Fiat made a last try to revive the sales of the Stilo lineup in Europe after the facelifted version introduced in 2003, and gave the car a last refresh for the 2006 model year.
Between 2001 and the facelifted version of the Stilo lineup, Fiat sold about 350,000 units of this model in all three forms: three- and five-door hatchback and station wagon. That was well below expectations, and the automaker tried a last push for the lineup for the 2006 model year, slightly improving the car’s trim levels. In addition, Fiat had to upgrade the engines’ lineup to comply with the Euro4 emission standards, which became mandatory starting in January of that year. While some of the powerplants were already compatible, others were not and needed an upgrade. Furthermore, the safety package for the entire lineup was consistent to make its customers feel safe. The station wagon, called the Stilo Multi Wagon, was also updated.
At the front, the automaker installed different grilles depending on the vehicle’s grade. The lower versions had a black slatted one, while the top-spec Stilo Multi Wagon boasted a silver slat in the middle. Regardless of the version, all were fitted with clear-lenses headlights, which were available with Xenon lighting and corner-mounted turn signals. The lower bumper had two horizontal slats stretched from side to side, while underneath the apron, Fiat added a lip spoiler.
From its profile, the 2006 Fiat Stilo Multi Wagon had the same clear-lenses turn signal lamps on the front fenders. Then, depending on the vehicle’s grade, it boasted body-colored door handles and mirror caps, plus same-shade rubber protections on the door panels. At the same time, the lower two grades were fitted with black plastic moldings. Fiat also included a new range of 15- or 16-inch light alloy wheels for the vehicle. Out back, the car manufacturer created a new tailgate that integrated part of the taillights, which were extended from the quarter panels. Finally, at the top of the car, the car manufacturer added a pair of rails.
Inside, the high-mounted sets made the front passengers feel like they were in an MPV. Fronting the driver was an enhanced instrument cluster filled with white dials and red needles. Below them, the automaker installed an LCD that showed data from the car’s onboard computer. All versions were fitted with a stereo as standard, but customers could also opt for an advanced infotainment system for those times, which included satellite navigation, a CD stereo, and an MP3 player. The car benefited from power windows for all doors and even a retractable one for the tailgate. In addition, to make the vehicle feel roomier, Fiat added a moonroof as well. As expected, the trunk’s space didn’t change. It remained at the same values of 510 liters (18 cu-ft) to 1,480 liters (52.27 cu-ft).
Under the hood, the automaker installed a choice of gasoline and turbodiesel engines paired with a five-speed manual that sent all the oomph to the front wheels.
