Alfa Mito? That’S Basically a Punto Isn’T It? Understanding What’S Under of the Mito, and Why the Mito Is Still Unique Alfa MiTo? That’s basically a Punto Isn’t it? Understanding what’s under of the MiTo, and why the MiTo is still unique... I’ve heard it said several times that the MiTo is just a Fiat Punto. Not a big issue for me: I like the Fiat Punto. But it is said in a derogatory way, somehow trying to belittle the MiTo as something less unique, less special. So what is the truth? Is the MiTo just a Fiat Punto? In the year 2000, General Motors exchanged a 6% stake in GM for a 20% stake in Fiat as part of a new joint venture. At that time, GM was worth con- siderably more than Fiat (a re- versal of today). The deal also contained an obligation for GM to buy Fiat in its entirety during the future years of 2004 to 2009, though GM bought their way out of that obligation for $2 billion in 2005, an amount that almost certainly helped Platform” was developed to and manufacture once, then ena- only Turkish vehicle manufactur- Fiat make its first profit for enable Opel and Fiat (and later ble the assembly of vehicles based er of both passenger and com- years under the new leadership Chrysler) to adopt an entirely on the platform to happen cost- mercial vehicles.

So from 2005, the Small Platform was used in various vehicles including the Fiat Grande Punto and the Punto Evo, the Alfa MiTo, the Opel Corsa and Adam as well as nu- merous small commercial vehi- cles assembled by Tofaş such as the Fiat Qubo, Fiat Doblo, Opel Combo, Citroen Nemo and the Peugeot Bipper. Long-wheel base versions of the Small Platform were used for the Fiat 500L and Fiat Tipo, whilst the four-wheel drive versions were used for the Jeep Renegade, the Fiat 500X and the Jeep Compass.

Understanding what’s under of the MiTo, and why the MiTo is still unique... and some switchgear may be shared, the MiTo has a lot of individual elements designed and manufactured only for Alfa Romeo. But we do have the advantage that some of the more oily parts can be shared between a Grande Punto, a Fiat 500L and a Vauxhall Corsa. To say a MiTo is just a Punto is akin to saying a MiTo is just a Jeep Renegade or, God forbid, a Peugeot Bipper. Structurally and mechanically there are shared components, but the look and feel, the design and handling, the steering and the brakes and the driving experi- ence with the Alfa DNA are completely different. Pretty much everything you can see, touch, feel and experience with a MiTo is all Alfa Romeo. I’ve driven a Punto Evo, a Doblo, a 500X and a 500L, and I can tell the two-cylinder 0.9l TwinAir up (steering wheel components, you they are nothing like a Mi- to the 1.4l FIRE and FIRE Multi- some dash components and To.

  • ADESA Partners with Fiat Chrysler Automobiles to Pilot Next Evolution of Simulcast Sale
    PRESS RELEASE FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE ADESA Partners with Fiat Chrysler Automobiles to Pilot Next Evolution of Simulcast Sale Hosts Exclusive Livestreaming Sale from Four Locations as Part of FCA Inaugural CPOV Meeting CARMEL, Ind. – September 19, 2019 – ADESA, a business unit of global automotive remarketing and technology solutions provider KAR Auction Services Inc. (NYSE: KAR), partnered with Fiat Chrysler Automobiles (FCA) to pilot an ADESA Simulcast sale outside of the physical auction sale-day environment. As part of FCA’s inaugural national CPOV (certified preowned vehicle) dealer meeting, vehicles were launched into auction from four ADESA auction locations — ADESA Golden Gate, ADESA Indianapolis, ADESA Kansas City and ADESA Las Vegas. FCA CPO dealers attending the event were able to participate in fast, live bidding action. “We were extremely pleased to work with our strong partners at FCA to demonstrate the powerful potential of ADESA Simulcast to this sophisticated and tech savvy group of dealers,” said John Hammer, ADESA president. “ADESA Simulcast allows us to bring the auction right to our dealers — exposing sellers to a broader buyer base and helping buyers access the hard-to- find inventory they need. We were honored to pilot this with FCA and to add to the excitement and energy of their annual meeting.” Launched earlier this year, ADESA Simulcast is a cloud-based auction solution that allows dealers to participate virtually in multiple in-lane sales occurring in any location. As part of ADESA Simulcast, participating dealers can easily access detailed condition reports, photos, valuation tools and transportation options for purchased vehicles. The FCA sale was the first use of the technology to launch from multiple sites in a non-sale-day environment to a defined, exclusive group of dealers.
