Alfa Romeo MiTo 1.3 JTDM-2 from 95 hp system with Start / Stop

by Maurizio Manna


Alfa Romeo Mito also comes on the second-generation Multijet developed by FPT - Fiat Fiat Powertrain Technologies. The new 1.3 JTDM-2 delivers 95 hp and is equipped as standard with Start & Stop system. Alfa Mito 1.3 JTDm-2 is available in the fitting Progression and Distinctive with respective prices of 17,600 euros and 19200 euros. The layout Distinctive can 'be customized further with the Sport or Premium pack: in this case the price rises to 20,100 euros.

The new 1.3 JTDM diesel engine by 95 hp-2 belongs to the second generation JTDM engines and is equipped with the new Common Rail injectors that, thanks to a servo solenoid shutter budget, control with high precision the amount of gas injected into the combustion chamber with a sequence more quickly and flexibly than ever before. In particular, thanks to the number of injections (up to within one cycle is optimized by the introduction of diesel into the combustion chamber and is thus more gradual combustion diesel, with beneficial effects in terms of fuel consumption, emissions , acoustics and driveability. It follows that, over the previous generation, the new common rail injector of the 1.3 JTDM-2 provides an advantage Euro5 consumption and CO2 cycle type contains both emissions.

JTDM engines-2 can produce a more advanced strategies to optimize the combustion, for example, with how Injection Rate Shaping (two consecutive injections with an interval hydraulic zero) are reduced noise, fuel consumption and an eventual Euro 6 , harmful emissions (the potential is - 30% oxides of nitrogen).

The new unit of the Alfa Romeo MiTo features a turbocharger with variable geometry turbocharger which ensures optimized throughout the operating range: the power increases by 5 hp and fuel consumption is reduced to 6% in the urban cycle, thanks to the Stop & Start system, the device that manages the temporary shutdown of the engine and starts it again ensuring reduced fuel consumption and low noise in the cockpit in the moments when the device operates. Coupled with Start & Stop debuts on the Alfa Romeo MiTo also the Gear Shift Indicator, the system suggests the best gear ratio to optimize fuel consumption and signals the need to engage the gear and when it is best to climb.
All in favor of consumption: 4.3 liters per 100 km in combined cycle and a CO2 emissions level of 112 g / km. Respectable performance: 180 km / h top speed and 11.6 seconds to accelerate from 0 to 100 km / h.
