Available following the launch of the 105 and 135 hp MultiAir engines, the world premiere of the Alfa Romeo MiTo Quadrifoglio Verde with 170 hp 1.4 MultiAir TBi takes place in Frankfurt. The exclusive trim brings back a legendary symbol that over the years has appeared on some of Alfa Romeo’s sportiest cars. Having always been synonymous with heritage, racing and victory, the “Quadrifoglio Verde” (four-leaf clover) now represents a new kind of sportiness that combines maximum driving pleasure with improved environmental qualities.
Bearing the Quadrifoglio Verde is this MiTo with the most powerful 170 hp MultiAir engine and innovative solutions that accentuate the existing qualities of the model: hold, agility, active safety and driveability are heightened by an engine with one of the highest specific power values in the world and a chassis with features hitherto unthinkable for a car in this class.
This engine’s best feature is its outstanding weight/power ratio, which has always been one of the key factors behind Alfa Romeo’s success on the road and the racetrack. The class-leading ratio of 6.7 kg/hp is almost 10 per cent better than the already excellent performance of the current 155 hp 1.4 TBi. At 124 hp/litre, this engine is also one of the world leaders in specific power. In fact, this is the highest value ever recorded for an Alfa car, affirming the excellent engineering heritage of the Alfa MiTo.
This is a particularly important value because it proves the effectiveness of downsizing, aimed at producing high-tech engines to get better performance allied with sharp reductions in fuel consumption and emissions. Indeed, it is this latter area which provides the most surprising evidence of the technical level achieved: 4.8 l/100 km and 139 g/km of CO2 (in the extra-urban cycle) are closer to what you would expect from an economy car than a compact sports car that goes from 0 to 100 km/h in just over 7 seconds.
On the back of these exceptional power qualities and the unbeatable performance/consumption ratio, Alfa Romeo decided to give a sporty and technological feel to this Quadrifoglio Verde version with high-quality finishes, attention to detail and a raft of features. One example is the 17" satin titanium-finished wheels (based on the Alfa Romeo 8C Competizione supercar). The same colour is used for the headlight frames and the wing mirrors, while the dark finish of the headlight parabolas is achieved by a brand new metal sublimation technology. The interior also has a refined sporty feel thanks to the all-black environment that ensures no reflections or distractions while driving. The technological aspect of this car is further enhanced by the sporty fabric used to upholster the seats, the modern dashboard and the white lighting on the instrument panel.
It should also be stressed that Alfa Romeo has developed an innovative chassis upgrade to further emphasise the dynamic qualities of the MiTo Quadrifoglio Verde.
Bearing Mito Alfa Romeo Quadrifoglio Verde is the most powerful car engine 170 hp MultiAir innovative solutions and maintaining the quality of the model are: endurance, agility, active safety and driveability are reinforced by a machine with one of the highest specific power values in the world and chassis with features that until now unthinkable for cars in this class.
This machine’s best feature is the extraordinary weight / power ratio, which has always been one of the key factors behind the success of Alfa Romeo on road and racetrack. Class-leading ratio of 6.7 kg / hp almost 10 percent better than the already good performance of the current 155 hp 1.4 TBI. At 124 hp / liter, this engine is also one of the world leaders in a particular power. In fact, this is the highest value ever recorded for the Alfa, affirmed heritage very good technique Alfa Romeo Mito.
This is a very important value because it proves the effectiveness of downsizing, which aimed to produce high-tech machines to get better performance allied to a sharp reduction in fuel consumption and emissions. Indeed, this latter area provides the most startling evidence of the technical level achieved: 4.8 l/100 km and 139 g / km of CO2 (in the extra-urban cycle) is closer to what you’d expect from the economy car than a compact sports car that moves from 0 to 100 km / h in just 7 seconds.
Force behind this extraordinary quality and unbeatable performance / consumption ratio, Alfa Romeo decided to give a sporty feel and technology into the Mito Alfa Romeo Quadrifoglio Verde high-quality finish, attention to detail and features a raft. One example is the 17 “titanium satin-finished wheels (based on the Alfa Romeo 8C Competizione supercar.) The same color is used for lamps and mirror frames, while the dark finish of the parabolic light is achieved by a new brand of metal sublimation technology. This section also has a sporty soft felt thanks to all the black neighborhood to make sure there are no reflections or distractions while driving. aspects of car technology is further enhanced by the sporty fabric used to upholster a chair, modern dashboard and white lighting on the instrument panel.
Also must be stressed that Alfa Romeo has developed an innovative chassis upgrades to further emphasize the dynamic quality of Mito Alfa Romeo Quadrifoglio Verde.
