Dacia confirms Logan MCV Stepway prices

While badge snobs probably won’t like the Logan MCV Stepway, anybody else wanting a brand-new budget ‘lifestyle’ estate car might be very interested.

The slightly rugged Stepway specification boasts protective plastic cladding along the sills, around the wheel arches and on the bumpers. An increased ground clearance of 174 mm (6.8”) should be useful over rough terrain, but all-wheel drive isn’t being offered.

Placing an order at a Dacia dealer is going to be a fairly straightforward process, because Lauréate is the only available trim grade.

That’s a good thing, because cruise control, four electric windows, air conditioning, rear parking sensors and 16” steel wheels (with faux alloy covers) all appear on the equipment list. What’s more, a standard-fit MediaNav infotainment system features Bluetooth, a DAB radio and satellite navigation.

Customers will have to choose between a TCe 90 petrol or a dCi 90 diesel engine, though. Given the substantial price difference, the former is likely to be the one to go for unless huge mileages are envisaged.

Alfa MiTo TwinAir arrives

Image
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. 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
