FIAT Tipo 5 Doors 2016-Present Photos, engines & full specs

Fiat revived the Tipo nameplate in 2015 by creating a new vehicle in three shapes: sedan, station wagon, and hatchback, and all of them were built on a budget in Turkey.

Fiat's financial status was not on the bright side of the balance anymore, and the Italian carmaker needed a solution to sell more cars, and it needed it fast. Also, it needed solutions to build this car on a budget and sell it with a profit even though it was affordable. But since we're talking about Fiat, they found a way to do that.

The hatchback was not the first to reach the assembly lines in Turkey. It came second and featured the same front fascia as its three-box sibling. Regardless of the car's qualities, it was well designed, with angry-looking headlights that flanked a chromed mesh grille which, in turn, supported the Fiat badge in the middle. It shared the same A- and B-pillars with the sedan and the station wagon, but from there on, there was a significant difference at the C-pillar, which concluded the greenhouse's shape at the back, supporting the tailgate. Moreover, all versions received a roof spoiler with integrated third brake light.

Inside, Fiat installed the same dashboard as in the station wagon, with a larger infotainment screen than in the sedan, and that was an option. But the customers shouldn't expect a high-quality interior or leather seats. Also, it shared the same rear bench with the station wagon, which expanded the otherwise small trunk.

Fiat didn't want to invest too much in this project built atop an existing platform and installed already developed diesel and gasoline engines.
