The name - Tipo is a celebrated designation that FIAT has used many times during it’s over one century of history. The Tipo is one of the models to carry the coveted name of which nearly two million were produced from 1988 to 1995 and which was first awarded "Car of the Year” in 1989.

“We are thrilled about this development as Nigerians can now enjoy real value for their money. The FIAT Tipo fits perfectly in its segment and will be officially presented before the month ends. The Tipo offers high appeal as it comes with a vast variety of standard options. Its Italian heritage promises comfort, quality and versatility. With the FIAT Tipo, you do not need much to get a lot. Thus, it serves as a wonderful option for Nigerians even as we have already put in place, an excellent maintenance culture offered by our aftersales team” – Stavros Diamantidis, General Manager, FCA group, Weststar Associates Limited.

The four-door sedan version of the FIAT Tipo is one of the first models which will be exclusively available at Weststar Associates Limited, Authorized General Distributors of Mercedes-Benz, Jeep, Dodge, Ram, FIAT and FIAT professional in Nigeria.

This is a welcome development. This Italian brand will give a strong push to all these Korean and Asian brands that have been exploiting us. Giving a good quality and fair price, they will make it in Nigeria

I was going to assume the same until I checked it out on Google.
There is a new model launched in 2015, bearing no resemblance to the old boxy model.
Just like better known models of more popular marques, such as 'Corolla', 'Accord' and 'Jetta', the Tipo model has also reemerged in a different generation.
Cheers!

Seems investors who have left Nigeria are finally returning due to the forecast economic growth of the country.

For sure Dunlop and co will soon return.

Na wa oo.

So investors want to come back despite recessed economy?

What is Buhari doing right sef?

Na wa oo.

This Nigeria is still making progress, despite all the negatives people say and wish for the country

Who said FIAT manufactures Ferrari and Maseratti.

The holding company is not even called FIAT - Its Fiat Chrysler Automobiles. And for your information as at 2016, Ferrari operates on its own.

Yes Ferrari, was acquired 50% and later 90% by FCA. But its only a holding company. FIAT is a just another car brand manufactured by FCA.
