(from Fiat Press
Release) Concept Cars Fiat Marrakech
All eyes at the Swiss
show will be on the Fiat Marrakech and Fiat Simba. These two concept
cars, built on the 'Project 169' base, exemplify the versatility of
the new compact car.
The name Marrakech
conjures up a picture of desert dunes and also evokes an idea of
holidays in the widest sense of the word: as an expression of
pleasurable, carefree days where the fun is as much about getting
there as arriving. Its compact shape makes you want to reach out and
hug it. At just 3.57 metres long, 1.61 metres wide and 1.48 metres
high with a wheelbase of 2.30 metres, it would not be difficult to
imagine it threading its way through tiny streets. Its dune-buggy
looks would be just as at home cavorting in the open air or on the
beach of a smart resort on the Côte d'Azure.
This is no mere
coincidence because the Fiat prototype has borrowed certain traits
from the famous dune buggy of the Sixties. from its open body to its
low, windowless doors (easier to climb over than through), tubework
to protect passengers and four drive wheels. The prototype comes
with four wheel drive (4x4 system with viscous coupling) and 16"
wheels with 205/50 tyres.
An all-terrain look that
leaves little room for doubt: the Marrakech is the ideal companion
for extreme fun. Friends are welcome to join in too, because it can
easily accommodate four people.
The Fiat concept car arouses emotions and guarantees driving
satisfaction while giving you the will to live life to the full.
