Fiat Mille

The persistence, far away from being a defect, it can be a great quality. It is enough to see the case of Fiat Mille, the old I Unite. There are years he insists in being one of the sold cars of the market, the cheapest, one of the ones that offer the best internal space and, more important than that, one of the most economic. Now, with the kit Way, Fiat wants to show that he can also be stubborn in facing lands of the which few cars would at least dare to arrive close.
Be in the version of three doors or in the one of five, the value of the kit is of R$ 700. With that, the values for the basic car, in the two versions, arise respectively of R$ 21,61 thousand and R$ 23,18 thousand for R$ 22,31 thousand and R$ 23,88 thousand. It is worth to say that those are table prices, difficultly practiced by the market, that comes offering good discounts in the purchase of a new one.
The kit includes soleiras in the doors, painted box of wheels of black, protecting of stop-muds, coating of the central columns and caps with the therefore “Way”, but that perfumery is all only good to give a more beautiful aspect to the car, what gets. In spite of being the people's old acquaintance, Mille with the kit Way he/she gets the attention through where it passes. The functional part of the kit is the increase of the empty space free from the car, 4,4 larger cm, and the adoption of tires 175/70 R13, of the same mark that used them in him Ford EcoSport, Pirelli Cinturato P4. The fact of they be larger it didn't impede that the steppe continued in an of the best positions found to today in national automobiles, inside of the coffer of the motor.
The tires, besides they leave most arranged Mille to face earth highways, also alongaram the marches, since the diameter of the group roda/pneu is larger (57,4 cm of diameter, against 56,1 cm of the original). There are a good aspect and a bad one in that. The positive is that the car needs less turns to maintain the same speed (almost 100 rpm the less), what turns it more economic and less noisy in high speed, maintaining the 120 km/h without esgoelar the motor. The negative already consists of the loss of the traditional agility of the car, always smarter of the market one of the 1-litro. He insists in not wanting to walk in the same way that the normal version, being necessary to force a little more the shortest marches to have a similar result.
Same when demanded, in any way, the excellent motor 1-litro Fire maintained intact its main characteristic, the low consumption of fuel. Few get, for example, to reach the mark of 10 km/l in urban cycle using alcohol. Everything albeit the combination Fire-Mille is a more than happy marriage, allying a motor of good torque in low rotation and of turn easy to a car of just 810 kg, in its version three doors, but to get a consumption of these era something that several fans of the etanol wanted since the first car to alcohol left the production line.
In the evaluation accomplished by WebMotors, they were traveled 460 alone km in the city, in an effort so that the tank if it emptied and it was possible to also evaluate the car with gasoline, but the period of loan of Mille was not enough. The pointer of the gasoline insisted in not going down, of way none. The maximum the one that he/she/it arrived went to the acendimento of the light of reservation of the tank, that indicates there to be still 8 liters of fuel to burn. That, get curled, after 460 km...

I eat it was already said, Mille Way acting is it of a common car 1-litro, not very inferior to the of common Mille. The visibility, especially the back, was recently considered the best of Brazil in a test accomplished by Cesvi Brasil (he/she reads here more on that), what just confirms the impressions of any driver with relationship to the vision quality that the car offers, practically without blind points.
The kit Way offers a more little of mobility in the cities, allowing practically to ignore some hills, valetas and holes, although not everybody. In the earth, don't wait acting of out of highway, but yes some thing comparable to the that Fusca did, facing and winning difficult lands since with the necessary care. It is not surprised if the car wins a light trail, for example.
Another item in that Mille is champion it is in the space use. Among the small cars, he has the largest trunk, just equaled by the New I Palliate in 290 l. It was him, also, the pioneer among the hatches in the disposition of higher banks to compensate the short entreeixos, something presented by Volkswagen as a great solution in Fox.
As nor everything is flowers, the position of driving is not of the best, with an adjustment of distance of the bank that harms tall drivers. If there were a height adjustment or the option of more distance for the bank, that would already be healed. The space in the bank of back it is not also big, but it is honest.
In movement, the steering wheel is shown precise and, in spite of the lack of hydraulic attendance, he is among the lightest of the market for maneuvers. The high suspension and the position of driving don't stimulate any sporting daring, in spite of Mille to behave well in curves. Nor he/she gives to have any pilot ravishment with the car, considering its parca reserves of acting.
Inside, the car is conserved with the same simplicity that always characterized it, but with the possibility of a something the more of equipments, as the air conditioning and the hydraulic direction, two optional that they tend becoming damage, especially if the car be sold in less than three years, minimum period of amortization of a car.
As Mille doesn't have versions that swallow those series equipments, its installation doesn't enter in general in the composition of the price in the tables. That value is composed by the quotation of most of Mille, that is to say, of cars that left factory without both. In the best of the hypotheses, they become just good you differentiate of resale, but, considering that the air conditioning costs R$ 2.990 and that the hydraulic direction nor it is sold as optional, but as accessory, the investment can be loud too much.
With all those persistences, some beneficial, other nor so much, the most annoying of whole is the one of the partial odometer, that whenever he/she separates the car it ponders in disappearing. It is necessary to work it whole to times.

If the persistence of Mille in staying in the market is good or not, who has been opting that he/she is the consumer, and the reasons are evident. As efficient, roomy means of transportation and of low cost, the veteran of Fiat didn't still find competitive to the height. Who insists in buying it he/she has good arguments to do it.
