      Exterior Still look fresher than any other car by any angle you see it.

      Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Feature rich car of its own time tachometer, power windows, lock for rear windows. Exellent space can fit three full grown adults in rear. Can any road in India, I have riven it on the worst roads. most comfortable car.

      Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox 1.2l engine is responsive (only third gear is slightly long), can go beyond 100km on highway car without any jerk and you won't feel it.

      Fuel economy in city is 11 km/l on highway easily can give 16 or may be beyond (I always check it on highways) can go more than 60 km on tankful 40L (excluding 7L of reserve). Gear box is very good (sometime notchy), best part is reverse lock.

      Ride Quality & Handling No question best car in ride and handling.

      Final Words I'm a proud owner of Fiat Palio 1.2 ELX for last ten years and it has done 78622 km til now.

      Areas of improvement Sales and service should be quick like other car companies.

      Excellent built, ride and handling, highway manner, built like wall and to the lastJust nothing (not every mechanic can under stand it), lack of spare parts, service station

      Its design reduces drag, u can see this type of desing in skoda fabia and volkswagen polo. where as palio was launched in 2001. Its AC is also very effective due to its 1242 cc engine. there is two movements in door , which is in very few cars. u cannot lock the driver door car without key.

       

      Engine Performance is exellent , Fuel Economy is also not bad for 1242 cc ingine. mine is with LPG kit. after purchase i drive it from ahmedabad to rajkot. effortlessly i drive at 100 km , and on lpg its performance was like petrol.

       

      Ride Quality is very good. i find its steering little hard ( mine is without power steering) I drive many cars without power steering but i find it little hard.

       

      Final Words Exellent car, ahead of its time, value for money.

      This car is not for them who get easily frustated. As its spares  are not easily avialable and most of mechenics refuse to repair it  as due to its sturdy design it require more effort than a maruti. u have to find a good mechanic for it and shop who keeps its spares.

       

      Areas of improvement Turning radius, service and spares.

       

      it was quite advance car when launched in india, so could not get good response. everything is exeldue to high turning radius difficult to park and manuvoure in our narrow indian streets

      Got a 2002 model in 2008, when it had done about 40,000 kms. Overall very happy and in love with the car. Had difficulty with the TATA Motors service centres, they were not really interested in servicing a FIAT despite the sharing arrangement TATA motors had with Fiat. The local mechanics had some trouble figuring out the problems with this car.

      All the problems I faced with this car over the 5 years I had it were majorly electrical, mainly because I couldnt find a mechanic to service them properly. Mechanically it was a very solid car.

      Exterior Had a orange one, would turn a few heads.

      Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Superb space and height. Very comfortable suspension and ride, would absorb the road disturbances well.

      Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Slightly underpowered on the highway, beyond the speed of 80kmph, slick and smooth gearbox with a nice heavy clutch, gave me 8-9 kmpl in the city and 12-14 kmpl on the highway.

      Ride Quality & Handling Excellent, as expected from an Italian car.

      Final Words No regrets.

      Areas of improvement Need more Fiat Service Stations.

      Build, space and handlingLack of service stations, poor resale value

      I am real fan of fiat palio,This is a good word of Comfort -Safety -Friendly. Since 2012 i am driving my palio, this is one of the important part of our life. but the negative side i feel the worst after Service and High cost Spare parts market. Fiat india should be take a survey about her market for better future.
