Cox Automotive UK has named the most profitable used cars for dealers to sell in the UK. Analysing the data it collects from its physical auctions and online channels on the wholesale side and the retail data gained from its retail Motors.co.uk site it found that the Ford Focus, Fiat 500, Mini Cooper and Ford Fiesta were the most profitable ...

Although widely known today as a largely fun and affordable marque – due to the 500’s ongoing success – Fiat once made more rational products too. The 1980 mk1 Panda is a classic example and the Italian brand is resurrecting this approach with the new Tipo and re-entering the compact hatchback and estate market, the second-biggest sales segment in Europe. ...

Fiat has added a diesel unit to its 500 range. The brand was already the only carmaker to offer a diesel in the city car sector with the Panda. Dealers have opened order books for the 1.3-litre turbodiesel Multijet II  500 costing from £14,165. Fiat said it has bucked the trend in order to offer a car “ideally suited to ...

  Fiat calls its 2015-edition 500 a new car, but in truth it’s no more than a facelift. When that ‘face’ is as endearing as when it first launched in 2007 and still the best-selling car in its class, arguably not much needed to change.

Fiat dealers will be in a position to once again compete in the C-segment from late 2016 when the brand launches a brand new and as yet unnamed compact hatchback and estate. Fiat’s last offering in the segment, dominated by the Ford Focus, Vauxhall Astra and VW Golf, was the five-door only Bravo which went out of production in 2014. ...

Fiat will open order books in September for the new 500 – a very important car for dealers as it sells in big numbers and offers the most sustained serious competition to the all-conquering Mini. Since launching eight years ago the first generation 500 has sold 1.5 million across the globe. The new model, on sale at prices from £10,890, ...

The new Fiat 500X is the Italian brand’s equivalent of the Jeep Renegade, made alongside it at its Melfi factory and destined to accompany the Jeep in Fiat Chrysler Automobiles Brand Centre showrooms. There is no badge-engineering here, no clues to the relationship between the two cars, yet under the skin they are effectively identical, and offer the same engine ...

Fiat is returning to the North American market in January 2011 for the first time in 27 years. Fiat, which owns Chrysler, will initially sell the 500 as a competitor to the Mini through selected Chrysler dealers. Participating dealers based in conurbations, mostly on the east and west coasts, will devote showroom space to an Italian themed Fiat Studio area.
