Italian pricing for the facelifted Fiat Croma have been announced with prices starting at 23,500 euros for the 1.8 MPI engine and running up to 33,500 euros for the highest specified 2.4 Multijet.

Italian pricing for the facelifted Fiat Croma have been announced with the range's pricing starting at 23,500 euros for the 1.8 MPI engined version and running up to 33,500 euros for the highest specified 2.4 Multijet.

With its bold new 'family' look, and in particular the Bravo-inspired front end which is designed to provide more substance, Fiat continues to develop the Croma's 'comfort wagon' theme. Introduced two years ago Fiat is now ambitiously targeting 50,000 unit sales a year for the refreshed model. The Croma is already one of the roomiest vehicles in its class: 478 centimetres long, 177 wide, 160 tall, and with a wheelbase of 270 cm, these are measurements that translate into an impressive amount of interior space.

Now the Nuova Croma arrives in the Italian showrooms and its domestic pricing just been announced. The Italian range comprises of just one petrol engine option (the 2.2-litre is still available outside of Italy to order) and so the 1.8 MPI powers the range's 'entry level' model. The 140CV 1.8-litre MPI 16v engine (175 g/km CO2) is priced at 23,500 euros in 'Active' trim and 25,000 euros in 'Dynamic' specification (all prices include taxes).

Three diesel engines make up the oil burning range, which account for the majority of sales: 1.9 8v, 1.9 16v and 2.4 20v. The 120CV 1.9 Multijet 8v opens the diesel pricing, and is also the most 'environmentally friendly' power unit in the range with CO2 emission of 160 g/km. With this unit in situ the Croma is priced at 25,000 euros (Active), 26,500 euros (Dynamic) and 27,500 euros (Emotion). The 150CV 1.9 Multijet 16v (which also offers CO2 emissions of 160 g/km) is priced at 28,000 euros (Dynamic), 29,000 euros (Emotion) and 30,500 euros (Must). The same car with the automatic transmission option (187 g/km CO2) is priced at 29,500 euros (Dynamic), 30,500 euros (Emotion) and 32,000 euros (Must).

The final model in the Nuova Croma range is the entry-topping 200CV 2.4-litre Multijet 20v (212 g/km CO2) which comes only with automatic transmission. Two specifications are available, firstly Emotion (32,000 euros) and finally the highest priced, Must (33,500 euros).
