Fiat Grande Punto

Overall Average Rating - 82.85%
Position in the Top 100 cars - 87th

Grande Punto drivers have reported pleasingly low running costs and impressive braking, but there are few other perks with ownership.

A disappointing 78th position for handling and 86th for performance are poor for a car sold on its sporty image; 96th place for build quality is also a letdown, so the firm needs to boost standards.

Manufacturer Verdict (Position - 30th)

As Alfa falls, owner Fiat has jumped six places in the manufacturer chart. Although the 500 debuted in a disappointing 86th in the Top 100, it has still helped to lift the Italians’ overall average.
