Nissan 370Z 50th Anniversary Edition revealed

To commemorate half a century of ‘Z’ sports cars, Nissan has created a special version of the current 370Z. The 50th Anniversary Edition – which has been unveiled ahead of its public début at the New York International Auto Show – gains numerous cosmetic embellishments.

First and foremost, an eye-catching white and red colour scheme recalls the Brock Racing Enterprises Datsun 240Z that competed in Sports Car Club of America championships during the 1970s. Alternatively, a silver and black finish is being offered for anybody who prefers a slightly less conspicuous look.

Also included in the specification are 19” alloy wheels with red rim stripes, power-adjustable heated seats, leather and suede upholstery with unique stitching, an Alcantara-covered steering wheel and several 50th Anniversary badges and decals. The rear spoiler is deleted, though.

Nissan has based the 50th Anniversary Edition on the 2020 370Z Sport. Power comes from an unmodified 3.7 litre V6 engine that can be mated to either a six-speed manual gearbox or a seven-speed automatic transmission.

Availability outside of North America has yet to be confirmed.

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
