Honda CR-V S Plus special edition announced

Value-for-money devotees who are thinking of buying a compact SUV should be very interested in the new CR-V S Plus.

It's based on the existing S Navi trim grade, so the standard specification already includes 17” alloy wheels, dual-zone climate control, cruise control and the City Brake Active safety device. As the Navi suffix suggests, a Honda Connect infotainment system with Garmin navigation, a DAB radio and Bluetooth connectivity is fitted too.

For the S Plus, Honda has added a few extra items to that list. They comprise body-coloured front and rear aero bumpers, a tailgate spoiler, side running boards and a reversing camera. Furthermore, there's a choice of Crystal Black Pearl, Polished Metal Metallic, Passion Red Pearl or White Orchid Pearl paintwork.

Customers can order either a 153 bhp (114 kW / 155 PS) 2.0 litre i-VTEC petrol engine or a 118 bhp (88 kW / 120 PS) 1.6 litre i-DTEC diesel unit. Both options come with a six-speed manual gearbox and two-wheel drive.

If the additional equipment isn't incentive enough, then keen pricing might be. Indeed, the S Plus variants are actually cheaper than their corresponding S Navi models.

Trim grade S Navi S Plus
Petrol £24,600 £23,500
Diesel £24,800 £24,500

Deliveries of the Honda CR-V S Plus are due to start at the beginning of November.

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
