What engine does the Fiat Viaggio use?
2 Answers
The Fiat Viaggio is equipped with two engines: a low-power version of the 1.4-liter turbocharged engine and a high-power version of the 1.4-liter turbocharged engine. The low-power 1.4-liter turbocharged engine has a maximum power output of 88 kW and a maximum torque of 206 Nm, while the high-power 1.4-liter turbocharged engine delivers a maximum power of 110 kW and a maximum torque of 230 Nm. The Fiat Viaggio's body dimensions are 4679 mm in length, 1850 mm in width, and 1471 mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2708 mm. The vehicle features front-wheel drive, with a front suspension type of MacPherson independent suspension and a rear suspension type of torsion beam non-independent suspension.
I have conducted in-depth research on the Fiat Viaggio's powertrain, which primarily features a 1.4-liter turbocharged engine, specifically the T-Jet or MultiAir technology variants. Depending on the model, this engine offers two tuning options in the Viaggio: 120 horsepower and 150 horsepower. Having test-driven it, I found it quite agile in city driving, with timely turbo engagement during acceleration and decent noise control. Compared to naturally aspirated engines, it offers better fuel efficiency, with a combined fuel consumption of around 7-8 liters per 100 kilometers. However, fuel consumption tends to be slightly higher during highway driving, and turbo lag is somewhat noticeable during cold starts. For maintenance, it's recommended to check the engine oil and air filter every 5,000 kilometers, as the Viaggio's engine is relatively delicate and prone to carbon buildup. Regular maintenance can help avoid costly repairs later on. Compared to the engine in the Nissan Sylphy, its counterpart in the same class, the Viaggio offers a stronger sense of control but slightly weaker stability, making it a choice that prioritizes driving pleasure.
