The new Fiat Bravo impresses with its dynamic lines and certainly is a delight to the eye. The car is very elegant, and sleek front with its elongated headlamps, the bottom line of windows and reminiscent of the old Bravo stops contributing to sports broadcasting. The design of Italian cars has always been leading in this case also no exception. Inside the passenger compartment space is large, the front is quite wide, the rear seats also have enough space in height. This feeling of width is influenced by the lateral line of windows, and rear are much smaller than before and this creates a sense of narrow, but that does not in any way affect the comfort. There is ample room for greater passenger and head and knee, but with the proviso that the front seats must be in the most extreme positions. Boot with its 400 liters is a guarantee for a relaxing trip. The materials used are high in the cockpit, the dashboard design is superb. Construction does not surrender the leaders in the class, such as assembly shows no weaknesses. Bravo is the engine of a 120 hp, the working volume is 1368 cc Of course, as probably guess where this power comes to turbocharging. Amazing feeling but in no case for such a small engine, more so with its approximately 1300 kg dry weight Fiat Bravo is not at all easy. As we have said engine has a turbo, but everything is very different from the old turbine.
