BRIEFING
FIAT PUNTO TRAINING OUTLINE
Fiat Auto S.p.A.
After Sales Training
The area around the driver’s seat is, together with the components included in it, the
passenger compartment portion that bears the greatest significance when the customer has to
make a final judgement of the driving comfort that the whole of the vehicle passenger
compartment can offer.
The designing of Nuova Punto has focussed on ergonomics. Optimum balance has been
achieved between the style prerogatives and the customer’s unavoidable needs in terms of
interior comfort, easy access into the vehicle, inner visibility (all controls are easily visible and
within reach) and outer visibility (thanks to the large dimensions of side rear-view mirrors).
Nuova Punto can accommodate occupants of all builds: this has been achieved without
affecting the dimensions of the boot, which features a minimum holding capacity of 263 litres
with the standard running trim.
"Feeling good on board " means having a lot of space available, and such space should be
available just where it is needed for. Nuova Punto features living space volume (cubic volume)
values at the top of its category.
The passenger compartment profile makes it possible to easily accommodate two passengers
on the rear seat of the 3-door vehicle; yet, approval for five-passenger seating can be asked
for (by fitting the third rear safety belt, too).
The vehicle layout setting has been guided by the most advanced, state-of-the-art criteria for
defining the basic ergonomic functions, consistently with the style and safety prerequisites:
Interior space and volume
Interior comfort and room
Easy access into the vehicle
Visibility
Luggage compartment
