Fiat Automóveis is dominating proceedings at the Salão Internacional do Automovel in São Paulo this week with a wide array of innovative vehicles, including a heavily re-worked 300bhp supercharged 'super sportivo' version of the Strada pick-up.

The super-sportive Strada compact pick-up model shows that there are virtually no limits for the creativity of sportiveness lovers. Developed by Fiat’ Centro Stilo, the result is a model with high performance and exclusive looks.

The body has received special painting ― tricolt ― in the color yellow with red pigments, which has been specially developed for this car. It has received 18” diameter wheels, height adjustable suspensions and a kit composed of front aerofoil, side mini-skirts and rear bumpers. The Led headlamps and the rearview mirrors are the same ones used in competitions.

The load compartment door is electric assisted and the step tire has been abolished. To compensate, Strada comes equipped with an electric trio for immediate repair of punctures. The sliding sunroof is electric and, internally, the model received sport-like emphasis on the seats, pedals and steering wheel. The sound system, which belongs to the Fiat accessory line, has the radio with CD player and 8 inch speakers. An onboard navigation system (GPS) developed by Magneti Marelli is installed on the dashboard.

The 1.8 liter engine became equipped with a supercharger and the power turned from the original 114 hp to the unbelievable 300 hp power. The exhaust kit has been changed for another one made of stainless steel with two and a half inches of diameter.
