Not the best you can buy.Only if everything else is out of reach.

 

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) The interiors are very badly screwed together. A new palio rattles more than even a swift which has clocked 40000Kms. Shame b cos despite being a fiat  its poorly built.

 

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Engines good.Gearbox rubbery.The fan makes a noise that can be really disturbing. The car sounds like a truck when the fan is running.The aircon's performance is very inconsistent.

 

Ride Quality & Handling Its the cars party piece.Exceptional for a small car.

 

Final Words Its a flogged horse.Too outdated and crude for present day India. Would not recommend it to anybody The reliability is appalling. The car has done just 25000Kms and has broken down 6 times.1)@ 1000Kms Clutch failed-assembly had to be replaced  2) Ignition key failed-barrel had to be changed 3) Ignition key failed again- Barrel had to be changed  4)Ignition key again failed-the ring had to be changed 5) Ignition key failed-the entire assembly including the key had to be changed 6) water pump failed- had to be replaced

 

Areas of improvement Fiat needs to up its quality and service.I guess the trouble is because they have tied up with Tata.imagine guys who've worked on trucks working on your Fiat.it just doesn make sense,An exclusive service centre must be established for Fiat.
