Fiat Chrysler Automobiles "FCA" Egypt is participating in the 2018 Automech Formula Motor Show, from the 26th to the 30th of September, 2018 at Egypt International Exhibition Center - EIEC, where FCA will exhibit some of its main models that are sold in the Egyptian market; representing Fiat, Alfa Romeo, and Jeep, in addition to Mopar, which is the Company’s original parts and accessories brand.

FCA’s participation in Automech Formula through a 682 sq.m. area, designed to showcase the strong presence of some highlighted models presented in the market, The display platform has 4 sections, one for each of its brands, namely: Fiat section; showing Fiat Tipo family, the Company’s winning horse, including Tipo 4-door manual, Tipo 4-door automatic, and for the first time in Egypt, the Tipo hatchback automatic, which is offered in 2 categories, baseline and highline, at competitive prices.  Also, this section will include the iconic Fiat 500 family, including Fiat 500C and Fiat 500X.

The Fiat TiPo

This all-new, four-door car embodies the "Born to be Sedan" concept which enhances the balanced, quintessentially Italian design to guarantee personality and style without forgoing functionality.  The result is a functional car which maximizes value for money – this being a crucial concept in the Fiat functional family – packed with what customers genuinely appreciates, with a simple range and a transparent commercial offer.

Clearly, FCA is assigning a primary role to this model characterized by excellent interior livability and load capacity, a comprehensive range and a distinctive style to consolidate its presence across the region.

In the true Fiat style, the new Tipo is packed with a plenty of clever solutions that make life better for everyone on-board. Like the splendid standard features and the availability of the Uconnect TM system with a 5" color touch screen, hands-free Bluetooth system, audio streaming, text reader and voice recognition, AUX and USB ports with iPod integration, controls on the steering wheel and, on demand: a rear parking camera and the new TomTom 3D Touch navigation system.

The models available in the Egyptian market are: Tipo 4-door manual, Tipo 4-door automatic and Tipo hatchback automatic (baseline and highline).

The Fiat 500C

It represents the ultimate flagship for the Fiat brand.  A genuine expression of style and character, the Fiat 500C is an all-Italian invention created to satisfy everyone who loves to have fun and go anywhere behind the wheel of an exciting car full of charm. It is always a great player on the international markets; the model was recently revamped with the new style details which enhance the fun-loving pop spirit of the iconic model.

The Fiat 500 has achieved major records in its segment thanks to its Italian design and the most sophisticated technology, as embodied by the revolutionary and multi-award-winning engine. With the over 40 awards it has won internationally to date, the Fiat 500C has proven, since its launch, that it is not merely a super-compact city car, but an authentic platform upon which Fiat is building a whole family of cars with technology and attention to detail worthy of a higher category.

Fiat 500C is launching the Lounge Trim to the Egyptian market.  It is equipped with a 1.4 liter (1400cc), 4 cylinder 16V engine giving 100 horsepower, with an automatic 6-speed transmission.  The main colors will include: red, white, beige, yellow, gray, light blue, green, metallic blue, metallic gray, metallic black, and metallic light blue.

The Fiat 500X

The model is dubbed the big sister in the Fiat 500 family.  The 4-door Fiat 500X is the fruit of a journey during which Fiat designers had to pit themselves against the themes of technological feasibility, brand strategy and the studies that try to predict the type of future relationship we will have with the car; a type of approach that tries to go beyond the form-function relationship to make the user and their necessities the centre of attention.

In effect, looking at the 500X, one becomes aware of how the iconicity, or rather the car's strength and design personality, creates a true matrix of the entire project. The objective is to continue in the process of brand identification that, riding on the Fiat 500's wave of success, has gained wide scale market consensus.

The new model features capabilities for all weather and driving conditions and an economic 140 horsepower 1.4-liter MultiAir2  turbo engine with a six-speed automatic gearbox (DDCT), not to mention many safety and security features, high quality entertainment system, state-of-the-art technology and capabilities ideal for city life.  The main colors will include: red, white, creamy, black, light blue, green, metallic red, metallic grey, and metallic green.
