Fiat officially unveils new Uno

Fiat has officially revealed the new Uno – a supermini due to go on sale in Brazil later this month.

The revival of the Uno name is not as strange as it sounds. The original car may have ceased production in Europe in 1995, but it continued to be a sales success in other parts of the world, especially South America.

The new Uno will be positioned between the Panda and the Grande Punto. At 3.77m long and 1.64m wide the car is understood to be based on a shortened Punto platform, but the styling echoes the boxy chic of its predecessor. An SUV-variant dubbed the 'Way' will also be available, offering chunkier looks and higher ground clearance.
