Alfa MiTo: Italian car, Italian suppliersThe Alfa Romeo MiTo is a three-door small-segment car with a designinspired by the Alfa 8C Competizione supercar. Italian suppliers con-tribute substantial content to the MiTo, especially those owned by Alfaparent Fiat group. The car gets its engines, two gasoline and one diesel,

from Fiat Powertrain Technologies. Magneti Marelli, another Fiatgroup-owned supplier, provides the telematics and exhaust systems aswell as the rear and fog lights. Independent Italian suppliers MTA andBrembo also have parts in the car. MTA, which makes electronic com-

ponents, supplies the car’s power distribution box, radiator cap andbattery terminals. Brembo provides the Mito’s brake components.
