Fiat has updated its 500X crossover for 2019

Jeep unveiled a revised Renegade a few months ago, so similar changes to the closely-related Fiat 500X were expected.

The upgrades focus on a new engine line-up. Significantly, it does not feature a diesel option:
  • 109 bhp (81 kW / 110 PS), 1.6 litre, four-cylinder, petrol
  • 118 bhp (88 kW / 120 PS), 1.0 litre, three-cylinder, turbocharged, petrol
  • 147 bhp (110 kW / 150 PS), 1.3 litre, four-cylinder, turbocharged, petrol
While the 500X hasn’t really received a proper styling facelift, the lights and bumpers are different. Furthermore, the interior gains a nicer multi-function steering wheel, clearer instruments and a 3.5” TFT display.

Equipment fitted to the entry-level Urban trim grade includes 16” alloy wheels, manual air conditioning and a Uconnect infotainment system that’s operated via a 7” touchscreen. Cruise control, Traffic Sign Recognition, Intelligent Speed Assist and Lane Assist all come as standard, too.

Moving up, the City Cross adds protective skid plates, front fog lights, 17” wheels, rear parking sensors and dual-zone climate control.

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
