Fiat Linea 1.6 Diesel (2011)

About
The Fiat Linea, even with the 1.3L Multijet engine, is a car that stands out for its timeless Italian design and excellent ride quality. The 1.3L Multijet engine, producing 90 BHP and 209 Nm of torque, provides decent performance for both city and highway driving, though it may feel a bit underpowered compared to some competitors. The car features a variable geometry turbocharger, which enhances low and mid-range performance. It also boasts comfortable leather seats, ample space for passengers, and a spacious 500-liter boot. The handling is impressive, especially on highways, and the car feels stable and safe at high speeds. However, the lack of a 1.6L engine option and historical issues with after-sales service have been significant drawbacks. Despite these, the Linea remains a solid choice for those who value design, comfort, and driving dynamics.

USER OPINION

Our take on this /// Verdict
The Fiat Linea 1.6 Diesel, although discussed in hypothetical terms since it was not actually launched in 2011, would have been a significant upgrade to the existing 1.3L Multijet model. If Fiat had introduced the 1.6L Multijet engine, it would have addressed the power concerns of enthusiasts and potential buyers. The 1.3L Multijet, while adequate for city and highway driving, feels underpowered compared to its competitors. A 1.6L engine would have enhanced performance, making the Linea more competitive in the C-segment. However, the existing 1.3L model still offers a great blend of Italian design, comfortable ride quality, and decent fuel efficiency, making it a viable option for those who prioritize aesthetics and handling over outright power.
Price
The Fiat Linea 1.6 Diesel was never officially launched in India, so there is no specific price data for this variant. However, if we consider the pricing of the 1.3L Multijet Emotion Pack, which was around Rs. 10,06,003 on-road in Mumbai in 2011, a hypothetical 1.6L variant would likely have been priced higher, possibly in the range of Rs. 11-12 lakhs on-road, depending on the additional features and improvements. This pricing would have positioned it competitively against other diesel sedans in the C-segment.
Mileage
Friday, 22 November 2024 01:00 AM The mileage of the Fiat Linea, based on the 1.3L Multijet engine, is quite respectable. It offers around 13 kmpl in city driving and up to 18 kmpl on the highway. While a 1.6L engine might have slightly lower mileage due to increased power, it would still be expected to deliver around 15-17 kmpl on average, making it a reasonable choice for those concerned about running costs.
