As promised in earlier threads, the 1.3 90bhp multijet is on it's way as a more powerful option for the new Punto (along with the current 70bhp unit) and as an entry (I suspect) to the Stilo range. I doubt the Panda will get it though...
Anyway, it's first application is in the Vauxhall Astra (General Motors, Vauxhall's parent company, buy Fiat/ Alfa diesels in a deal that harks back to the recently termintated collaboration work) and I enclose a link to a test undertaken by MSN. Doesn't obviously give an indication of a Fiat car, but does give an indication of how the engine performs in an Astra which weighs roughly the same as a Stilo. The Punto will be quicker because of it's lower weight.
