Finally the Alfa Romeo Mi.To soap opera of the last few months is drawing to a close with the final episode, including precious photographs published by Autoweek, revealing the interior without its camouflage.

The compartment is enriched with carbon finishes and leather seats without diminishing the sporty sensation of the bodywork and driving dynamics. The central console in shiny material combines with the general dark environment that dominates. The only thing missing is the third open compartment so characteristic of all Alfas. Of note however are the seats which appear quite wrap-around, though any hopes of seeing a Ferrari-style steering wheel with manettino dials to change the Alfa DNA have been dashed, with the dials appearing next to the gear shift as per the prototypes.

Another video for the Alfa Romeo MiTo which continues to play on the gradual leaking of details on the part of users involved by the company, step by step. The video is in Italian but shows off the great driving of the small car.

This time Philippe Krief, tester who we already encountered in a video on the snow at Arjeplog in Lapland, Sweden, shows us the dynamic quality of the Italian car. The tester explains the novelties introduced in suspension to increase rigidity and reduce the body roll compared to the 147, then notes the lower shift chosen for the steering and finally checks off with the AlfaDNA function.

Given that official shots are ever decreasing, we have had to content ourselves with spy shots that show the MiTo, by now nearly completely uncovered, in the course of the latest tests before its debut on the market.

Visto che le foto ufficiali continuano a scarseggiare, ci dobbiamo accontentare delle foto spia che immortalano la MiTo, oramai quasi del tutto scoperta, nel corso degli ultimi collaudi prima del debutto sul mercato.

These shots from CarAdvice, who has been working very hard in playing on the expectation of Alfa fans, spied this prototype in unusual blue livery.

There’s not much else to say: the MiTo testers will become more hunted by the paparazzi than the stars of Hollywood…

The official blog of the Alfa Mi.To has arrived online, the baby version having finally been revealed last Friday. The most interesting part is definitely the “Meet Mi.To” which allows for some lucky users to discover, and then reveal to others the Mi.To, after having seen it in person at the Centro Stile Alfa.

Navigating through the site the first technical data of the Mi.To can be read: the measurements, as we had already indicated, are 406 x 144 x 172 cm, with a wheelbase of 251, while the trunk and fuel tank capacity are at 270 and 45 litres. A curiosity: it seems that the car can be adapted for both four or five occupants, according to customers’ needs.

For the engines the 1.4 turbo 155 hp has been confirmed, the same as the Abarth Grande Punto. The five cylinder “Euro 5 ready” handles an overboost function, where the Torque passes from 206 to 230 Nm. In the video, Sergio Cravero explains the reasons behind the choice of the name Mi.To.

The official announcement of the Alfa Mi.To is out. Mi.To is short for Milano-Torino: Milan is the historical Alfa Romeo base and the place where the Mi.To was designed, Turin is the city that will be responsbible for the Mi.To’s production.

The Mi.To’s style is inspired by the 8C Competizione, especially the glass surfaces, the front, the headlights and the frontlights.

The Mito has dimensions very similar to those of the Grande Punto, with which it shares the underlying platform: 4.06 metres long, 1.44 metres high and 1.72 metres wide.

Initially there will be four turbocharged engines, ranging from 90 hp to 155 hp. There are no details on the exact engines, but we can expect the 90 hp engine to be the same 1.3 JTD used in the Grande Punto and the 155 hp engine to be the same 1.4 T-Jet used in the Grande Punto Abarth. The other two engines will probably be the 120 hp 1.4 T-Jet and another diesel engine (either the 105 hp power step of the 1.3 JTD or the new 1.6 JTD).
