Fiat has been testing the next generation Palio in Brazil for a while and now we have the clear pictures of the next generation Palio. The new Palio is expected to be launched in Brazil next month.
The earlier generation Palio was a huge success for Fiat in most part of the world. However the Palio could not make a mark for Fiat in India, thanks to the launch of Tata Indica at the same time which resembled Palio in its looks. The Palio was little overpriced than the Indica which was one of the main reasons for Palio’s steady growth in Indian market.
In styling aspect, the new Palio carries over from its preceder. The overall silhouette of the new Palio will resemble closely with the old one. There have been changes to the front and rear in the form of newly designed headlamps and tail lamps. The headlamps look more of the Punto type and the front bumper has been inspired from the Punto styling as well. In the rear, the tail lamps are elongated and are designed very well to blend the car’s overall design. The window lines now look more aggressive which sweeps back to the top of the rear door – a design seen most of the present generation cars.
Weather the new Palio will come to India is still a big question as Fiat India recent announced that it has not got any plans to launch a small car till 2013. Fiat India earlier had hinted about a sub-Punto hatchback for Indian market and we feel the new Palio will definitely suit Fiat’s plans.
