The most obvious addition is a PCOR storage system. Replacing the standard cargo box, this bespoke unit features pull-out drawers, power supplies, a refrigerator and even an electric hot-dog roller. On top is a dual bike rack which is accessed via a folding ladder.

Off-road ability is enhanced by a JPP two-inch lift kit and Fox dampers, while 17” JPP beadlock rims shod with BFGoodrich Mud-Terrain KM3 tyres sit beneath extended wheel arches. Also fitted are a JPP Rubicon front bumper, a unique grille guard, specially-modified JPP tubular rock rails and two Warn winches.

Power comes from a regular 3.6 litre Pentastar V6 gasoline engine that’s mated to an eight-speed automatic transmission. However, to help cope with adverse conditions, a JPP snorkel is connected to the air intake.

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
