will the real fiat multipla please stand up

Hours after I longed for a return of the Fiat Multipla, Fiat delivered. The 500L Living will be a true MPV, carrying seven. The last Multipla only carried six. It will be a bit longer than our 500L and have the option of a 0.9L TwinAir engine, two diesels or a naturally aspirated 1.4L gasoline engine making 95 horsepower. I’ll pass. It’s not ugly enough to stoke my boiler. But it’s not coming to North America anyways.

What a cool looking thing. Fiat, listen, all 10 of us wagon owners with 3 pedals would love to have this type of thing. Stick an auto in it for the masses, but make it a special order option for a stick and price it like a CX5, and in 2 yrs, I'll be in line. I'll even do Euro delivery, as there wouldn't be a better excuse for an Italian vacation. But please call MB and see if you can get a hold of their 2.1L Diesel they're sticking in the GLK. I've heard that it's a beast and gets schwing inducing mileage. The Mini Countryman was a good idea, but the design isn't nearly as appealing as what you folks at Fiat made with this. Giddy up!

  I don't really think Fiat needs any help from Mercedes as to diesels.

  @Marcelo de Vasconcellos Considering Fiat invented the common rail, I would think Merc when to Fiat for that 2.1 ;-)

MaintenanceCosts Poorly packaged, oddly proportioned small CUV with an unrefined hybrid powertrain and a luxury-market price? Who wouldn't want it?
MaintenanceCosts Who knows whether it rides or handles acceptably or whether it chews up a set of tires in 5000 miles, but we definitely know it has a "mature stance."Sounds like JUST the kind of previous owner you'd want…
28-Cars-Later Nissan will be very fortunate to not be in the Japanese equivalent of Chapter 11 reorganization over the next 36 months, "getting rolling" is a luxury (also, I see what you did there).
MaintenanceCosts RAM! RAM! RAM! ...... the child in the crosswalk that you can't see over the hood of this factory-lifted beast.
3-On-The-Tree Yes all the Older Land Cruiser’s and samurai’s have gone up here as well. I’ve taken both vehicle ps on some pretty rough roads exploring old mine shafts etc. I bought mine right before I deployed back in 08 and got it for $4000 and also bought another that is non running for parts, got a complete engine, drive train. The mice love it unfortunately.
