and is very stable if the road is in good condition. The location provides a nice touch especially for those who enjoy driving.
Alfa Romeo MiTo
The conduct of the Alfa Romeo MiTo may require a period of adaptation because it has little capacity to maintain a straight path, even when the asphalt is in good condition, you need to make small corrections were almost constant.
Alfa Romeo MiTo
Road curves, the Alfa Romeo MiTo are an important sense of control because the Alfa Romeo MiTo responds almost immediately to the orders of management, which is fast. That ability to enter into the curves, the rear axle gets a little sensitive to sudden movements of the body and is a safe and easy car to drive.
Alfa Romeo MiTo
While a car is stable and secure, these qualities do not seem sufficient to elect him over others who are also like the Seat Ibiza and Ford Fiesta. It seems preferable, for those seeking a vehicle with a good feel of driving a Fiat Grande Punto.
Alfa Romeo MiTo
The brakes of the legend endure intense little use (they get hot and lose a lot of braking). Stop the Alfa Romeo MiTo very well in the early stops, but when used repeatedly. It is understandable that a little hill brake manufacturer in a bad car, but more so in this case, which sells the Alfa Romeo MiTo as sport (at least that word appears many times in its press pack).
Alfa Romeo MiTo
Curiously, although the suspension is not very flexible, the body has big movements of pitching (in heavy braking or when there are sudden changes in grade) and rolling (in slow curves).
Alfa Romeo MiTo
On bad roads, the Alfa Romeo MiTo loses much precision and steering feel becomes worse. It is not as alarming as in other Alfa Romeo, for example 147 or 156, which is not sold, which had a strong knock on the steering wheel on asphalt stark.
Alfa Romeo MiTo
The 'DNA' can choose between three positions: driving dynamics, normal or winter. It operated from a control placed on the console.
Alfa Romeo MiTo
The biggest difference between the 'Dynamic' and 'normal' is in the steering and speed of response to the accelerator, there is also a difference in the speed with which it is gained speed gear. This is because there is an excess of pro turbocharger (overboost, which increases the maximum torque), as it does not increase engine power, the peak acceleration (which is accomplished racing gears) does not change.
Alfa Romeo MiTo
In normal mode the address is a touch too soft curve. It is suitable for city road but to "Dynamic", does not affect the comfort and improves the sense of direction.
Alfa Romeo MiTo
Mode power Allweather "is designed for use on very slippery surfaces, like snow. The biggest difference compared to normal is that traction control intervenes much less. Adjustment is indicated for when lines are mounted or when driving on snowy roads, as this would avoid the possibility of accumulating snow in front of the wheel (which can limit advancement).
Alfa Romeo MiTo
The Alfa Romeo MiTo of the 120 hp diesel engine gives a normal result, not least of which is spent is not giving the benefits faster. To make half of 123 km / h on a motorway journey roundtrip required 6.2 l/100 km, which is not a particularly low consumption.
Alfa Romeo MiTo
The gasoline gets to open the lock that carries the independent stopper. There are much more convenient systems in which the lid of the tank is locked and unlocked with the central locking.
Alfa Romeo MiTo
The sound of the Alfa Romeo MiTo worked okay. There is little road noise and aerodynamic. The engine can be heard recently that it sounds so nice, at least the Alfa Romeo MiTo with the 120 hp diesel engine is quieter than a Fiat Grande Punto with the same engine, the biggest gap is on the road, where Alfa Romeo has much less aerodynamic noise.
