A Safe Bet

A Safe Bet

Date: 2013-01-17
The new Fiat Punto was designed and built to achieve the highest levels of safety. The model range boasts a large number of safety systems (standard or optional depending on the model) starting from those dedicated to passive safety: two front airbags are standard across the range, two window bags and a driver knee airbag are standard on the Easy and the Lounge models, making the 2012 Punto one of the few cars in its class with a knee airbag, and two front side airbags which are standard on the Lounge and available as an option on the Easy models.

The new Punto is also one of the few cars in its class that can be equipped with adaptive 'cornering' front fog lights that switch on automatically with dipped headlights according to the angle of steering - this feature is not available on the Pop, optional on Easy trim lines, and standard on the Lounge model. And don't forget that the Punto also guarantees constant and reliable road holding thanks to electronic dynamic control systems for braking and steering. ABS and EBD (Electronic Brake force Distribution) are standard across the complete model range while the Lounge benefits from ESP (Electronic Stability Program) and Hill-holder to help with hill-starts.

Enhancing the ownership prospect, 2012 Fiat Punto has 30000 km service intervals and enjoys full after-sales support in South Africa thanks to a comprehensive parts inventory and the back-up of trained technicians at Fiat dealerships countrywide.

In order to provide truly carefree motoring peace-of-mind Fiat Group Automibiles South Africa offers Fiat owners a five-year or 150 000km warranty including paintwork and rust anti-perforation. Fiat also offers a four-year or 60 000km service plan on MultiAir models - 1.4 MultiAir Easy and 1.4 MultiAir Turbo Lounge.

All new Fiat models are covered by the AA Fleetcare roadside assistance for 12 months. For a chance tot est drive the Fiat Punto or any Fiat model, contact CMH Fiat Umhlanga or visit their showroom in Mt Edgecombe and drive away in a Punto.
