Fiat Tipo was a small family car, produced between years 1988-1995 in Europe, 1995-1997 in Brazil & 1995-2000 in Turkey. The Tipo was initially available only as a five-door hatchback. The car was made entirely out of galvanized body panels to avoid rust, and was built on a completely new Fiat platform, which was later used on Fiat, Alfa Romeo, and Lancia models. It also stood out because of its boxy styling that gave it innovative levels of packaging, rear passenger room being greater than that in a rear wheel drive Ford Sierra, but in a car that was of a similar size to the smaller Ford Escort. This type of design was comparable to the smaller Fiat Uno, which was launched five years before the Tipo.
Since 2015, Fiat is producing a second generation of the Tipo for European & Turkish market, and this time is available in 4 versions: hatchback, sedan, estate & crossover. But rumors say that Tipo will be replaced in future with a new crossover! So, this is my vision for the next generation of Fiat's small family car: The Tipo's now transformed into a crossover-coupe with funky design! Is it a sedan, an SUV or a wagon? You can call it whatever you want!
