Is the Alfa Romeo MiTo 1.4 actually any fun to drive, or is this merely style over substance?
30 January 2025 09:45
Having previously owned hot hatches, I can honestly say the MiTo 1.4 is a fun car to drive. It’s not the fastest thing out there, but in Dynamic mode it feels nimble and eager. It’s direct steering that loves being thrown into corners. But it's definitely more than just a pretty face.

I honestly don't think it's much more than style. Don’t get me wrong, it’s not a bad car to drive, but I just don’t think it’s enough Alfa Romeo for me. Steering is a bit numb and suspension is too soft to drive spiritedly.
