"Fiat": a lineup and characteristics of popular models

Automobile Corporation, located in Italy - Fiat. The range and prices are varied, so there is a customer for each car. The manufacturer produces industrial machinery, trucks, sports cars and so on. The company also has a large aerospace assortment.

History of Fiat

In the process of modernization of Italy, the company played a major role. In the twentieth century, FIAT became known to the whole world, and some cars became famous and are still in demand.

The official date for the creation of the corporation was 11.07.1899. The plant was opened in Turin next year. At that time, about 150 workers worked there, so no more than 25 cars were produced per year. The logo appeared in 1904. Fiat cars (the model line was not quite impressive at the beginning of the company's work) attracted attention with technical characteristics, especially FIAT 24 HP.

Already by 1908 the expansion of sales outlets began. At the same time, the range was renewed: buses, trucks, trams and engines were produced. The company took only a few years to completely change the level of production. Among the novelties can be noted batteries, cardan transmission. Gradually, activities are expanding, extending to such sectors as public transport, railways, and energy. Even before the First World War a branch in Russia was opened. In 2004, the universal car "Fiat-Idea" entered the market. It had such characteristics: excellent interior, high roof, multifunction panels, good lighting.

Fiat 124 Spider

In autumn 2015, a wonderful H1 class car from Fiat was introduced. The model range is often replenished with cars like this one. First, designers of not only this corporation worked on it, specialists of the company "Mazda" were connected to the work. Therefore, in the exterior and design, some Japanese features are seen along with Italian ones. In principle, the overall look of the car turned out to be very elegant, calm and dynamic.

Secondly, the engine deserves attention. The unit is designed for 1.4 liters. The transmission is mechanical (in some trim levels it is automatic 6-speed). Approximate price in America - 25 thousand dollars.

Fiat 500

Fiat 500 - the car from the company "Fiat". The car is a class A hatchback. In 2015, a modified version was introduced. Its release took place on the 58th anniversary of the release of the original model. In fact, if you look at the characteristics of a new model, you can say that there are not any special changes. Designers have worked on headlights, navigation lights, bumper. In the interior of the change more visible: the steering wheel, chairs, appliances. For an additional fee, you can purchase additional devices, such as multimedia. The color range is rich (12 colors are available). The cost fluctuates around 14 thousand dollars.

Fiat 500L

The model is slightly more expensive than the previous one - FIAT 500L. This time the company has significantly worked on the characteristics. "Fiat" (the lineup of this line differs at least by the presence of additional rows of seats and doors) presented a 5-door hatchback. Experts expected that, thanks to this decision, the number of sales will increase and popularity will increase. According to some Western critics, we can say that the design is a bit too smart: the car looks more like its direct competitor than the previous models of the line. The cost of this hatchback is about 18 thousand dollars.

Fiat 500X City Look

The 500X City Look is another interesting model from Fiat. The model range of this option is not impressive. The presented SUV was in 2014 in Paris. The manufacturer has been developing this machine for a sufficient amount of time, so 2 versions (urban and off-road) came out almost simultaneously. In appearance, there is practically no difference between them, except that the urban model is more elegant and tidy.

The basic equipment has 6 airbags, fog optics, tracking systems for other vehicles on the road, marking and preventing accidents.
