Fiat is known for its small-sized vehicles, like the iconic Fiat 500 and the Fiat Panda, famously one of ex-Top Gear presenter James May's favourite cars. Take a look at our list of top ten cars like the Fiat 500 here.
However, the brand has also branched out from its small-car origins, and in 2023, a Fiat E-Scudo all-electric van set a world record for the longest distance travelled by a van on a single charge, covering just over 311 miles.
Despite the earliest Fiat 500 being released all the way back in 1957, the latest iterations are still making waves, winning 'Best Small Car' at the 2022 Autocar Awards, with its electric counterpart, the 500e, winning 'Best Electric Small Car' at the 2023 WhatCar? Electric Car Awards.

The
Fiat Bravo is a generously sized hatchback that looks sporty and elegant without an inflated price tag. It was part of
Fiat's lineup until 2014, acting as a rival for the immensely popular, class-dominating
Ford Focus and
Volkswagen Golf. The 2.0-litre diesel engine is gutsy, doing 0-62 mph in just over eight seconds with a top speed of 134 mph.
Fiat isn't known for its reliability, and drivers have reported some issues with the
Bravo's gearbox feeling clunky and the
stiffness of the brake pedal, so keep an eye out for these
common problems.
If you have breakdown cover and your car fails, all you have to do is call the number of your cover provider and give them information about your policy and location. They will attempt to repair the vehicle at the roadside; failing that, they will tow your car to a garage.
Even if you don't have breakdown cover, you can still call a breakdown recovery provider, though this is likely to cost more since you don't have an existing policy.
Instead of trying to purchase regular breakdown cover after you have broken down, make sure you contact your chosen breakdown provider using the non-customer helpline. Read this guide for more information about what to do when your car breaks down.
Alternatively, a local garage will often offer the cheapest breakdown recovery call-out fee. Choosing the right roadside recovery option is essential, especially if your car has broken down somewhere dangerous, such as on the motorway. In this case, you should phone an emergency recovery service. Our tips for avoiding a breakdown may help you avoid this situation in the future.
