The Italian carmaker Fiat is planning to launch a four-wheel-drive mini SUV of the acclaimed 500 minicar, according to latest German media reports.
The Fiat SUV, named the Fiat 500 Giardinetta will fight its rival rival Mini Clubman, and will look similar to it, with a distinct wagon-like appearance
The Fiat 500 Giardinetta, sources say, will almost certainly use the same 4WD system found on the Fiat Panda hatch. The Fiat 500 itself is based on the same platform as the Fiat Panda.
32,000 units of the small-sized Fiat 500 Giardinetta will be produced from 2010 onwards. If this car has the same pull as the Fiat 500 (which eventually will happen, we guess) production will be increased multi-fold. A long wheelbase Fiat 500 has already been produced by Italian coach-builder Castagna, which was displayed recently at the Geneva Motor Show.
