A new engine for the Alfa Romeo MiTo. One that comes to balance the scales with a very appealing design. An infusion of technology under the hood of MiTo
New Engine: Alfa Romeo MiTo 1.4 TB MultiAir new Engine: Alfa Romeo MiTo 1.4 TB MultiAir
A new for Alfa Romeo MiTo engine, one that boasts of being a small ball of technology. Until recently, the MiTo is able to opt in if they want a gasoline engine, 1.4-liter engine only comes in three versions of power - 95 hp, 120 hp and 155 hp. Nowadays you can choose all the same 1.4-liter engine.
Slightly funny at first, and where is the novelty in the engines? FIAT Group has taken this engine and reinvented. It is the first contact with this engine, I discovered how nice is the 170 hp version of the Alfa Romeo Giulietta. But as the 135 hp feel the MiTo? Let's take a look at this little engine and see what MultiAir.
The Italians proved in time that are not only talented in design, know how very well when it comes to technology. One relatively recent examples comes from 1997 when the world could discover first common rail on the Alfa Romeo 156. And here is where it is now. So far a large motor things happening too. Camshaft was driven by the crankshaft and operate mechanical valves.
This link may be a little more complicated when it comes to variable valve opening. But so far it has made a quick movement of the valve camshaft. Fiat Group engineers have introduced a hydraulic unit, controlled electronically between camshaft and valves. Axis command now only the exhaust valves and provides both pressure hydraulic system.
Therefore the order intake is now filtered electronic unit. We can not talk about openness variable intake valve but an independent command upon request. Benefits? Well, a reduction of over 10% reduction in CO2 emissions by over 10% reduction of particles by 40% and NOx by up to 60%. Pretty decent match engine to Euro 5 standards. Then tick a 10% increase in power and torque by 15%.
