Novitec has unveiled their extensive line of performance accessories for Alfa Romeo's new MiTo hatchback. Cars equipped with the 1.4-liter turbocharged petrol engine can be outfitted with Novitec's Powerjet 2 control module which boosts the engine's output from 155 hp (114 kW) to 186 hp (137 kW). Thanks to the extra 31 hp (23 kW), the modified MiTo runs from 0-100 km/h in 7.4 seconds which is a 0.7 second improvement over stock models.
Given the importance of diesel engines, Novitec is also introducing a Powerrail 5 control module which can be outfitted to 1.3 JTD and the 1.6 JTD. The module allows 1.3 JTD models to boast an extra 20 hp (14.9 kW) while the 1.6 JTD gains 24 hp (17.7 kW).
For owners wanting to "butch up" the MiTo's cute styling, the company offers an aerodynamic styling package that features a revised front bumper, aggressive side skirts, a roof-mounted spoiler, and an integrated rear diffuser. Other styling options include a sport exhaust with up to four tailpipes, 18-inch wheels in either silver or matte black, and an adjustable coil-over suspension that reduces the MiTo's ride height by 35 to 65 millimeters.
