Alfa Romeo Mi.To official images leaked
March 14, 2008 by George Skentzos
Official images of Alfa Romeo’s answer to the Mini Cooper have found their way onto the web.
Widely known as the ‘Junior’, these images reveal the new car will carry the ‘Mi.To’ nameplate.
Using the same platform as the Fiat Grande Punto, it will be available with a variety of engines from an entry-level 1.4-litre unit to a 171kW turbo adaptation for the GTA.
The Alfa Romeo Mi.To is tipped to feature a 6-speed manual transmission as standard with an optional automatic.

*****PRIMO!*****
“Alfa Romeo trueck, 35 tons anywhere” :-)
As per nonno…
Cheers

i think i just saw my next car….
That is stunning.
I just hope it is built well and won’t rust in 3 days.
“On a quiet day, if you listen carefully, you can hear the Alfa’s rusting.”
Is that like “Me too”?
To the side it looks like a Hyundai accent and the headlights look similar to the accents.
^hatch
Marc, great idea ;)
But this car is not TOO, it should say “I, big I” :)
name = unsure should be called junior other than that i am buying one from those pics alone it looks like an alfa 8C but smaller
does anyone else see a lot of 8c competizione in the design…becuase i do…and i luv it
2 words: LOVE IT.
Leave it to Alfa to style a stunning car.
When Alfas rusted in the mid eighties and before everything else did as well if u remember.get over it.
This world would be grey without Italians.
Actually cant wait t see the interior.
Great styling but will be affordable in Australia or will the 207 Peugeot GTI be a far better package?
This is gonna be great with their 150Kw diesel. Wooosh!
Not sure about the googlie headlights though.
it will be priced directly against the mini cooper and it’s a pretty bloody good alternative to the mini! My wife has wanted a mini ever since the new version was launched but i just showed her this and now she is leaning towards the alfa!
There are 2 types of people in this world, Italians, and those that want to be Italians!!!! This car looks great!
hope it will have the same engine note like all other alfa’s…mmm… (current 156 owner)
Mito sounds like meto as in mini and fiat are doing it we want some aswell which is true
Fantasics looks, 171kW and AWD (GTA is isn’t it?) in a small car. Sounds great to me!
The most beautiful hatch on the market! I love the 8C design cues!
They should stick with the Brera headlights across the range. This looks a bit Picachu to me.
Beautiful car and a real good name.
Alfa Romeo mito
Pronounced Alfa romeo me too.
It must be the way italians pronounce me to.
It makes you wish one.
Even though the name means legend in Italian.
And stands for mi(lano) and To(rino).
I agree with the one who wrote ” I just seen my next car”
I am currently owing a 156 1.9jtd sw and did not thought of change my car :)))
I am a current owner of a 147 and can’t wait to drive this car.
One word to describe it WICKED
What a great car
Looks Great, This will standout in the crowd for sure.
Nice front and side but the back of that car is seriously ugly. Lets hope these are just development prototypes which are refined for production!
Looks crap… will be the most unreliable vehicle on the road… no deal.
Fantastic looking car. Will Alfa fit all the luxury of alfa interiors into it though? I hope so. Definately worth a look.
Wow TP your logical reasoning is undeniable. Got anything to back up that assumption?
As for the MiTo, it looks great- let’s hope they put out a decent GTA version- I’ll be buying one.
Yep he would babs………….its not a Toyota! Geez hes unbelievable.
Mi.To is short for Milano and Torino, Milan being the birth place of Alfa, Turin the city of production.
Saw a video of the interior on http://www.wheels24.com. Stunning. Friends 147 and 156 has not rusted at all. Thats an old fashioned statement. In South Africa it will probably come with a 100000km maintenance plan. So won’t worry about reliability. I’m definately buying one if it is affordable. I’ll pay up to R230k
