First of all I am must admit that m not a big Fiat official or a fan
but i know Fiat is a very reliable and big company as it owns Ferrari
(although huge fan of Ferrari F1 team), Maserati, Alfa Romeo, Barchetta
etc.
I just purchased a Fiat Linea 1.3 Emotion Diesel few days back from
Mohali and the car is awsome. I mean it. The mileage, Looks, Design,
and pick up are very good also. Although i have read lots of people
talking about its low pick up and power but i havent found anything
like that. and on the top of that it gives 17km/l in chandigarh (city
condition). i think its awsome.
And i also found many readers saying the interior plastic isnt good
enough but i think its far beter than new Honda city when i test drove
that car. although i must admit that interior plastic is not a plus
point here. But we should understand that this car is one class above
its price tag so we can negotiate a bit with it plastic
interiors. well overall its truly made for indian with looks,
loaded features and an amazing price tag and most importantly the
mileage and with extra 5000 bucks you would get 2 + 2 i.e. 4 years or
1,50,000 km of extended warranty of all spareparts, engine related
stuffs and electrical stuff on excluding those outside breakage that is
understandable.
What i fear about Fiat is its service centres. althoughit it has tied
up with Tata for spares and sales but i think the behaviour of the
salesman and other officials at Tata Fiat dealers are that forthcoming
and well to fiat aspirants. So i hope that Tata people doesnt
treat fiat customers like a step child. Otherwise i have no doubt
and also hope that car would do well.
The design is awsome as its predecessor with italian ancestors.
I think you guys who wanna own it dont get carried away with comments
from those who just test drove it and then tells you about its low on
power. people wont know much about the car's power and pick in few kms
drive. So go ahead and own it as admiration is surely guaranteed not
only for italian looks but also for the interiors and its
commendable machinery.
