Re: new MX-5

I don't understand Fiat at all. Right now it seems they make most profit from the Fiat 500 but how long will that work? They should have revived the Uno and the Ritmo but apparently they don't care. I have no other explanation. Also, Fiat may be the only mass manufacturer without a decent Crossover SUV. Stupid...stupid...stupid.

Re: new MX-5

They are reviving the Ritmo segment with a new hatchback which will be called the Tipo using the name of their last succesful hatchback which replaced the Ritmo in 1988. The new Tipo will be built in their factory in Turkey and be based upon the Aegea saloon which is built and sold in Turkey.

This is a rendering and it looks like they are playing it very safe (too safe you could argue) in a very crowded sector of the market where it is difficult to make a profit.

I wish they'd revive some of their previous hit models as there have been some great renders of what updated versions could look like. These break away from the current design malaise where every small and medium car looks the same and you wouldn't know if they were a Kia, Ford, Toyota etc were it not for the badge.
