Panda 100HP arrives in Fiat car dealerships
Motoring enthusiasts have been alerted to news that the sporty new Panda 100HP has gone on sale at Fiat car dealerships across the UK.The top-end 100HP is focussed on performance and boasts a range-topping 1.4-litre 100 bhp 16-valve petrol engine, allied to a six-speed manual transmission.
Meanwhile, the 100HP derivative, like the Alessi and 4x4 models, offers unique trim and equipment specifications.
Assessing the new Fiat car in Auto Trader, motoring journalist Stuart Milne claimed that it can reach a top speed of 115 mph, after accelerating to 60 mph in 9.5 seconds.
Moreover, he also pointed out that the model should stand out from the rest of the Panda range.
"The Panda 100HP has a chunky bodykit, making it instantly recognisable from the rest of the range," he wrote.
"A rear spoiler, chrome exhaust and 15 ins alloys add to the sporting pretensions."
The standard Panda model was first produced in 1980 and the city car is still available today in Fiat car dealerships throughout Britain.
