Alfa Romeo picks New Mito Logo

 Alfa Romeo picks New Mito Logo
Alfa Romeo Mi.To

First interior image released

Today Alfa Romeo announced the winner of their MiTo logo competition and the winner is this neo-Jugenstil-ish logo. Opinions on whether this is the right logo for the new Mini-killer are not unanimous here in the WCF newsroom, but who are we to veto a popularity vote.

Whether this logo will actually be featured on the new Alfa MiTo remains questionable though, after all Alfa's 'naming the new Junior' contest resulted in the Furiosa nameplate to take top honors beating Agea, Enos, Everson, Fira, Milo, Mod, Nevo, Solea, Sparvo, Velvetta and Ventura. A contest which didn't even mention the eventual Mi(lan)To(rino) name.

The Alfa Romeo site in Holland features a first (low res) interior image of the new MiTo, something Alfa Romeo HQ obviously wanted to keep under wraps since they have not yet mentioned it. The image confirms what one of our spy photographers already revealed in early March.

yes....a little disproportionate. badge 7 for me....wouldn't it be cool to be able to choose badges for your cars....i think its a simple and cost effective way to put the "custom" onto boring mass produced products....just don't offer fade paint jobs....*shiver

hey, a lot of MINI owners are trading in for 500s the interior looks hot but I like badge 7 the most, the winner appears a little too big to me.

I wonder what agreement they have with cagiva since they have a 125 cc moped called the MITO since ten years ago...

It looks cool on the computer, but on a car in real life I feel like it might just look 'broken' - maybe even damaged

not a fan of the interior or the badge although with the badge i have little faith that just because it was voted the winner means that it will be the final design
