Exterior Perfect build, Very nice design, Finishing is good at till small details. Front view with a very good Bumper, Grilles and Head lights give a nice appearance. Bent on the Doors are also very good.
Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Lots of space in front and backside seats, Good enough Boot space. Total 5-6 people can go easily. Seat height is also very good which gives very good comfort. Quality of the material used are really good with this 2012 onwards release.
Good control of power windows. Power Windows work till 59seconds after car is switched off. Visibility of front and back side of the car is good. Initially I thought that is not good. Later after becoming familiar with the car, I have realized the proper design of this.
My car has seat height adjustment, which is also useful.
Backside of Rear seat has metal cover which is good, one can fold the rear seats and take some goods over it.
Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Diesel car. Millage is good enough. I am getting 17km/litre in city and 19-20kmpl in Highways. Power is also good, I have compared with other cars in Highways and cities. Pick up is better than other cars, which I always notice. We can drive with 3rd gear most of the time in city with proper pick up and speed ( 30km/hour) Gear Transitions are smooth.
Ride Quality & Handling Steering is better than other cars. One can feel the easy of handling at sharp curves and ghat sections.
Ground clearance is the really better one (185mm). I have driven car very easily over many big humps and bad road in villages.
As an example I have driven the car with the top speed of 110 to 120km/h ( Bangalore - Hassan Highway 185km with very less traffic ) and overall I have felt the cars stability which is really good.
Final Words I have driven 7000km till now. Punto is the really a very good car with many good features, one who wants a Hutchback 6-8L can go for this.
Areas of improvement Fiat has to give more service centers like Maruti and Hyundai.
