It was the Launching of the PALIO (Fiat cars) at SHAMAN Automobiles in Bombay. There was a huge crowd of prospective buyers and car lovers, all lining up for a Test Drive. Everybody's faces registered just one emotion..Unbelievable, awesome ! The centre of adulation? The ''PALIO'' by Fiat Cars.
Designed by Giogetto Giugiaro, the Car Designer of the century, PALIO is smashing, classy with elegant Bi-parabola halogen headlights, dashing big-size sporty wheels and a luxurious interior. It comes in 10 great shades...a Solid White and the rest in metallic shades including Black; the ''Tangerine Mist'' is just awesome in keeping with the bold Italien spirit, the ''Fern '' is a delicate yet breathtaking green, one would never have laid eyes on before.... The PALIO is the last word in style, technology and luxury and coupled with its attractive price slotting, it will take the small car market by storm and flood the city roads... The Zens and the Indicas will surely have to take the back seat or beat a fast retreat...No exaggeration this.
It comes with Dynamic Engines, plush and personalised interiors,designer dashboard. And Safety?? Palio also has Models with the SAFETY BAG with load limiters, Fire Prevention System, Lateral Impact Beams and ....child safety lock ! So drive away in Safe Hands of Palio.
