Fiat Avventura review, test drive

All told, the Avventura is a great effort. Sure, there are some shortcomings – the driving position is odd, the engine isn’t very tractable by today’s standards and it could do with a bit more equipment. But its fantastic ride quality, chic interiors and tastefully styled exteriors make it rather desirable.

The Avventura is expected to be launched by Diwali. Our sources tell us they are working hard on undercutting the Ford EcoSport in terms of pricing. If they manage, the Avventura could be just the car that helps Fiat regain a foothold in the Indian market. It is the most promising car  from Fiat we’ve seen in a while.
