Mopar launches a Fiat 500X accessory range

Manufacturers know that personalisation options can help to shift a few extra units, especially if the model in question is seen as quirky or trendy.

Doubtless Fiat will be hoping such a strategy is going to work for its 500X, because Mopar has just introduced an accessory range for the small crossover.

The selection comprises over 100 items. All can be bought separately, or alternatively eight better-value Xtra Packs have been created.

For example the beige, bronze, red and white Colour Xtra Packs comprise matching door mirror caps, body stripes and door moulding inserts. They cost £305, which is a £100 saving compared to ordering the parts individually. Black and Chrome Xtra Packs are available too.

Roof bars and a moulded cargo area tray are the key features of the Summer and Winter Xtra Packs. The former adds a bike carrier, while the latter comes with adaptors to accommodate snowboards or skis.

Among the other components being offered are 18” wheels in various designs (from £816 per set of four), a 360-litre roof box (£259), a detachable tow bar (£360) and a tow bar-mounted two-bike carrier (£613).

Alfa MiTo TwinAir arrives

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. Impressive maybe, but still some way off the 78.5 mpg (3.6 l/100km) of the existing 1.3 JTDM-2 diesel MiTo. However, any
