Fiat Avventura, one more addition to the fray of hatchback turned crossover, is now launched in India after a long wait. Over the changes made, Fiat’s crossover carried a standard spare wheel, raised ground clearance of 205mm and 16-inch wheels across all the variants.
Most of the cosmetic gimmick is drawn from the new hatchback Punto Evo. The nose is reworked and add-ons are placed over the bumper for a go-anywhere looks. The aluminum roof rails and scuff plate further add to that appeal.
Inside the cabin, reworks are immense in numbers. Prominently, the dashboard gets a dual-tone treatment, compass and tilt meter for the off-roader appearance.
Underneath the hoods, a 1.4-liter petrol and 1.3-liter diesel are planted with a 5-speed manual transmission.
In line of competition, Fiat’s Avventura stands head-to-head with Volkswagen Cross Polo, Toyota Etios Cross, Ford EcoSport and others of the same kind.
