The Venture Edition gains climate control (upgraded from manual air conditioning), rear electric windows, satellite navigation and rear parking sensors. There are extra driver aids too, namely Lane Keep Assist, Lane Departure Warning, Active Emergency Braking and Automatic High Low Beam.

As per the Zoe Play, power is provided by a 108 bhp (80 kW / 110 PS) R110 electric motor, while 52 kWh of energy is stored in a Z.E. 50 battery pack.

Renault dealers will begin accepting Zoe Venture Edition orders next month. The on-the-road starting price – after deducting the government’s Plug-in Car Grant – is £28,495.

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

Ford Police Interceptor

Image
Ford has unveiled the vehicle it hopes will take over law enforcement duties from the venerable Crown Victoria, when production of that model ceases in 2011. The Police Interceptor is a very different animal from the Crown Vic though. Instead of V8 power and body-on-frame construction, users of the Taurus-based Interceptor will get a choice of two 3.5 litre V6 engines: either 263 horsepower with front wheel drive, or 365 horsepower with all-wheel drive. The latter comes with Ford’s EcoBoost twin-turbocharger technology, which manages to increase power while equalling the fuel economy of the normally aspirated version. Despite the changes, Ford is claiming the Police Interceptor will outperform its predecessor in the areas of durability, safety and performance. “Police nationwide asked for a new kind of weapon in the battle for public safety, and Ford is answering the call with a purpose-built vehicle – engineered and built in America – that’s as dynamic as it is durable,” said
