14.10.2003 NEXT YEAR'S FACELIFTED FIAT MULTIPLA CAUGHT TESTING |
|
The
Fiat Multipla, praised continually by motoring journalists but never accepted
by car buyers, will have its outrageous looks toned down when a revised
version goes on sale next year. Out goes the controversial stepped scuttle
panel which houses the foglamps on the current version, while the round
headlamps are ditched in favour of conventional units. A distinct swage
down the side, drawn from the Stilo, aims to give the new Multipla a more
solid appearance.
The rear upward-opening door will also be revised. Inside Fiat will use their field leading knowledge in maximising interior adding the Stilo's ideas to the Multipla. The original 3-in-a-row seating plan will be retained, along with the high sides and large glass window area. A wider range of engines will be added. |
