Bravo T-Jet version of Fiat Engineering work disruption can also primarily athletic. One of the objectives was to lower the car's center of gravity by 20 mm. They were also renewed a better stability of operations, without losing the comfort.
To get good results in performance, the engineers worked around 350,000 Fiat Bravo Fiat Autom�veis hours. And 140 vehicles were built between the prototypes and. His experiments included testing and engine and transmission, durability, emissions, chassis, body, electrical design and safety. All components have been tested in the toughest so the techniques can be satisfied with the quality of the new car.
