The Fiat Bravo is a new tiny family coupe of Fiat. This small family car was unveiled at the Geneva Motor Show in 2007. The car was planned by the Fiat style centre. The Austrian automotive company Magna Steyr was called for in masterminding most of the car’s body and adjustments.

The inspiration behind setting up this car is not to bring forth huge sales numbers but it is done so to create a sturdy brand image with a eminent quality of a world class product.

The Bravo is a lavish hatchback, with insides that well match any other makes. The price is expected to be between Rs. 18 and 25 lakh.
