The Fastback maintains the versatility of its range, which includes several engines with Turbo 200, Turbo 200 Hybrid and Turbo 270, which also equip the new Fastback Abarth with specific calibration for maximum performance and sportiness. The design, one of the Fastback’s strengths, has been improved. With a new front end, the model gains an exclusive, redesigned grille with straighter, more precise lines, as well as vertical elements that make the car even more imposing, while also receiving a new gloss black finish on the front air intakes.
“The Fastback revolutionized this segment and, with its disruptive design, set a trend for new coupe SUVs in Brazil. With the changes, the model will continue to offer a unique design, space and comfort, lots of technology and a versatile range of engines, including hybrid versions that provide access to a wider range of consumers, making it a sales success and making Fiat a leader in this category,” comments Federico Battaglia, Fiat brand vice president for South America.

With this option, on the Impetus version the lower moldings are available in the same body color.
To provide more comfort and convenience, the package also adds electrically adjustable driver’s seats to the Limited version. To enhance safety, customers can also add blind spot monitoring, a technology that not only emits an audible and visual warning in the rearview mirror, but also prevents rear-end collisions by identifying obstacles while reversing, to both versions, as well as Connect////Me, the brand’s connected vehicle services platform that provides functionality and enhances the driving experience.
