Details of the Alfa Romeo has released details of its Mito Turismo Sport special edition, costing from £199 per month to buy, with a £1,000 deposit.

The Turismo Sport is fitted with £1,610 of additional options and costs from £12,895.

Available only in black, white or red, the special edition Mito is fitted with either a 1.4-litre petrol engine with 95bhp, or Alfa’s economical and equally powerful 1.3-litre diesel engine.

The diesel is more expensive, costing £14,410 outright, or £219 a month with a £1,000 deposit. However, its low CO2 emissions of 112g/km make it cheap to tax, and economy of 65.7mpg will save money at the pumps.

In addition to standard equipment including air-con and Alfa’s DNA adaptive suspension, the Alfa Romeo Mito Turismo Sport is fitted with 16-inch alloy wheels, rear spoiler, cruise control, Bluetooth connectivity, front fog lights and a leather steering wheel with audio controls.
