The Fiat Linea is here- It’s supposed to be Fiat’s Indian Operations’ savior by all means. If the Linea and Grande Punto end up selling like the Palio, Fiat’s Ranjangoan plant will be used merely as a secondary Tata plant to produce the Indigo and probably the Indicruz along with thousands of Multijet engines for export. How dreadful will that be if you were Fiat?
The Fiat Grande Punto arrived just in time to save Fiat from biting the dust. It’s a fine example of the modern Fiat. The styling, performance, design all of them point to one thing- Fiat is here to stay. The Grande Punto will meet Indians later in 2009. For those who don’t know, the Linea is to the Grande Punto, what the Indigo is to the Indica.
