Latest update to the Avventura gets a new name and is all the better for it.
IT IS ACTUALLY the Fiat Avventura Powered by Abarth Urban Cross. What’s in the name? Well, the story of getting things right by learning from past mistakes. The Avventura as you might know was the cross hatch version of the Punto. It was meant to take on the Cross Polo, Etios Cross and to aim a little higher, even the Ford EcoSport. The EcoSport was right in its crosshairs due to the spare wheel mounted on the rear hatch of the Avventura. It was an interesting contraption but it didn’t really work well, the hatch opening mechanism was cumbersome and the quality of engineering left us disappointed. And since the Avventura didn’t come with parking sensors or a camera, the spare wheel cover would often sport a crack due to a parking mishap.
