2015 Hyundai i20 Coupe revealed

While the recently-launched five-door Hyundai i20 is a plain-looking thing, the same criticism can’t be levelled at the new Coupe version.

With its thick C-pillar and lower roofline, the three-door benefits from a much sleeker profile. Distinctive surfacing around the rear wheel arches, restyled bumpers and a prominent tailgate spoiler also add to the more purposeful appearance.

Initially four engines are going to be available. Following the current trend for smaller capacities and fewer cylinders, the line-up is due to be augmented by a 1.0 litre, three-cylinder, turbocharged petrol unit later next year.

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.
