Fiat Tipo replacement will be based on the EMP2 platform
- While the Fiat Panda will be replaced in the coming months by a sedan which will remind the design of the Centoventi concept (2019) and which will move from segment A to segment B, therefore succeeding both to the Panda and the Punto, the Fiat Tipo will be replaced by a C-segment sedan but this time based on the EMP2 platform. Indeed, the replacement of Panda and Punto was studied before the merger between PSA and FCA, while the replacement of Tipo had only been at the beginning of the project.
- After the merger in January 2021 and the creation of the Stellantis group, we saw the appearance of the new generation of the Peugeot 308 and the new generation of the Opel Astra based on the EMP2 platform, which will appear next fall. There is therefore no longer any doubt that Fiat will replace its Tipo with a model similar to these two sedans Peugeot 308 and Opel Astra, probably in 2023.
- The future Fiat Tipo will be the brand's first car to adopt ex-PSA platform and engines, but certainly not the last. Indeed, new Fiat on the CMP platform (segment A and B) could be developed and launched before 2025.
- The Fiat range is being completely rebuilt, this having been one of the motivations for the merger of PSA and FCA , because FCA suffered from having an old and restricted range. The plans for new generations of Alfa-Romeo Giulietta and Lancia Delta are still pending, but nothing would prevent the Stellantis group from launching (at a lower cost) these sedans on the EMP2 platform in a more or less near future.
