2001 Fiat Palio ELX - review from Brazil
"Trendy and nice built, but slow"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
There have been some noises in the dash, but they are not serious ones.
General comments?
This new Palio generation is extremely good and reliable. Nice design and an unexpected quality.
The car has some difficult to get to the 100km/h, and since it is a 16V engine, the accelerations are somehow slow, but in general, is it a superb urban car.
