Dear Sir, I am looking for a car which will give me reliability,safety,long term company and good mileage. Could you please give some idea about FIAT PETRA? I heared that FIAT's service is very poor. But How is the ar PETRA? Is it better than Maruti Baleno? which one will be better? Whose Engine is better? I dont want to repent after buying the car as I am going to use it for life time. My second question is between PETRA and Palio 1.6 sports whose mileage will be better? I was reading the comparison between the two in the website and it says taht Perta's FE is better than Palio . I was wondering because Palio is lighter than Petra. Please clarify. Looking forward for your kind reply. Thanks, -Ghosh

Dear Mr. Ghosh, Fiat Petra is undoubtedly one of the best car in India in its segment. Baleno too is one of the most admirable car. The problem with Petra is that its from Fiat, which has a doubt about its future in India. However Tata has an agreement with Fiat to take care of its sales and services in India, still there is a grey area! Petra and Baleno both are almost identical in performance and both are offered for a competitive price. Petra delivers better power than Baleno but lacks a bit in overall performance but at the same time Baleno has a bit higher price range than Petra. Since you are looking for a car for lifetime, you can think of Petra but still my recommendation is Baleno.
