Triumph classics range updated for 2014

Triumph has announced a series of cosmetic changes for its Bonneville, Scrambler and Thruxton models.

For 2014, the Bonneville gets new silencers which have been designed to improve the exhaust note. Also fitted are a restyled seat, a black pillion grab rail, revised engine cooling fins and new tank badges.

UK prices start from £6,549, with buyers able to choose from Phantom Black, Lunar Silver or Sapphire Blue / Crystal White colour schemes.

The more retro T100 version of the Bonneville adopts many of the standard bike’s updates, along with a new Crystal White / Aurum Gold two-tone paintjob. It will be offered alongside the existing Jet Black / Cranberry Red option, and prices are from £7,349 on the road.

Completing the Bonneville family is the T100 Black. As the name suggests, it’s distinguished by a black finish for many of the components including the wheel hubs and rims, handlebars, engine casings and mirrors. Naturally, the only colour available is Jet Black and the T100 Black costs £7,149.

The price is £7,349.

Alfa MiTo TwinAir arrives

The Alfa Romeo MiTo supermini is now available with the innovative two-cylinder TwinAir petrol engine. Although its capacity is only 875 cc, a turbocharger and the MultiAir electro-hydraulic valve control system mean it produces a respectable 83 bhp (62 kW / 85 PS) and 145 Nm (103 lb/ft) of torque. Performance might not be scintillating - the 0-62 mph (100 km/h) sprint takes 12.5 seconds and maximum speed is 108 mph (173 km/h) - but the TwinAir’s trump card is efficiency. Carbon dioxide emissions are only 98 g/km, a level that brings numerous benefits for UK drivers including zero road tax, a full discount on the London Congestion Charge and qualification for the lowest company car benefit-in-kind rate. Fuel economy is also decent and, according to the official figures, a TwinAir-powered MiTo will manage 67.3 mpg (4.2 l/100km) on the combined cycle.
