Fiat FCC Adventure : Off-Road Coupe based on the Stilo unveiled at the Sao Paolo Car Show

Fiat took the wraps off a brand new concept dubbed FCC Adventure at the Sao Paolo Car Show yesterday. FCC, which stands for Fiat Concept Car is a study developed entirely by Fiat Automoveis (Fiat's South American department) and built in Brasil.


Based on the C-segment hatch Stilo, the FCC Adventure is a crossover vehicle combining elements from coupe's & SUV's. Under its dynamic body which notably brings to mind cars from the famous Dakar Rally, the FCC Adventure is equipped with a Stilo Abarth derived, 5cylinder 20V 2,4 litre engine with an output of 167 Hp. Other notable features of the front wheel drive FCC Adventure is it's front differential and the multi-link rear suspension.

Seeing this concept, it makes you wonder why Fiat didn't go ahead and build something like this for the European market instead of the utterly boring, Suzuki SX4 based, Sedici.
