  1. Does anybody know dimensions of front overhang for Fiat Tipo? Vehicles based on FGA Small Platform has front overhang less than 88 cm long. Front overhang on Fiat Bravo is 97 cm long. I believe that Tipo Hatch will be around 4.25 m long. Google translate: Qualcuno sa dimensioni di sbalzo anteriore per Fiat Tipo? Veicoli basati su Pianale FGA Small ha sbalzo anteriore lungo meno di 88 centimetri. Sbalzo anteriore su Fiat Bravo è lunga 97 cm. Credo che Tipo 2v sarà di circa 4,25 m di lunghezza.

  4. I see that you are avoiding to answer to my questions and statements. I don't know if it's about you technical ignorance or ignorance because of English language. If latter is truth than I ask someone to translate my post. You can't compare CLA to Giulia. One is based on hot hatch and has transverse engine where they can't put V6 while other is in segment above and is RWD. But Mustang has much less power than Mercedes and has 0.3 liters more capacity. Actually that 2.3 liter Mustang has slightly less HP/liter than 2.0 Giulia with 280 HP. If you look at premium D-segment than all of them offer 3.0 liter V6 or I6 engine for more than 300 HP. Only exception is Volvo for S60 where they offer 305 HP (same engine exists as 320 HP for even bigger car) but with supercharger for low revs. Now I will compare power and torque curve of 2.0 Volvo Twincharger, 2.0 Mercedes with single twin-scroll turbo and 3.0 Maserati with bi-turbo. As you can see Mercedes engine is not even close at low rpm to Volvo not to mention Maserati. At 1500 rpm Volvo has 75 HP with 350 Nm, Mercedes has 55 HP with 250 NM while Maserati has 90 or 95 HP with almost 450 Nm. For marque like Alfa that power and torque curve at low rpm like in CLA45 is not acceptable. But as I show it's possible to achieve decent power and torque at low rpm from 2.0 engine but not with single turbocharger. Thus I believe that 2.0 with 350 HP for Giulia will use electric or mechanical supercharger for low rpm.
  5. I doubt about Tremec. It will be ZF but I believe we'll see a Getrag, at least for DCT. Single turbo for 2.0 with 350 HP? I know just one 2.0 gasoline engine with twin-scroll turbo and 350 HP and it's torque at low rpm is disastrous: Someone can accept such a behavoiur of engine on hot hatch but not on premium D segment like Giulia. I also don't believe that FCA's engineers are magicians. 325d has old N47 engine with 218 HP but new B47 with 231 HP is ready and they already offer it in some cars. Audi is proclaiming ~200 kg for its 3.0 TDI. It's impossible that 2.2 JTDm has 100 kg less because it will mean it has around 100 kg. Also Mercedes is going to substitute OM651 with OM654 somewhere in next year.
  6. Excellent point but I will add some technical info. I do not know but I believe that Alfa will use same manual transmission suplier(s) as BMW so in that respect it's impossible to see manual with engine which has more than 450 Nm of torque. But all depends on price, at same price point I'll always choose modern automatic.
  7. It's easy to get how they achieved such a attractive price for Tipo. They choose an unorthodox approach for European car manufacturer. You have three trim levels with no options with each of them, so no individualization. With that they shaved logistical costs. Other important choice is use of naturally aspirated gasoline engines. Much cheaper to build than turbo units and excellent choice for car's price-point for markets without CO2 based taxes.
  8. I think there are three possible choices but only 2 out of 3 completely eliminates turbo lag effect: Twin staged turbocharger Twincharger (turbo + supercharger) which VAG abandoned while Volvo recently presented 2.0 320 HP engine with this technology Electric turbo for low rpm + turbocharger, this is choice for the future and will be ideal choice for Alfa fro marketing standpoint for a brand which pushes many advanced technologies
  9. We already know that FCA has a contract with ZF for 2nd generation of ZF 8HP. Exclusive period between BMW and ZF has expired. ZF 8HP50 will be produced by FCA USA (with some changes to original design) and called 850RE while ZF 8HP75 will be bought directly from ZF. Whe we can expect that version and how they achieved 350 HP without noticeable turbo lag? I see a 30HP difference between 2.2 JTD versions a little be odd. I expected more power from top version.
  10. And still it doesn't have much with 0-100 km/h time where weight is more important.
  11. I made some comparison between Bravo and Tipo with similar motorization. Bravo 1.4 16v 90 HP - 12.5 s - 179 km/h Tipo 1.4 16v 95 HP - 11.5 - 185 km/h Bravo 1.6 JTD 90 HP - 13.1 s - 173 km/h Bravo 1.6 JTD 105 HP - 11.3 s - 187 km/h Tipo 1.3 JTD 95 HP - 11.7 s - 183 km/h Bravo 1.6 JTD 120 HP - 10.5 s - 195 km/h Tipo 1.6 JTD 120 HP - 9.7 s - 199 km/h For me this is a great success that a car that is 20 cm long and must comply with newer ecological norms has better performance. Process of weight loss was successful.
