Henceforth at Fiat will be own "Evo". But it is a question not of competitor Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution, and about modernised hatchback Grande Punto which has been presented for the first time on a motor show in Frankfurt. And, this car henceforth loses prefix Grande in the name, but gets letters Evo. As a result restyling car is called Fiat Punto Evo.
So... How "Evolution" differs from old Grande Punto? First of all appearance – the car has received new "muzzle" with other bumper and a radiator enclosure. Besides, the interior which became much more interesting is seriously changed.
And also Italians have made Punto Evo hardly more safely in comparison with the predecessor – henceforth the car besides a standard set of pillows has still a pillow for protection of knees of the driver. There is also one more novelty – navigating system under name Blue@Me-TomMom which is the Italian answer to "budgetary" navigation from Renault (Frenchmen ask on it in Europe only 500 euros). Besides, system Blue@Me-TomMom is integrated into the car thanks to what the driver can display all information concerning, for example, of style of driving. Blue@Me-TomMom, certainly, will enter into the list of options together with such things as turning towards a headlight or help system at start uphill.
Under cowl Punto Evo there will be petrol units of family MultiAir with essentially new system of a drive gear of valves. I will not go deep now in technical subtleties. I will tell only that motors of family MultiAir are more powerful than similar units approximately on 10 %, of 10 % are more economic on the same and that is very important, the twisting moment in a zone of average turns at them has increased at once by 15 %. Also diesel engines in volume of 1,3 l Multijet, which steels have been updated also is hardly more powerful and more economic. And in addition to reduce fuel consumption the system "stop start" which now will start to put on Punto Evo should. And, already in a base complete set.
