The top ten car brands as rated by BrandZ 2019

WPP and Kantar Millward Brown have completed their annual BrandZ Top 100 Most Valuable Global Brands study. Amazon heads the overall list for 2019, rising from last year’s third spot thanks to an estimated worth of US$315,505 million. Apple remains in the runner-up position, just ahead of Google.

The car brand segment experienced a 7% drop in total value. Such a decrease apparently reflects changing trends in the industry, especially regarding electrification, the ownership versus usage debate, the arrival of new marques and an increasing reliance on demand from non-western markets such as China.

That said, in terms of order the latest top ten league is virtually identical to 2018’s. Toyota, Mercedes-Benz and BMW still hold the first three places, for instance. The rest looks pretty much the same too, although Porsche has replaced Maruti Suzuki.

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
