The Qubo could do with the 1.4 Multiar petrol 120, instead it gets the underpowered NA 100. The Doblo also needs a more powerful petrol but doesn't get it.
Qubo gets a 77bhp 1.4 8v Petrol i think. They saved the 95bhp 16v throbber for the Doblo - it must go like stink
To me the Qubo should have the 16v 1.4 from the Doblo, plus the 95bhp Multijet, whilst the Doblo should get the 105 Multiair with the current two diesels. A good double-ad campaign (like Meriva/Zarifa) plus a keener warranty would get the sales up to a reasonable level i think.
To me, the Panda and 500 are fine. TwinAir is too new to comment on as economy may improve as the engines get miles on them. The Panda update seems quite committed for Fiat - i was expecting them to go down to a 1 model Panda range, but instead we've got three, including updated engines (not sure the DPF diesel is a good idea tho) and a couple of new colours, plus different spec levels.
They have altered the Evo range now, to include the 1.6 diesel Sporting, an Eco diesel in Dynamic trim, plus a 1.2 for penny pinchers (God knows why else you'd want it in an Evo), plus dropped the Eleganza, which keeps things abit more simple. These measures might do the trick, but comments on here suggest the Grande has upset too many people with stupid faults & now the Evo isn't proving the quality product it ought to be. The factory it's made in sounds like a farce - cars with fog lights being fitted with non-foglight switch banks, boots not aligned and leaking, cubby holes falling off. There's no excuse for that other than pi*s poor management.
The Bravo is flawed, but so are many cars, and they still sell. My example of the Citroen Xzara proved this. It sold well, not because it was especially good, but because Citroen let everyone know it existed & offered good deals on it. Fiat simply don't promote the Bravo.
It'd only take a few changes to get sales up by quite a decent amount, but for some reason Fiat don't seem to wanna take the risk of that investment.
