Alfa Mi.To. GTA

Autocar

An Alfa Romeo Mito GTA hot hatch will be launched at the Geneva motor show this March, Alfa Romeo has announced.
The Alfa Romeo Mito GTA will get a 240bhp 1.8-litre turbocharged petrol engine and will keep the electronic Q2 technology, which mimics a mechanical limited-slip differential and is already standard on the whole Mito range.
The new Alfa Mito GTA is based on the same underpinnings as the Fiat Punto Abarth, and Alfa maintains that the GTA will set a new performance benchmark for the brand.
Weight saving is key to this hardcore hatch. A senior Alfa Romeo source told Autocar: “The Mito GTA will get more lightweight materials such as carbon fibre and aluminium, in keeping with our strategy to cut weight from all our vehicles in the future.”
Expect the styling to take on a much more aggressive look, with blistered wheel arches, more defined lines and, possibly, new contrasting colour schemes to make the Mito look more like a racing car.
As the spiritual successor to the Alfa 147 GTA, the hot Mito will take on the Mini John Cooper Works when it goes on sale in the summer.
The Alfa Mito GTA will have 31bhp more than the hottest Mini and prices will also undercut the Mini JCW by as much as £2000.

Соотвествовать ожиданиям твоих покупателей - главный принцип успеха. Наконец чуваки с AR поняли это Возрождаемся!

вот, пожалуй, да, арки бы им доработать и тогда бы вообще отлично было. В тёмном цвете смотрится клёво.

The GTA badge will be back at Geneva. Alfa Romeo will unveil the hottest Mito, and it won’t just be a spiced-up concept. It will be the production Mito GTA, complete with a 1.8-litre direct injection turbo engine.

That means 240bhp, a chunky 32bhp hike over its most direct rival, the Mini John Cooper Works. It means the Mito will be able to hit 150mph, while clearing 0-60 in 6.2sec approx. Both figures are a sliver better than the JCW.

Whether the Alfa offers the great, old-school fun of the Mini behind the wheel remains to be seen. It uses the same tech as the regular Mito hatchback, meaning the DNA dynamics trickery is standard while the electronic Q2 differential system should have a good go of channelling all those horses through the front wheels, a problem that afflicted the 247bhp 147 GTA. Expect it do undercut the Mini JCW, priced at £19-20k.

Speaking of the 147, the next model – due by next year – will be five-door only, with the Mito perhaps seen as the new compact three-door Alfa of choice. A design chief at Alfa Romeo has also said that the brand’s design direction is set to become more focused, and move away from the aggression of the 159 and Brera and become more sinuous, although future models won’t be in the same vein as the 8C supercar and the Mito it’s inspired.

Four new cars have been signed off apparently, and after the Mito GTA is seen at Geneva expect a drip-feed of new models and concepts from the Italians. In the meantime, you can read evo's drives of the UK-spec Alfa Romeo Mito and the striking Marangoni gullwing-doored concept in evo 128, on sale Weds February 4.

[Komiss]

И скока интересно у нас она будет стоить?

[Kemal]

И скока интересно у нас она будет стоить?

для начала не факт, что ее сюда будут продавать

[Вит]

и еще не факт, что MiTo GTA будет большая серия.... если выпустят их 2-3 тысячи мсашин, то, сдается мне, до нас докатятся максимум десять..и не понятно когда...и может б/у даже ...

[Typhoon]

И скока интересно у нас она будет стоить?

Думаю, ±1200000 руб в базе

[ToSHiC]

на неё нужна будет отдельная сертификация? если нет - то шансы, что привезут, есть, хотя бы и под заказ. но если сертификат этот нужен...
