Detailed analysis of the Fiat Tipo SW 1.4 GLP 88 kW (120 CV) Lounge · 120 CV (2016-2018)
General description
The 2016 Fiat Tipo Station Wagon is much more than a rational choice; it's a car that speaks directly to the heart of families looking for intelligence and space. With its 120 HP LPG engine and Lounge trim, it represents the perfect symbiosis between economy of use, thanks to its ECO label, and generous equipment, all wrapped in a practical and attractive Italian family design.
Driving experience
Behind the wheel, the 1.4 Turbo 120 hp engine feels energetic and full of life, especially when playing with its six-speed manual gearbox. It offers a willing response from low revs, making driving agile in the city and competent on the highway. The suspension prioritizes ride comfort, effectively absorbing irregularities and conveying a sense of poise and safety. Driving it is a rewarding experience, knowing that every kilometer traveled on LPG is a small victory for your wallet without sacrificing the pleasure of a spirited engine.
Design and aesthetics
Its design is an exercise in functionality with soul. The estate body is not only harmonious and well-proportioned, but it also hides a colossal 550-liter trunk, ready for any adventure. The front has character and the rear is clean and modern. Inside, space is the real luxury, with remarkable roominess for both passengers and cargo. Although the materials are simple, the assembly is correct and the atmosphere is that of an honest car, designed to last and make life on board easier.
Technology and features
The Lounge trim equips the Tipo with the necessary technology for daily life. The Uconnect infotainment system becomes the operations center for connectivity and entertainment, while elements like climate control or cruise control provide essential comfort on trips. However, its greatest technological feat is the efficient and well-integrated LPG system, which grants it the valuable ECO label and drastically reduces the cost per kilometer, an intelligent technology that directly impacts the family economy.
Competition
In a competitive segment, the Tipo SW faced rivals like the SEAT León ST, the Renault Mégane Sport Tourer, or the Ford Focus Sportbreak. While some of its competitors might have offered a more refined interior or more dynamic handling, the Fiat played its master cards: a more affordable purchase price, above-average interior and trunk space, and, above all, the exclusive and economical bi-fuel LPG engine option that none of its direct rivals offered from the factory.
Conclusion
The Fiat Tipo SW 1.4 LPG is the smart buy par excellence, a car that proves you don't need to spend a fortune to have a spacious, attractive, and extraordinarily economical vehicle to run. It's a loyal, practical, and reliable travel companion that brings a smile to your face every time you pass a gas station. It represents the essence of what a family car should be: honesty, functionality, and a touch of Italian passion that makes it special.
