I hope FIAT provides the ABS and airbags as opton at least. Ideally they should include it in the top end version.

Any definite dates of launch of car.

@abhi
4.8lacs is for base version or high end version??

At least fiat should provide airbags in base version

hope they launch it pretty soon

Magazines mentioned 170 Nm torque.

Where did you get these specifications?

abhi4032 · 26th January 2008, 17:08

I got these details from a Fiat delear who is a close friend of mine in Hyderabad. But he was also not sure about these details. Maximum fiat delears know that fiat is going to launch a Multijet Palio, but they are afraid to say this coz it will ruin the current sales of Stiles. He was not sure about the ABS and airbags,even he didnt got a correct info from Fiat, it was something like a rumour he said. This two could be the contents of a limited edition(maybe). He also didnt got the full details. But he promise that he will let me know with recent updates.

The measurements seem to be for Punto than the Palio.
I have no doubt these are wrong.
4.8 Lakhs would be a killer price for the top-end version.

If the lenght is 4030mm, then it wont be able to take the excise benefits.

Seems like the info is wrong.

Palio Stile length is 3827, height is 1440, width is 1620 and BS motoring people test drove it and confirmed torque is 170 NM @ 2000 RPM.

Plus the palio stile 1.1 weighs 990KG kerb how can diesel be 980

. Its probably gonna be around 1100 KG kerb.

That information is NOT correct. That website (maxabout.com) has mixed up Palio, Grande Punto (and who knows what else).
Fiat has shown the Palio MJD at the autoexpo. Its exactly same as the petrol palio as far as the dimensions are concerned. We have to wait for Fiat to announce other tech specs.

sajands · 27th January 2008, 17:38

just got the latest issue of Overdrive mag, which has the article on the palio MJD 1.3 there is no mention of ABS or Airbags being offered on the 1.3 JMD this is bad. I hope there is a DLX version of the 1.3 MJD with ABS atleast

finneyp · 27th January 2008, 20:38

Palio MJD may not have ABS & Airbags, if you need that, wait for the G Punto later this year!

abhi4032 · 28th January 2008, 00:45

Hey Guys I dont have any intention to give wrong details. What my friend had given me I just posted over here. Maybe he got confused between Palio and Punto. But he said this was the details of Palio Multijet.

sajands · 28th January 2008, 09:26

if the palio does not get the ABS and airbags then there is no way that fiat can caputer the market and make a dent to swift sales. wonder why fiat is doing this to the good old palio.
