Comments on: Punto drops Grande name, undergoes Evolution? http://paultan.org/2009/09/01/fiat-punto-evo/ Paul Tan on the Automotive Industry Tue, 14 Feb 2012 08:56:31 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Kamal Nordin http://paultan.org/2009/09/01/fiat-punto-evo/#comment-280023 Kamal Nordin Sat, 05 Dec 2009 02:59:52 +0000 http://paultan.org/?p=16222#comment-280023 Hi All, I own a Punto Grande and my wife use it to send and fetch the kids to and from the school plus running errants. Let me tell you I'm very happy with the car. It is nippy, economical and easy to menouver. The stereo is excellent with no additional amp or modification required. The city button for the stearing wheel makes parking the car in small and tight places even easier than can be discribe with 1000 words. Overall we are very happy with the car and I sincerely believe that the technology, quality and reliability have move a great deal since the olden days of FIAT (Fiat Is Always Trouble). The Punto Grande is practical for city driving. It can do better with higher torque and power but for ladies I higly recommend the car. Thanks Kamal Hi All,

The new system is called Blue&Me – TomTom and it is a fully integrated infotainment system that lets you manage telephony, GPS navi and other information functions on a touch-screen LCD.----------wow itu jew yang advance? hehehe tomtom bak hahhaa Fiat seems to be shouting the loudest about the latest version of its Blue&Me which debuts in the Punto Evo.

It doesn't matter how competitively priced these cars are, Malaysians being Malaysian, if a car doesn't have a Honda/Toyota/Nissan badge, they won't bother. Look at all the reasonably priced Italian cars here - Fiat Bravo GT (RM115k), Alfa Romeo 159 (RM188k) - you hardly see any on the roads. Pity.

Firstly avoid them at all cost, at parties. I will explain the origins. In the 1970’s when Volkswagen were almost bust. Before the Golf, Volkswagen cars tended to caught fire. So what better to run down a rival. So maybe in the 70’s Fiat’s weren’t that reliable. But unlike Volkswagen, at least you had a car to fix.
