The Fiat FCC Adventure concept car, a vehicle developed by the Fiat Styling Centre in Brazil, which proposes the innovative concept of a two-seater ‘sports off-roader’, will make its European debut at the Bologna Motor Show next week.

The Fiat FCC Adventure, which received its world première at the São Paulo Motor Show in Brazil in October, combines the proportions of a sports car with the main features of an off-road vehicle (increased height and large approach and departure angles). The front has two distinctive mouldings on the bonnet, headlights that convey its strong personality and a front steel bar that is built into the bumper. The sides are emphasised by fluid lines more typical of a coupé, while the other stylistic elements underline the impression of an agile, dynamic car: from the short bonnet and boot to the high headlights, pronounced wheelarches and exclusive 18” wheels. Two other styling elements are the side mouldings that create different planes and a luminous ‘chiaroscuro’ effect that is typically Italian; the rooftop bars also have an aerodynamic effect.

Meanwhile at the ear of the FCC Adventure the boot lid is positioned very high up, with light clusters at either side, and the well defined, strong bumpers complete the sturdy look of the car.
 

Its sporty aspirations are also underlined by the central exhaust terminals and the spoiler, which incorporates the brake light. And to respect the Adventure concept in full, the spare tyre is positioned on the upper part of the tailgate.

Inside, the furnishings are all black, silver and orange; the steering wheel is upholstered in leather (decorated with original orange and silver applications), and the enveloping seats are fitted with orange five-point seat-belts with black details. The Adventure Concept Car has been equipped with a compass and inclinometer on the central console, and to ensure outstanding efficiency it is powered by the 167 bhp 2.4 20v petrol engine, with front-wheel drive, a self-locking differential, independent suspension on the front wheels, multilink suspension at the rear with adjustable shock absorbers and 285/60 R18 P Zero tyres on 18 x 9.5” wheels. The body is painted with metallic Tricoat orange paint, a paint that produces a special iridescent effect, changing from yellow to intense red with the light.
