Fiat updates the Panda Waze for 2019

Various cosmetic changes and some additional powertrain choices benefit the latest Panda Waze special edition, which is still based on the existing Cross trim grade.

Customers can now combine a black roof panel with Giotto Blue, Colosseo Grey, Moda Grey, Amore Red, Gelato White or Sole Yellow paintwork to create a two-colour look. It’s complemented by new two-tone 15” wheels, Waze badges and a gloss black finish for numerous components including the skid plates, mirror caps and door handles.

For the first time, Fiat has decided to install the two-cylinder TwinAir engine in the Panda Waze. The 2019 model is therefore available with these three options:
  • 68 bhp (51 kW / 69 PS) 1.2 litre, four-cylinder, petrol / five-speed manual transmission / front-wheel drive
  • 83 bhp (63 kW / 85 PS) 0.9 litre, two-cylinder, petrol / five-speed manual transmission / front-wheel drive
  • 83 bhp (63 kW / 85 PS) 0.9 litre, two-cylinder, petrol / six-speed manual transmission / all-wheel drive
Of course, the whole point of this variant is to highlight Panda Uconnect, an app for Android and iOS that incorporates the well-known Waze navigation app. Using a dashboard cradle, it allows a suitable Bluetooth-connected smartphone to become a key part of the car’s infotainment system.

UK prices for the 2019 Panda Waze have yet to be confirmed.

Alfa MiTo TwinAir arrives

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
