Bookings open for Fiat Urban Cross ahead of launch

Showcased at the 2016 Auto Expo, Fiat Urban Cross is headed for production. To be launched later this month, Fiat Urban Cross has now been featured on the Fiat India website with the tagline – ‘Crafted to be seen’.

This new campaign for upcoming Urban Cross is in continuation with the company’s brand philosophy – ‘Crafted for Car lovers‘, which was launched earlier last year. Bookings for new Fiat Urban Cross are being accepted at INR 20,000.

New Fiat Urban Cross is based on the Avventura but is offered with a bit more luxury and a lot more power. Powered by a 1.4 liter TJet four cylinder petrol engine which generates 140 PS max power at 5,500 rpm and a peak torque of 210 Nm in between 2,000 – 4,000 rpm. It is also available with 1.3 liter diesel 93 PS engine. Transmission is taken care by a five-speed manual transmission which powers the front wheels.

In addition to a more powerful engine, Fiat Urban Cross comes with a new exterior colour scheme, new grille, LED headlights, silver skid plates in the front and rear, roof rails, LED taillights, stylish new 16 inch alloys, silver cladding around the lower part of the car’s body, floating roof spoiler, body coloured door handles, and Avventura badge on the side.

On the inside, it gets new dual tone dashboard in black and red (but this is more of a personalization option, as the one shared on FB has all black interior). The layout of the dashboard remains same, and so does the equipment list. The red leather upholstery is stitched in contrast white thread, new gear knob, plush seats, etc form the interior features. Expect the price of Fiat Urban Cross to be in the range of INR 12 lakh upon launch.
