Where variety of engines meets standard and comfort

FIAT Punto is a reasonable super mini with affordable practicality

FIAT Punto is a true rival of Ford Fiesta in all dimensions. It is affordable, reasonable with low running cost, good to handle, easy to buy and easy to live with, reasonable in practicality and above all, good overall performance is under the belt of FIAT Make.

It is a mini hatchback with good interior and loaded with reasonable features with affordable quality. Though not extraordinary in output the real thing is an initial investment which is very low regarding its worthy rivals which are very dear and expensive to buy. It is best for town riding and for city traffic.

Engine range is interesting one

There are several engines FIAT Punto offers, in which we have 0.9litre petrol, 1.2litre petrol, 1.4litre petrol and a single 1.3litre diesel engine. A little bit slow as far as speed is concerned, but 1.4litre petrol is the right pick due to its overall performance. It is capable of 133bhp and 152lb/ft torque along with regular petrol engine with four cylinders and sixteen valves.

It is good in speed and takes 8.2 seconds to reach from 0-62m/h along with the top speed of 125m/h. its fuel consumption is very economical with 50m/g of fuel average along with 125g/km of Co2 emissions. It is fitted with five-speed manual gearbox and front wheel drive system as standard. Some petrol versions are available in six-speed gearboxes as well.  It offers good driving experience. It is very smooth in response and noiseless.

Exterior and interior are good in designing and fitting

Punto has a reasonable exterior with good look. Its body colored bumper enhances its beauty and its size. The front is impressive with detailed two portion grille along with big headlamps front fog lights openings are good. Perfect aerodynamic body shape makes it glamorous. Sides are plane with wide creases on it and tail is good as well.

The roof line is good.  Interior is simple and nice. Sitting arrangement is a little bit squeezed at the front and at the rear as well but affordable. Features are normal and overall Interior is just fine.

Features are reasonable in this small hatchback

FIAT Punto is not very big in size but it is a complete car with five-door models in regular. Its features are reasonable with good and affordable practicality. There are anti-lock braking system, different alarms and warning alerts, parking sensors, CD player, 3×3 point rear seat belts, PAS, remote and central  locking, standard airbags with side curtains, audio remote, alloy and steel wheels, dual zone climate control, adaptive cruise control with speed limiter and stability control system,  ISOFIX children seat anchor points,  folding rear seats, electric windows and mirrors, heated seats and mirrors, sat nav, traction control and steering wheel rake and reach adjustment is available there along with marginal good safety features.

FIAT has not given much importance to its safety features. There are general safety features with not extraordinary safety measures. Euro NCAP has not satisfied with its safety kits. Though it is reliable and durable safety features are not up to standard.
