Fiat Sedici (06-11) - Review

Review by Simon Harris on
Last Updated: 15 December 2008
It may be called the Sedici (Italian for 16 - in reference to its 4x4 system), but this small Fiat isn't a hardcore all terrain car. True, most models come with four-wheel drive as standard, but it is designed to primarily be a small and practical family car with some off-road ability - ideal for tackling muddy inclines and dusty gravel paths. It's actually a joint project with Suzuki (which builds the virtually identical Sedici in the same factory) and is well put together with a comfortable and neat cabin. It isn't the most striking car to look at, but its small size makes it easy to drive and the 1.9-litre MultiJet diesel offers good economy.

Available with four-wheel drive, plenty of interior space, neatly laid dash, well equipped as standard

Some cheap-feeling plastics inside, early petrol engine is lacklustre on 4WD models
