The new Fiat Bravo

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.
This maximum torque is achieved very early, so almost no intrinsic turbo-hall. Working regimes of low engine draws almost as diesel, but unlike the diesel power is unfolding very smoothly to a peak of 6500 rpm, as throughout the range shows no weaknesses. The sound is a great engine, whose power and torque of 206 Nm in combination with a precise array of gears, achieved impressive 9.6 seconds from 0-100 km/h, a result typical for cars with 20-30 “horse more. Fiat philosophy of reducing the working volume (downsizing) resulted in there, although typically sporting qualities, the car is very economical, as the average cost for normal driving range between 6.5-7 liters per 100 kilometers. In a nutshell economical emotion.
