Fiat Uno (Progetto 327). 2010 to date (prod. n/a). 3- and 5-door sedan. F/F, 999, 1368 cm³ (I4 OHC). Uno name revived for Brazilian entry-level model, running alongside the original Uno-based Mille until its deletion in 2013. Simple, utilitarian design, apeing Fiat concepts of the 1970s and 1980s. Designed to be robust and rugged—how Brazilians came to see the Uno name. Heated windscreen, a novelty for this segment, especially in a budget car. Bluetooth and USB connections. Revised FIRE Evo flex-fuel engines. As with many Brazilian models, a faux SUV model introduced with the rest of the range, called Uno Way. Sporting launched 2011. Facelift to Novo Uno in 2014, losing some of its character, but with greatly improved interior and tech, though dynamically it was falling well behind the competition (particularly its engines), especially as Brazilians demanded more from even entry-level cars. Improved structure for safety.
