Our Verdict

Expert opinion and recommendation

The Fiat Petra Diesel (2007) is a underrated gem in the Indian mid-size sedan segment. Despite its discontinuation, it offers a compelling package for those looking for a reliable and powerful diesel engine. The cars performance is notable, especially once it reaches its optimum running temperature, providing smooth and efficient driving experience. The suspension, equipped with telescopic dual effect shock absorbers, handles Indian roads admirably, and the ground clearance is among the highest in its segment. However, the cars maintenance and parts availability have been concerns, although these issues have improved since Tata Motors took over the service. Overall, its a solid choice for those who value performance, comfort, and a unique presence on the road.

Recent news and announcements

Owners of the Fiat Petra Diesel have often praised the cars build quality and durability, even comparing it favorably to modern cars. However, finding knowledgeable mechanics for this model has become increasingly challenging, making maintenance a significant concern.

The Fiat Petra Diesels interior was lauded for its premium upholstery and features, but the overall package was not enough to sway buyers away from other options in the market. The cars European design and safety standards were positives, but they were overshadowed by the engines performance.
October 2, 2020
By 2007, the Fiat Petra Diesel had been discontinued due to low sales. The companys inability to provide a more powerful diesel engine and adequate marketing support contributed to its failure. I think if Fiat had addressed these issues, the Petra could have been a more successful model.

Despite its European sophistication in terms of interior design and features like power windows and powerful air-conditioning, the Fiat Petra Diesel failed to gain significant traction in the Indian market. The cars safety features, including an ECE crash standard-tested cabin, were a plus but not enough to boost sales.
November 20, 2004
The driving experience of the Fiat Petra Diesel was marred by its underpowered engine, which made it less enjoyable to drive, especially on Indian roads. However, the cars suspension and ground clearance of 170 mm helped in navigating rough terrain. I believe better engine tuning could have made this car a more compelling choice.
