With a starting price of £10,995 OTR the new car, which goes on sale in the UK in January, represents outstanding value for money. At the top end of the Punto Evo range, the highly specified Sporting 1.4 MultiAir version costs £15,295 – an OTR price that includes sports seats, cruise control, side skirts, air conditioning, sports suspension and 17-inch alloy wheels as standard. Available with a choice of five low emissions, Euro 5 engines, all fitted with Start&Stop as standard, the new Punto Evo comes in five different trim levels – Active, Dynamic, GP, Eleganza and Sporting. Among the advanced engine line-up are two power units featuring Fiat’s new MultiAir technology. The full list includes: 1.4 8-valve petrol, 1.4 16-valve MultiAir petrol (105bhp and 135bhp) and 1.3 16-valve MultiJet diesel (75bhp and 95bhp). Standard equipment in the entry-level Active model includes ABS anti-lock brakes with EBD, driver, passenger and knee airbags, radio/CD/MP3 player, power steering, electric mirrors and Blue&Me infotainment. Dynamic trim level adds such equipment as: side and window airbags, leather steering wheel and air conditioning, while Eleganza models get alloy wheels, cruise control and rear parking sensors as standard. The GP specification includes rear spoiler, dark tinted headlights and foglights. “There has been much speculation about the price of the new Punto Evo since we first announced the car earlier this year, and we’re delighted now to be able to reveal details,” says Elena Bernardelli, marketing director, Fiat Group Automobiles UK. “Punto Evo is in an important and highly competitive sector of the market but we are confident that we have a beautifully-equipped car at value-for-money prices that will keep it competitive and desirable.” The Punto Evo goes on sale through Fiat’s 170-strong UK dealer network in January 2010.

It's not, as the name seems to suggest, some rip-snorting high-performance special, but an update of the entire Grande Punto range. There are exterior styling revisions and smarter fixtures and fittings inside the cabin, but the really big changes are to the engine range, all of which now have a stop-start system and meet Euro V emissions regulations. The base 1.4 is otherwise unchanged, but there's a new injection system for the 1.3 turbodiesel, which is now offered in two states of tune, and the Punto is the first Fiat Group car in the UK with the clever Multiair 1.4-litre petrol engines. These provide an electro-hydraulic form of variable valve control to combine efficiency with good driveability.

Warranty Expert Useful sites Free content on your site Fiat Grande Punto 1.3 MultiJet 75 Active - Car Review Review Added: 24 Mar 2006 Last update: 25 Dec 2009 IT is now some 12 years since Fiat bridged the gap in its small and medium hatchback line-up with the first generation Punto range.Back in 1994 this stylish and spacious supermini hit the ground running, becoming Car of the Year in 1995 and the Best-Selling Car in Europe two years later and, along with the arrival of Punto Mark II in 1999, more than six million have graced the world's driveways since.Now at a showroom near you, the Turin car giant has introduced the third generation of a supermini which has a pretty hefty reputation to live up to.But in fact, Grande Punto has already won widespread acclaim for its hugely accommodating interior as it faces up to B-sector opposition such as the Renault Clio, Suzuki Swift and Ford Fiesta.Grande Punto is set to be one of the most important vehicles in Fiat's 107-year history, being the latest in a long line-up of stylish small cars that has created and built the Italian carmaker's legendary heritage which began with the Fiat 500 back in 1934.It is offered in three or five-door mode with distinctive stand-out-from-the-crowd styling developed by the Fiat Styling Centre and comes with more than a hint of Maserati in the finished product courtesy of input from Giorgetto Giugiaro's Italdesign Studio.The end product is a quite elegant and distinctly Italian creation within which naturally aerodynamic lines merge comfortably with muscular wheel arches at each corner.Overhead the steeply raked windscreen contributes to a handsome profile and some impressive aerodynamic efficiency and fine stability on the move.There is a choice of six engines on offer - 1.2-litre 65bhp and 1.4-litre 77bhp versions of Fiat's renowned eight-valve Fire petrol engine and four examples of Fiat's MultiJet commonrail direct injection turbo diesel technology with 75bhp and 90bhp versions of the award-winning 1.3-litre 16-valve unit plus 120bhp and 130bhp examples of the 1.9-litre 8-valve MultiJet.Both petrol engines and the 75bhp 1.3-litre MultiJet are paired with five-speed manual gearboxes while the remaining engines are mated to six-speed manual transmissions.There are five specification levels to tempt the discerning buyer kicking off with the generously equipped Active, moving through Active Sport, Dynamic and Eleganza models before topping out with the Sporting version of the Grande Punto.Driven here is the Grande Punto 1.3-litre 75bhp MultiJet in three-door form boasting Active trim which includes electric front windows, remote centrtal locking, 'follow-me-home' headlights, electric door mirrors, trip computer, ABS braking with Electronic Brake Distribution (EBD), plus four-speaker sound system with CD and steering wheel-mounted controls.Following in the tyre tracks of a predecessor with a well deserved reputation as one of the biggest superminis around, Grande Punto takes the space race to even greater lengths with further increased overall exterior dimensions.This has translated into an even more manoeuvrably accommodating interior which houses plenty of space for four adults with enough to squeeze in a fifth occupant in the rear seats, plus a generous boot room with all seats occupied or the rear seats folded flat.Becoming an easy rider is simple in the Grande Punto with standard seat height adjustment combining very agreeably with the reach and rake adjust tiller to provide the ideal driving position sitting comfortably facing a thoughtfully laid out dash and centre console from where overall vision is fine.Fiat's Grande Punto positively revels in putting on the style for interested bystanders and provides that decidedly well put together feel to the interior.Perhaps the electric power steering could have been a little more generous with feedback but on the tarmac, this hatchback handles well and is easy to drive while there is plenty of the fun factor to enjoy when linking together a series of twisty bits.The diesel engine is nicely refined, performing in smooth, well mannered fashion through the range, contributing to a comforting ride over the long haul with, dependent upon individual driving style, the promise of around 60mpg over the combined driving cycle at journey's end.Competitively priced, the Grande Punto is a fine effort from Fiat and with a five-star Euro NCAP crash test rating, low insurance grouping and exhaust emission levels it looks well set to provide some very agreeably priced family motoring.FAST FACTSFiat Grande Punto 1.3 MultiJet 75 Active 3drPrice: £8,495Mechanical: 75bhp, 1,248cc, 4cyl diesel engine driving front wheels via 5spd manual gearboxMax speed: 103mph0-62mph: 13.6 secsInsurance group: 3Combined mpg: 60.1CO2 emissions: 123g/kmBiK rating: 18%Warranty: 3yrs/ 60,000 miles; 3yrs paint; 8yrs anti-rust Words: Malcolm Robertshaw Keywords: fiat , punto Rate this article: Login to rate this article...
