Fiat Pulse Mexico

Aug. 27, 2025, Mexico City – Fiat Pulse is a modern SUV with an innovative design approach, aimed at customers seeking versatility, fun and an ideal balance of practicality, safety and efficiency. Designed at Fiat’s Centro Stile in Italy by Peter Fassbender using the “wrapping contours” concept previously pioneered on other models of the brand,

Pulse achieves balanced proportions, elegant details and the sportiness much desired in an SUV. The result of this intense design work is a dynamic, modern and refined sculpture. Modern and functional The front is distinguished by the long, voluminous hood, which expresses presence and robustness. The headlights, which dynamically invade the side, with LED daytime running lights, leave an indelible signature and technological appearance. The three-dimensional grille features various details such as the Italian flag and large FIAT logo. The rear features a fragmented, modern design with a “C” shape that points toward the center of the FIAT logo and supports the sculpted sides of the tailgate.

The fabric or faux leather seats feature exposed stitching in a wrap-around design.

The trunk has a capacity of 370 liters, which can be further expanded by folding down the rear seat. The seatbacks can be lowered 60/40, adapting to the number of passengers on board the Pulse. T

he Pulse’s surprises do not end there. A closer look reveals “hidden secrets” in Easter eggs, such as a map of Italy and Latin America with off-road routes. Efficiency : A 1.3-liter 4-cylinder engine is offered as standard, developing 97 horsepower and 120 Nm of torque, mated to a 5-speed manual or CVT automatic transmission, with different driving modes and capable of delivering a combined fuel consumption of 19.58 km/l. It uses a quiet, “lifetime” timing chain, as it requires no maintenance for the entire life of the vehicle, reducing maintenance costs. Ready for adventure

Fiat Pulse was developed to meet the most stringent criteria of performance, robustness and comfort, which are essential among consumers in the segment. Therefore, Pulse adopts several technologies fully developed for Mexican roads, in terms of suspension, steering, bodywork, sound and vibration isolation.

Ground clearance reaches 22.4 cm, providing safety on uneven surfaces and protecting Pulse’s platform from obstacles. At the rear, the high suspension provides an excellent 31.4° exit angle, preventing damage even on steep ramps.
