Fiat’s slow-selling Bravo compact model has received a new version, called “MyLife” that comes with some minor styling updates, additional standard features and more competitive prices. On the outside, the Bravo MyLife sports a glossy black finish for the upper and lower grilles, B-pillars and fog light framings, plus new 16-inch two-tone wheels and chromed door handles and grille borders. The Golf-sized hatchback is available in two colors, Distinct Grey and Superb Red.
Inside, most changes concern the new standard equipment such as Fiat’s Blue&Me infotainment system with Instant Nav satellite navigation system, which also integrates a Bluetooth phone connection with SMS voice reading function and a USB port for connecting external music devices. The navigation system has a 6.5-inch display and is offered with a map containing all European countries. All functions of the infotainment system can be controlled by voice or through buttons on the steering-wheel.
Other standard features include manual air conditioning, 6 airbags, ESP with Hill Holder function, fog lights with cornering function, leather covered steering-wheel and gearshift lever, plus electric windows.
As part of Fiat’s new strategy “Prezzo Vero Fiat” (Italian for “Fiat True Price”), the company offers the Bravo MyLife in Italy with a starting price of €14,900 ($21,450), corresponding to the 90HP 1.4-liter petrol engined version. Combined with another special offer called Power Plus, the Bravo MyLife’s 120HP 1.6-liter diesel version is offered at €17,600 ($25,340), which is the same price of the 105HP 1.6-liter Multijet model.
Other engines available for the Bravo MyLife include the 1.4-liter T-Jet with 120 horsepower and the 1.4-liter Multiair Turbo with 140 horsepower and standard Start&Stop system. Orders start today in Italy.
