2013 Fiat Punto Sport Launched :: TheMech.in

The Punto Sport, priced at Rs 7.6 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi), gets a host of cosmetic updates

Fiat has launched the 2013 Punto Sport. The new model comes with cosmetic updates only and no mechanical changes.

The Punto Sport comes with a roof spoiler, branded door sills, branded floor mats with red stitching, sport pedals with aluminium inserts and a chrome exhaust tip. The car gets sport decals on the exterior and is only available in two paint jobs, white and red, while the roof is painted black to add to the sporty character. The wing mirrors are painted in contrast to the paint, hence the red car gets white mirrors and the white comes with red mirrors!

The Punto Sport already has features like dual front airbags, fire prevention system (FPS), Fiat’s Blue & Me technology, climate control, ABS, immobilizer with rolling security code and speed-sensitive volume control.

The hot hatch is powered by the same 1.3-litre MultiJet diesel engine which makes a healthy 93PS. Fiat has priced the 2013 Punto Sport at Rs 7.6 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi), which means it’s in direct competition with premium hatches like the Hyundai i20 and the Volkswagen Polo GT TSI.