  12. From autocar.co.uk : 2016 Fiat Tipo 1.6 110 Multijet II review Early first drive of Fiat's forthcoming Tipo reveals dynamics that fall short of the class best, although quality and comfort impress What is it?: You’re looking at the new Fiat Tipo, or thereabouts, the car with which Fiat is set to make a return to the mass market C-segment – and in a big way. The car you see here, a functional, compact three-box saloon, forms the basis of a new three-car family that Fiat has created for Europe, the Middle East and Africa. First to be released is this saloon, badged Aegea in the Turkish market in which it’s built. For the UK and mainland Europe, however, Fiat is reviving the Tipo nameplate (from the late 1980s and early 1990s) and has set up additional five-door hatch and wagon versions to be sold alongside the four-door. While the Aegea/Tipo saloon is out now, the coming hatch and wagon editions are set to appear at the Geneva show next spring, ahead of an on-sale date in the UK next September. At a private showing at Fiat’s Design Centre in Turin, we’ve seen all three versions of the new Aegea/Tipo series. While the hatch and wagon remain officially under wraps, the Aegea saloon is now ‘live’ (it was actually unveiled at the Istanbul Motor Show back in May). We’ve also had a spell behind the wheel. Designed around the brief ‘Skills not Frills’ and claiming to provide class-topping roominess, boot capacity and value for money, Fiat’s newcomer is based on the same platform as that used by the Jeep Renegade. Up front, there’s an orthodox mix of 1.4-litre (94bhp) and 1.6-litre (108bhp) petrol Fiat group engines, along with 1.3-litre (94bhp) and 1.6-litre (118bhp) Multijet II diesels. Expect the coming Tipo hatch to be Focus-sized (although a touch narrower), while this Aegea saloon, with more than 500 litres of boot capacity, stands a lengthier 4.54 metres from stem to stern. The Tipo wagon is just a fraction longer. At a time when Fiat is dividing up and reassessing its model range as either ‘aspirational’ (500, 124 Spider) or ‘functional’ (Panda and Doblo), there’s no doubt into which camp this new Aegea/Tipo falls. What's it like?: The first thing worth noting is that in appearance, for a supposedly bread and butter model, the Aegea is surprisingly upscale. The front end, dominated by the attractive full-width grille, narrow headlights and sculptured bonnet, packs the kind of premium look that was never seen on previous Fiats in this class. Much the same can be said for the elegant tail end, with its sloping rear glass, and sculptured roofline. The Aegea was designed in Italy first and foremost as a saloon; it’s not a converted hatch with boot tacked on. If the sides and, in particular, the rear door and glass area, with Hofmeister kink, carry echoes of BMWs past, buyers out there probably won’t complain too much. Through the streets of Turin, along the autostrada and up through the hills of Asti, the Aegea proved to be a solid if unremarkable car to drive. That’s with the top 1.6 turbodiesel on board and standard six-speed manual gearbox (automatic and dual-clutch automatic options are also available). True, there was good pace from the gutsy 1.6 engine, but the lack of steering sharpness through turns was a surprise. So too was the amount of road noise, especially from the back of the car. The gearchange was also mediocre. Maybe the 1.4 petrol (which we didn’t try) would do better, being lighter on its feet and traditionally quieter. Comfort, though, was good, but even if the Aegea is a fundamentally well-balanced car, on this showing at least, its dynamics aren’t going to have the Volkswagen Golf, Vauxhall Astra or Ford Focus running for cover. But Fiat has not set out to build a driver’s car. Instead the formula here is based around rationality, roominess, content, running costs and (an expectedly) competitive transaction price. The cabin is comfortable, the dashboard looks and feels good, the instruments are clear and interior and boot space are above average. There will also be two infotainment levels. How much of this will carry over to the forthcoming Tipo hatch? Only Fiat insiders know for sure at this time. But with the hatch expected to command the bulk of sales (54%, compared to 28% for the saloon and 18% for the wagon), it’s a formula Fiat creatives clearly have to get right. Should I buy one?: You can’t, or at least you can’t yet. The new Tipo hatch and wagon are still the best part of a year away, and Fiat UK is still deciding whether to take this three-box saloon, which delves into a part of the market that’s had very little traction in the UK of late. So an opportunity, perhaps? Our first time out with the Fiat Aegea/Tipo in Turin has revealed that style and comfort are good. It’s maybe not the most refined car out there, but it still has the makings of a decent all-around proposition as a straightforward family car.
