2012 Alfa Romeo Mito Review - Alfha Romeo Mito 2012 is known for sports cars like Dustin Hoffman’s iconic ride in “The Graduate,” but it has long offered passenger models with the same Italian brio so beloved by enthusiasts. The latest is the MiTo, a small front-wheel-drive two-door hatchback unveiled in mid-2008 ahead of a European sales launch in early ‘09. The name (say “Mee-TOE”) refers to Milan, where the car was designed (and also home to Alfa-parent Fiat Group), and Torino (Turin), where the car is built. The 2011 Alfa Romeo MiTo will compete with the Mini Cooper in the Sporty/Performance Car class.
2012 Alfha Romeo Mito has a long and illustrious racing history, but increasing environmental pressures are pushing the company to offer a TwinAir MiTo. While performance enthusiasts won't be thrilled, the 875cc two-cylinder engine produces 65 (48 kW / 65 hp) to 105 PS (78 kW / 104 hp). More importantly, thanks to stop/start technology, the car is expected to carry a fuel economy rating of 4.5 l/100km (52 mpg US).
A launch is scheduled for the 2012 model year and will reportedly coincide with a slight facelift.
