Fiat Florida 2000 - 2008 Review

The car was offered in Egypt in two trim levels. It came with a 1400cc, four-cylinder engine producing 71 hp and 10.8 kg/m of torque, mated to a 5-speed manual transmission, sending power to the front wheels.

The engine is fuel-efficient and environmentally friendly, especially with the availability of an exhaust catalyst, which reduces toxic gas emissions. The car also performs well, and there are no complaints about its engine performance, power, or smoothness, although some complain about its loud noise.

The car features a simple, harmonious front fascia, a lively, energetic, and youthful front grille, headlights that complement the front fascia components, and a bumper integrated into the lower body of the car in the same color with lower vents and fog lights.

The front of the car appears low and rises as you move backward toward the windshield, giving it a dynamic, streamlined appearance. The rear end features streamlined lines, a low loading edge, well-sized headlights, and a high rear spoiler with a stop lamp.

The design is aided by the car's exterior dimensions, suitable for Egyptian roads: 4.34 meters long, 1.65 meters wide, and 1.42 meters high. These dimensions are well-suited to the spacious interior, which comfortably accommodates five adult passengers, making good use of the space. The cabin includes seats of a good height, ensuring comfortable seating for passengers regardless of the length of the journey. Owners confirm that the interior is spacious and the trunk is roomy. It has large doors with a wide opening angle, making it easy to get in and out of the car. Its seats and cabin are beautifully designed.

The cabin features a distinctive, clear dashboard with various gauges that provide complete information to the driver. There's also a center console with a built-in radio cassette player and air conditioning controls. The main complaint about the car is that the interior materials are not well-finished. The Egyptian sealing on the car is poor, especially on the dashboard, unlike the Yugoslavian or Serbian sealing.

The car is characterized by the cheapness and widespread availability of spare parts, as they are almost identical to the spare parts for the Fiat 128, Fiat 131, and Shahin. They are cheap and widespread, but external spare parts such as lights, bumpers, and mechanical parts are not available. These are similar to the Fiat 128, but the external parts have a different design and different spare parts that are difficult to obtain, which represents a major problem.

Therefore, the lack of external spare parts is a common complaint among car owners, especially since most of them drive their cars without headlights and therefore manufacture the lights themselves at plastic companies. The fenders are also modified at auto tuning shops, rather than installing original or even fake fenders.

The car has a suspension system that ensures the wheels adhere to the road, providing agile performance, especially when maneuvering and overtaking other cars at high speeds. The car's suspension is independent on the front wheels, with anti-roll bars, a torsion bar, a stabilizer bar, and coil springs. The car's semi-independent suspension on the rear wheels includes longitudinal arms and a transverse torsion bar. Therefore, it is a smooth car on the road, and there are no complaints about its stability. It is a strong, durable, and good-performing car that can withstand Egyptian roads and is high off the ground.

The car is characterized by its extreme endurance of heavy duty, despite being a car of average performance and manufacture. There are no complaints about the car's stability, weak suspension, or inability to handle Egyptian roads.

It is a suitable car for the needs of the Egyptian family in terms of performance, price and operating economy. According to its owners, it is a good car that needs some expenses on the interior equipment to be comfortable and give good performance, but general advice is to stay away from it because its price provides the possibility of other cars that are more widespread and easier to resell, because this car was introduced in Egypt for a limited period and is not famous, and therefore its spread is small and its resale price is greatly reduced, and there is difficulty in reselling it, especially because of problems related to its spare parts.

The car comes with powerful brakes, including drums on the front wheels and drums on the rear wheels.

The car has a strong body.

Seats with back support.

Seatbelts.

Phosphating-treated body ensures safety in terms of body insulation and preserves the car's value for a long time.

Produced using the "ALBO" system, which ensures the car's body is protected against rust and corrosion.
