The 29th Bologna Motor Show will see Fiat present three 'Sports' models. The Punto and the Multipla, will be joined by the 'Idea Sport', finished in micalised Racing Yellow bodywork and a Zender sports add-on kit.

Inside, this model will offer hi-tech perforated fabric trim in yellow and black.

The Fiat Idea Sport attracts for its more dynamic shape and is devoted to a young audience, on the move, that loves the idea of a multipurpose car but is also aware of image.

It can be distinguished by its slightly nervy lines created by distinctive front bumpers and sideskirts that are combined with the wheelarches and rear spoiler.

Larger wheels with 16 inch rims also increase the impression of power and solidity. The middle zone of the seats is in a high-tech cloth of incandescent black, interrupted by a double yellow stripe while the side strips are in black Alcantara to increase the feeling of containment.

The interior is pleasing to the touch and practical with its leather-trimmed steering wheel equipped with radio controls. These features also increase safety because they mean that drivers need not lift their gaze from the road. The model is also unrivalled when it comes to safety and driver and passenger protection.

The new MPV is one of the safest cars in its segment. In simple terms, the model offers up to 6 airbags (front with two activation stages, sidebags and curtain-bags that protect the rear passengers too); adjustable front seat-belts (with pretensioner and load limiter) and three point rear belts (including a central position).

The model also comes with Isofix attachments to enable you to carry even the smallest passengers in absolute safety. The Fiat Idea is also well-equipped for active safety with ABS and EBD as standard. ESP can be added as an option together with a Hill Holder for easier hill starts.

The model comes in a truly broad and diverse range that offers everyone their very own Fiat Idea.
