Following its presentation at the Frankfurt motor show last year, Fiat has published new photos and a video of its subtly tweaked Punto supermini as sales begin across Europe.
Perhaps the most important update for 2012 concerns the addition of the 85HP 0.8-liter two-cylinder TwinAir turbocharged gasoline engine. In addition, Fiat’s engineers have added two new technologies to the 85HP 1.3-liter MultiJet 2 diesel engine, the Intelligent Alternator and Intelligent Flow, both of which help lower CO2 emissions to 90g/km.
The 2012 Punto is distinguished by its body-colored bumpers, the new indicators positioned alongside the air intake, different alloy wheel designs and three new metallic colors including Glam Rock Blue, Tip Tap Red and Blues Grey.
Additionally, the TwinAir versions get a new trim level that sports an exclusive “Energetico Green” color and an optional glossy black roof. As for the interior, there are only some minor updates such as the new colors and materials on the seats.
