For Along with strong diesel engines and decent refinement, the Bravo brings some flair to its class. It looks stylish, too, and is cheap to buy and run.
Against The ride and handling disappoint, build quality is below par and rear vision is poor. To cap it all, depreciation is likely to be heavy.
What Car? says
Refined and cheap, but otherwise an average car in a class where excellence is the norm - nowhere near as good to drive as the class leaders.
There are 17 Fiat Bravo editions available
Buyer's notes
Target Price team says:
There's a wide range of engines and trims to choose from in the Bravo range, but you don't need to spend much to get all the best bits of the Bravo.
Our favourite model is the 1.4 Active - it's not quite the cheapest model in the range, but it is the cheapest to come with standard air conditioning.
The diesels are smooth and responsive, and may make some sense for higher-mileage drivers. And, no matter which model you're looking at, you have the reassurance of a five-star crash-test rating from Euro NCAP.
