Hello … hoping I don’t regret this

Hi all, first time fiat owner

Picked up a new tipo cross a few months ago, almost 3000 miles in so far, going ok despite a couple of minor issues which so far the dealer has been good with …

I suppose the thing that worries me the most is that I see NO other tipos on the road, I think I could count on one hand the amount of tipos I’ve passed on the road since getting mine and I’ve only ever seen 1 other tipo cross … does that make my car exclusive ??? Here hoping haha

Anyway … looking forward to finding out more about this car, hopefully more of it good than bad

Hi and welcome

Is the 'Cross' taller than the stanard road car.. or just 'styled' like an off.roader ??

Tipo isnt a massive seller over here..
Only small hatches ever do..

Ive had lots of excellent value mid.size FIATs as theyve always been hard to sell

Is the new tipo a mid sized car now, I considered the old tipo a small sized car, though modern "small" cars are not so small.

Same size as a 3 series volvo.. dont recall Volvo making 'small cars'

I would put it in the mid size car slot, probably smaller of the bunch thought

It does sit a bit higher on the road than standard tipo don’t know if it’s physically much different from the normal tipo than the standard version, perhaps slightly… but I’m coming from an A5 here so certainly feels a lot higher to me
