The Fiat Tipo, a compact car produced by the Italian automaker Fiat from 1988 to 1995, marked a significant shift in the company's strategy. Designed by I.DE.A Institute, the Tipo broke away from Fiat's traditional, somewhat quirky styling, opting for a more modern and streamlined aesthetic. The Tipo's success proved the viability of this approach, earning the European Car of the Year award in 1989 and becoming a popular choice for buyers seeking a practical and affordable vehicle. The Tipo's appeal stemmed from its well-balanced combination of features, offering a spacious interior, comfortable ride, and efficient engines. It was available in various body styles, including a three-door hatchback, a five-door hatchback, a four-door sedan, and a station wagon, catering to a diverse range of customer needs.

Beyond its popular appeal, the Fiat Tipo served as the basis for numerous variants, including the Fiat Tempra, Fiat Bravo, Fiat Brava, and Fiat Siena. While the Tipo's production ended in 1995, its legacy continued through these derivatives. The name "Tipo" was revived in 2015 with the launch of a new generation of the compact car, further solidifying its place in Fiat's history. However, the 1988-1992 Fiat Tipo remains a significant model for its contribution to Fiat's success during a period of significant industry change. The Tipo's blend of practicality, affordability, and design helped revive Fiat's image and solidified its position as a leading player in the European automobile market. The service repair workshop manual for this era of the Fiat Tipo, while not a vehicle itself, serves as a crucial resource for mechanics and owners seeking to maintain and repair their Tipo vehicles, ensuring their continued operation and enjoyment.
