Fiat Linea
Fiat has launched their brand new car in the market-the Fiat Linea which will rock the roads in the month of January 2009. A top selling tailgate, four doors and a boot will all be there in Fiat’s Grande Punto-based Linea; this Italian brand believes strongly that on a world-wide basis this car will be their second best seller after Grande Punto in spite of the fact that tailgate derived cars don’t have a good market particularly in UK.
The Linea has well-designed proportions with an arched rear window and a broad bootlid. There is a lot of room inside the car of which the credit goes to a wheelbase that has been extended from 2,510mm to 2,603mm. The increase in length between the wheels is a good advantage for the passengers as there will be enormous legroom; baggage is also well catered as there is a huge 500-litre boot. There in the bonnet is a strong engine line-up which will initially consist of one diesel and a pair of powerplants. The most admired unit is anticipated to be the 1.3 litre multijet oil-burner. It’s torquey, but can become coarse when used hard even though it is exceptionally reasonable and returns 57.6 mpg. In the interim, for the drivers who want superior performance or enhancement there’s the option of 77bhp 1.4L petrol powerplant or a 120bhp turbocharged version of a similar unit. It is apparent that the engineers have tuned the framework for comfort on the road. The ride is mind blowing and the suspension dealt with the uneven runway of our test route with ease. The flexible springs also helps to keep road noise to a minimum and the thick glass limit wind noise. The comfortable seats make the Linea a long drive cruiser.
Users feel that this car will give you a sure shot experience of a smooth drive. Overall this car will cater to your needs in comfort as well speed levels.
