SAO PAULO SHOW: Fiat FCC4 concept
Fiat takes the covers off a four-door 'coupe' with an adventurous spiritWhat would you get if you crossed a Range Rover Evoque with an HSV Maloo, an Alfa Romeo 4C and a Nissan JUKE?
It sounds like the preamble for a punchline that doesn't exist, but in our view it's the makings of Fiat's latest concept, the FCC4.
Shown today at the Sao Paulo motor show in Brazil, the FCC4 concept is described by its maker as a "four-door coupe with an adventurous spirit".
Its aggressively-styled front fascia has a treble of stacked LED headlights at each side (a la JUKE) and a clamshell bonnet (like the Evoque).
The sharp, rakish lines continue to a glass house styled similarly to the Alfa 4C, with a 'floating' roof and athletic character lines along its high shoulders.
And, like the Maloo, the FCC4 has a rear window you can barely see out of, pick-up style tray with glass tonneau cover and a pair of asymmetrical doors.
The concept's designers spoke of new typology, provocative styling, the ferocity of form, elegance and sobriety... but we're unsure the last point was present at any point throughout the concept's design.
Fiat said the model "could tread a hybrid path" but gave little in the way of detail. The only facts divulged are that the FCC4 measures 1940mm wide (without mirrors), 1600mm tall and 5000mm long, making it a very large vehicle.
