The Fiat Tempra, produced from 1990 to 1996, was a compact saloon car that represented a significant step forward for Fiat in terms of design, engineering, and technology. This mid-size car aimed to compete with popular models like the Ford Sierra and Vauxhall Cavalier, offering a spacious and comfortable interior, refined driving dynamics, and a range of economical and powerful engine options. The Tempra was offered in various trims, from the basic "S" and "SX" to the luxurious "S/E" and "C.S.E," catering to a wide range of customer needs. It featured a modern, aerodynamic design with a distinctive "wedge" shape, emphasizing its sleek and sporty character. While the car was known for its practicality, particularly the ample boot space, it also earned praise for its handling and overall responsiveness. Under the hood, the Tempra was available with a diverse selection of petrol and diesel engines, ranging from the small and fuel-efficient 1.4-liter engine to the more powerful 1.8-liter and 2.0-liter petrol units. The diesel option, a 1.9-liter turbocharged engine, offered strong torque and impressive fuel economy. The Tempra's suspension system was designed to provide a comfortable ride while maintaining good handling characteristics, thanks to its independent front and rear suspension setup. Safety features included a driver's airbag and anti-lock braking system (ABS) on select models. While the Tempra never achieved the same level of commercial success as some of its competitors, it proved to be a reliable and relatively affordable car, offering a good balance of practicality, comfort, and performance for its time.
