13/09/2008 01:08. Described as a "free space" vehicle, the Fiat Fiorino Qubo has
broken cover ahead of its stage debut at the Paris Motor Show next month. Marketing spin aside, the little Fiat is a
five-passenger MPV aimed at young city-dwellers, with features
geared more toward practicality and activity than comfort and
luxury — think Honda Element or Scion xB. Priced at the
equivalent of $18,200, the Qubo is offered with either a 75 HP
"Multijet" engine or a 73 HP "Petrol Driven" engine, and you can
shift via 5-speed stick or "robotised" 6-speed...which we assume
means it's a slushbox. Look for the Qubo to be launched in France
this month, after which it will invade Poland, Austria and Hungary.
