The Fiat Marea Weekend, produced from 1996 to 1999, was a spacious and versatile station wagon built upon the successful platform of the Fiat Marea sedan. It was designed to cater to families and individuals seeking a blend of practicality and style. The Marea Weekend offered generous cargo space, easily accommodating luggage, sporting equipment, or even a small family dog. The interior was designed with comfort in mind, featuring a spacious cabin and ample legroom for passengers. It was available with a range of petrol and diesel engines, including the 1.6, 1.8, 2.0, and 1.9 JTD units, providing a good balance of performance and fuel efficiency. The Marea Weekend boasted a robust chassis and a comfortable ride, making it suitable for both city driving and longer journeys. The Marea Weekend, despite its practicality, was not without its quirks. Some owners reported issues with the electrical system, particularly with the central locking and window mechanisms. Others experienced problems with the suspension and brakes, which required regular maintenance. While these issues were not widespread, they did contribute to the Marea Weekend's reputation for being slightly less reliable than some of its competitors. Overall, the Fiat Marea Weekend was a compelling option for those seeking a practical and stylish station wagon. Its spacious interior, reasonable performance, and competitive pricing made it a popular choice for families and individuals alike. However, its potential for reliability issues and the availability of newer, more refined models eventually led to its discontinuation in 1999.
