Italian auto maker
Fiat is planning to launch their famous sedan Viaggio in India. Fiat sets their
plans to launch the vehicle on Indian roads in the beginning of 2014. Now there
are two models available in Fiat’s fleet
in India are the Linea and Grande Punto. With a competing price tag of Rs. 8 to
15 lakh Viaggio is expected to mark a challenge against Toyota Corolla Altis
and Chevrolet Cruz.
Specification Set of Fiat Viaggio: The Indian class of Fiat Viaggio will bear a 4 cylinder 1.4 litre
Turbocharged T Jet engine which will output 1368 CC of power. This engine
consists of 16valve powertrain which delivers 120 bhp and a maximum torque of
206 Nm. There are also chances for getting another variant of more powerful engines like 1.6 litre or 1.8 litre
in India, but Fiat has not finalized about it. It will be associated with a six
speed double clutch quick drying transmission unit. The main attraction of T
jet powertrain is it is designed specially to avoid loss of power during gear
shifting and the result will be a powerful car which is easy to handle in all
terrains. The front system of Fiat Viaggio is fully enabled with McPherson and
is independent also and the rear beam torsion is semi independent and both
these systems are combined together to deliver smooth driving experience. Fiat
claims that the car will give an average mileage of 12 to 14 KM/L in city
riding and 14 KM/L if it is on the highway.
