: CARS that are smaller and more efficient ■ : can also be more desirable. Alfa Romeo - hopes proof can come in the form o f their ■ MiTo, one o f the new breed of small yet de- - sirable sporty premium compact models. - • Aimed at the MINI but offering greater practi-' ■
, cality, value and high street wow factor, this Ital- ; ian alternative is attracting a loyal following. To - understand why, we’ve been taking a look at the
f, efficient Multijet II diesel variant. ■ It took a long time for the market to see a prod- > uct that properly competed with BMW’s MINI. -
. That car proved that European drivers were ^prepared to pay quite a premium for something
; three-door and compact, provided it was stylish, - sporty and had the right brand cachet. Step for- wardAlfaRomeo’sNfiTo.;
■ - Thirty years ago, enthusiasts on . real world
. budgets dreamed of an ltalian car packing all of Alfa’s heritage and spirit into a four-metre length - and realised it with the iconic Alfasud. Today, the MiTo should satisfy their kids in exactly the same way. ■
. . . ■ We should start by explaining the name, com
bining as it does the first two letters of Milan (where Alfa Romeo was conceived) and Turin
- or in Italian ‘Torino’ - (where the cars are cur- ■ rently made). It’s also the Italian for ‘myth’, or legend, a nod.
to the ambitious future the brand has in mind that will see this model leading an ambitious charge to double its volume to 300,000 cars a year.: Yes, this is a lot cheaper than the larger Alfa
Romeos we’re used to, but it’s also still pretty profitable given that the money to develop its underpinnings and engines was already spent a few years ago on this model’s close cousin. Fiat’s
Grande Punto. Fortunately for potential buyers, the two cars have a very different feel thanks to the MiTo-specific steering, seating, suspension
. and brakes.'Its engines are tuned differently too and of course, there are these unique looks. So far so good. So, to what an Alfa should be about -
ing experience. Even in this modestly-powered 95bhp_ diesel version, first impressions are good. You sit lower than you woulci in the Fiat Grande Punto that shares this car’s basic structural and
’ oily bits. . • ! • ■ But shouldn’t an Alfa have its own
unique engine? Sadly, in, the modern world, that idea makes no sense at this

■ 11.6s. ' To help get the most from the perform- <
powerplants that are available'to give them some high-rewing, sweet-sounding Alfa-like character. - Or at least they have in the Multiair petrol models. There’s only so much you can do with a diesel but this 1.3 JTDm-2 unit is certainly impressive, meeting the latest Euro 5 emissions legislation, yet offering a 0-62mph acceleration time of i
Erice point but the Milanese engineers ave done a good job in tweaking' the
ance on offer, Alfa have turned to some sophisticated electronics to further set their car apart. The first, I’m not totally sure about. ■
■The DST (or Dynamic Steering Torque) system is supposed to give a counter steering effect to combat oversteer and help maintain an even course through quick comers.
’ No doubt it does but the electric whole
set-up feels a little over-assisted and somewhat vaguer than I’d expect from a car of this kind. Much better thought out is the use
across the range o f Alfa’s clever Q2 dif ferential, which diverts engine torque to the wheel that has the grip to use it, so uselessly spinning wheels aren’t a part o f ; hard cornering. The MiTo’s piece de resistance how-r
ever, is the DNA set-up that’s laudably standard on all models for quick driver control of throttle and transmission re-
. The initials stand fo r ‘Dynamic’,-‘Nor mal’ and ‘All-weather’ and these three settings are accessible via this three-po sition rocker switch that’s rather tuefcd : away behind the gear lever. - ■ ■
