According to reports emerging online, we can expect the Fiat Linea T-Jet in India by mid-2010. The 1.4-liter T-Jet petrol engine can give either 120PS or 152PS, the former will most likely be the Indian version’s rating.
The advertisement is not recent and considering Schumacher has moved to Mercedes, this Ad is no longer relevant to the die-hard Schumacher-Ferrari fan.
But for those looking forward to the high-power sedan this year, you’ve got a good excuse for turning up the volume and clicking the play button.
T-Jet is more than just a badge with chrome. Its mental.
The puny petrol engine on the Fiat Linea isn’t helping sales scoot along so in comes the mental T-Jet variant.
The turbocharged 1.4 liter petrol engine develops 120 PS@5000 rpm and 206Nm of torque right from 1750rpm.
The Linea T-Jet will accelerate from 0-100 kph in a staggeringly low 9.2 seconds and will run till 200kph. The Linea will be the first petrol car under 10 lakh rupees to come with a turbocharger.
Apart from the racy engine, the Linea will come with features like Hill Holder function (for hill starts where the car would automatically brake to stop it rolling backwards when you take your foot off to accelerate), Rain sensing wipers, Automatic headlamps and Reverse parking sensors.
