Complete with a new look, more technology and a completely revised range of trim levels, the 2016 version of the Alfa Romeo Mito is now available to order from Nationwide Vehicle Contracts.
The new look emulates the style and attitude of the all-new Alfa Romeo Giulia that we reported on in the blog back in June, eaning that the new Alfa Romeo Mito is more enticing and competitive than ever before.
Naturally, the new car looks good - after all, it is an Alfa Romeo. New sports grilles, dark-finish headlamp bezels, revised rear bumper designs and new alloy wheels give the car a sporty look, which can be further enhanced with te addition of the new Alfa White paint option; while, inside, you can find upgraded seat upholsteries, Uconnect Live services and a new finish on the centre console, dashboard and door trims.
And there is no mistaking the make and model with the new Alfa Romeo logo prominent both inside and out, with the Mito badge mirroring that of the new Giulia.
