It was just about the right time that we got the Palio Adventure for a road test. The rolling hills around Pune, covered in vibrant green are inviting and we did not have any hesitation in exploring them in this new offering from Fiat. Surprisingly, not only did the Adventure look the part but tackled all that we could throw at it with great aplomb!

With the launch of the latest generation Palio and the Palio makeover having been afforded to the Siena, it was just a matter of time that the Siena Weekend got the same treatment. After getting the new looks, a new engine, better suited gear ratios and a change of name, from Siena Weekend to Palio Weekend (no doubt in an effort to ride on the success of the Palio), Fiat India Auto went a step further and launched the Palio Adventure, a ‘get noticed’ version of the Weekend.
