Fiat uno Review :

First launched in 1988, the Fiat Uno is a competitor of the Toyota Starlet and Daihatsu Charade. Relying on typical Italian body, Fiat tried to steal the market in this class. Uno offers features that are complete in its class, such as electric windows, central door locks, rear fog lamp and rear seat folding mechanism to expand luggage capacity.

While the engine, Fiat is still out of date for the size of the era of the late 80s. Despite having engine capacity of 1301 cc, Fiat has not been implemented so that the crossflow type combustor inlet and exhaust are on one side. This makes the Fiat is less efficient in terms of fuel consumption. But the power in the run underneath reliable enough so that the stop and go conditions can be solved easily.

Italian-made car's performance is quite promising. In new condition, Uno II (1372 cc) can drive up to 170 km / h. Acceleration 0-100 km / h dilibas in less than 11.4 seconds.

Unfortunately, car manufacturers Fiat withdrew in 1995. However, if they look the back, Fiat is exploring Indonesia since 1910. Even the name Fiat has been grounded in Indonesia through Fiat Sport Coupe Balilla. No less interesting is the legendary Fiat 1100 in the era of the '60s.
