Alfa Romeo is to launch a new Veloce version of the MiTo.
The new car will be launched at the AutoRAI show in Amsterdam next month. The new model comes with a 180bhp version of the 1.4 16V T-Jet engine and is expected to match the power and speed the of Grande Punto Abarth, which currently reaches a top speed of 215km/h and 0 to 100 km/h in 7.7 seconds.
Along with the boost to its power, the MiTo Veloce will feature unique body styling upgrades, uprated brakes, lowered and stiffened suspension, a special interior and new alloy wheels. It is also reported that this special version will go on sale almost immediately after AutoRAI.
The MiTo Veloce will bridge the gap between the mainstream Mito superminis and the 240bhp highly-hot Mito GTA.

There are many practical reasons to leasing a car rather than buying one. Car leasing offers lower monthly payments, lower initial deposit, road tax and breakdown recovery. You also have the opportunity to drive a new car every two or three years and all vehicles include the standard manufacturer’s warranty.
Our leasing deals are powered by Nationwide Vehicle Contracts.
