The Fiat Marea, a mid-size family car, was produced by Fiat from 1996 to 2002. This model offered a considerable step up from the Fiat Tipo it replaced, boasting a more refined design, improved safety features, and a more spacious interior. The Marea was available in both a standard sedan and a station wagon variant, known as the Marea Weekend. Both body styles were praised for their practicality and roomy interior, offering comfortable seating for five adults.

Under the hood, the Marea offered a range of gasoline and diesel engines, ranging from 1.4 to 2.0 liters in displacement. The Marea's engine lineup focused on providing a balance of performance and fuel efficiency, with most models offering a smooth ride and adequate power for everyday driving. The Marea was also praised for its well-tuned suspension, which provided a comfortable ride without sacrificing too much handling precision. While not a sporty model, the Marea offered a good balance of comfort and performance, making it a popular choice for families and drivers seeking a practical and dependable car. The Marea's lasting legacy is its reputation for reliability and practicality, offering a compelling value proposition in the competitive mid-size car segment.
