Fiat Tipo SW: Mothers in the car with Romina Minadeo
On board with Romina. On board the Fiat Tipo, with a 100 bhp 1.0 3-cylinder petrol engine, combined with a 5-speed manual gearbox - particularly suitable for moving in urban areas, because it is low in fuel consumption - we meet Romina Minadeo, TV presenter, face of football Sportitalia, former acrobat but above all mother of Sofia Maya and Bianca. With her we will go to the discovery of all the "tricks" to solve and speed up the many commitments of a mother, in everyday life.
Romina "fights" every day to reconcile private life and work. He records his programs at Sportitalia a couple of times a week and helps his partner in the family business. But above all she is the mother of a gymnast of national interest: Sofia Maya, in fact, has been practicing rhythmic gymnastics - at the Forza e Coraggio company in Milan - for several years and is engaged, daily, in two training sessions. Romina, therefore, is used to struggling through the streets of the Lombard capital to help her daughter achieve her gymnast dreams.

Practicality. The Fiat Tipo Station Wagon therefore proved to be the ideal car for a mother like Romina: almost 4 meters and 60 centimeters long, it makes practicality one of its business cards. It has a large 440-liter trunk that becomes 1,050 with the second row seats folded down. Under the trunk floor there is also a practical organizer for storing small objects, thus preventing them from moving in a disorderly way in space.
Convenient and accessible. Accessibility is one of its strengths: the doors open to 90 degrees, facilitating access to the passenger compartment which is large and can comfortably accommodate four passengers. The anchoring of the seats is also easy and intuitive, thanks to the "Isofox" attachments in sight and within reach.
Romina Minadeo appreciated the comfort and style of the Fiat Tipo: elegant, clean, with a touch of originality thanks to the new “stylish” and retro Fiat logo placed on the front grille of the car. A new look also for the headlights that adopt full-LED technology and give the car an even more captivating appearance.
How is it going. The Fiat Tipo turned out to be a pleasant car to drive. The steering in the "city" mode proved to be very light when maneuvering, especially in the city, where our "super" mother was able to appreciate the driving comfort of this car which, among other things, also features a whole range of driving aids, very important for active safety, including: recognition of road signs, automatic emergency braking, lane maintenance and adaptive cruise control.
Technological. The equipment of the Fiat Tipo is completed by the new 10-inch touch screen, located on the dashboard, with the latest generation Uconnect 5 system, compatible with Apple Car Play and Android Auto and the convenient tray with wireless charging for smartphones.
The 7-inch digital cluster placed in front of the steering wheel is also new: Romina was able to configure it to her liking. Here are all the main info on the car: from the fuel level, to the tachometer, to the speed ...
In short: Fiat Tipo is practical, versatile, comfortable and also attentive! The version driven by Romina Minadeo, according to the WLTP homologation cycle, consumes 5.5 liters of petrol every 100 km.
