The original Croma was a five-door [[notchback]] [[liftback]] penned by [[Giorgetto Giugiaro]] and built on the "[[Type Four chassis|Type Four]]" chassis, which was designed in cooperation between several companies and was also used for the [[Saab 9000]], [[Lancia Thema]] and [[Alfa Romeo 164]]. Although the other models were [[executive car]]s, the Croma was marketed in the [[large family car]] segment, replacing the [[Fiat 132/Argenta|Fiat Argenta]].
  
 +
Production ceased in 1996, and Fiat abandoned the [[large family car]] segment. The [[Fiat Bravo/Brava|Bravo/Brava]]-based [[Fiat Marea]] [[small family car]] replaced the Croma and [[Fiat Tempra|Tempra]] as the largest saloon and [[station wagon|estate]] in Fiat's model range.

It was available with 1585&nbsp;cc, 83&nbsp;bhp [[DIN]] (61&nbsp;kW) and 1995&nbsp;cc, 90&nbsp;bhp DIN (66&nbsp;kW) [[CHT]] ([[Controlled High Turbulence]]) engines as well as two fuel injected 1995&nbsp;cc units, one with 120&nbsp;bhp DIN (88&nbsp;kW) one [[turbo]]charged and intercooled giving 153&nbsp;bhp DIN (113&nbsp;kW). Also available was the two [[diesel]] engines, one 1929&nbsp;cc, turbocharged with [[direct injection]], 92&nbsp;bhp DIN (68&nbsp;kW), and a 2499&nbsp;cc, with a normally aspirated version giving 75&nbsp;bhp DIN (56&nbsp;kW) and a turbocharged, 115&nbsp;bhp DIN (85&nbsp;kW), version, which replaced the previous 2446&nbsp;cc with 100&nbsp;bhp DIN (74&nbsp;kW). Production ceased in 1996.
+
=== Engines ===
 +
The Fiat Croma was the first passenger car in the world to have a [[Diesel engine#Direct injection|direct injection Diesel]] (Turbo D i.d.) engine in (1986).
  
−
==2005==
+
The Croma was available with a variety of petrol and diesel engines, the former from the Fiat DOHC engine family. Base models had the 1585&nbsp;cc, 83&nbsp;[[horsepower#PS|PS]] (61&nbsp;kW) and 1995&nbsp;cc, 90&nbsp;PS (66&nbsp;kW) "Controlled High Turbulence" powerplants, followed by two fuel injected 2.0&nbsp;L units, one with 120&nbsp;PS (88&nbsp;kW) and the other a [[turbocharger|turbocharged]] and intercooled version giving 153&nbsp;PS (113&nbsp;kW). [[Diesel engine]]s were the Fiat's 1.9&nbsp;L fitted with a turbocharger with [[direct injection]], giving 92&nbsp;PS (68&nbsp;kW), and the 2499&nbsp;cc unit supplied by [[Iveco]], with a normally aspirated version giving 75&nbsp;PS (55&nbsp;kW) and a turbocharged one with 115&nbsp;PS (85&nbsp;kW). This one replaced the previous 2446&nbsp;cc with 100&nbsp;PS (74&nbsp;kW). The 2.5 L petrol V6 unit was from [[Alfa Romeo]].
−
In 2005, Fiat announced a large hatchback with an upright tailgate, reminiscent of that of the [[Fiat Stilo]], called the Croma. Again, Giugiaro styled the exterior. It has gone on sale in [[Italy]] in [[June]] 2005.

 +
In 2005, Fiat announced a large cross-over wagon with an upright tailgate, reminiscent of that of the [[Fiat Stilo]], resurrecting the Croma nameplate. Again, Giugiaro styled the exterior, while the chassis was provided via the short-lived link with [[General Motors]]. The new Croma is therefore based on the extended variant of the [[GM Epsilon platform]] sharing components with the [[Opel Vectra]] and [[Saab 9-3]]. It went on sale in Italy in June 2005.
 +
 
 +
Unlike the previous model, and aware of its lack of image in the upper market segments, Fiat opted for not developing a standard [[large family car]] but developing a "Comfort Wagon", an automobile with design elements of both [[station wagon|estate]]s and [[large MPV]]s. Its height of 1600&nbsp;mm falls between the [[Mitsubishi Grandis]] and [[Ford S-MAX]] large MPVs (1655&nbsp;mm and 1660&nbsp;mm respectively) and [[Toyota Avensis|Toyota Avensis Wagon]] (1525&nbsp;mm).
 +
 
 +
In February 2007, Fiat UK announced that the Croma would no longer be generally available in the UK, after less than 900 were sold in the whole of 2005. The car will still be offered by special order only, with right-hand drive models manufactured to customer specifications.
 +
 
 +
=== Safety ===
 +
The Croma is manufactured with seven [[airbag]]s as standard including knee bag for the driver. As standard the Croma is equipped with [[anti-lock braking system]] and [[electronic brakeforce distribution]]. It has a five-star [[EuroNCAP]] crash rating for adult occupant protection:
 +
 
 +
 
 +
=== 2007 facelift ===
 +
The Croma got a minor facelift at the end of 2007. A new grille ([[Fiat_Bravo/Brava#Second generation|Bravo]] look) and rear bumper, as well as some material changes inside are the main differences. Fiat now designates the revised model as "Station Wagon" instead of the previously used term "Comfort Wagon".
 +
 
 +
 
 +
=== Engines ===
 +
The Croma, built at Fiat's [[Cassino]] factory, has three trim levels and five engine options. Like the chassis, petrol engines were supplied by Opel, beginning with the brand new evolution of the [[GM Ecotec engine|Ecotec]] 1.8&nbsp;L with 140&nbsp;PS (103&nbsp;kW), followed by the torquier 2.2&nbsp;L with 147&nbsp;PS (108&nbsp;kW). However, the bulk of the sales is represented by Fiat's own [[MultiJet|Multijet engine]], available in three variants 1.9&nbsp;L with 8 valves and 120&nbsp;PS (88&nbsp;kW), 1.9&nbsp;L with 16 valves and 150&nbsp;PS (110&nbsp;kW), and the range topper five-cylinder 2.4&nbsp;L, with 200&nbsp;PS (147&nbsp;kW). The Diesel engines are fitted with a standard six-speed manual gearbox, 6-speed automatic is also available.

The new model, built at Fiat's [[Cassino]] factory, has three trim levels and engine options of 1.8&nbsp;L 130&nbsp;bhp and 2.2&nbsp;L 150&nbsp;bhp petrol, and 1.9&nbsp;L 120&nbsp;bhp, 1.9&nbsp;L 150&nbsp;bhp, and 2.4&nbsp;L 200&nbsp;bhp Multijet diesel.

Fiat will likely position the Croma almost as a crossover model that blends the concept of a large car with [[SUV]]-like styling.

The "Type Four" Fiat Croma
Fiat Croma (after 1991 facelift)


The Fiat Croma is a nameplate used for two automobiles produced by Italian automaker Fiat, one built from 1985 to 1996 and the other since 2005.

First generation (1985-1996)

The original Croma was a five-door notchback liftback penned by Giorgetto Giugiaro and built on the "Type Four" chassis, which was designed in cooperation between several companies and was also used for the Saab 9000, Lancia Thema and Alfa Romeo 164. Although the other models were executive cars, the Croma was marketed in the large family car segment, replacing the Fiat Argenta.

Production ceased in 1996, and Fiat abandoned the large family car segment. The Bravo/Brava-based Fiat Marea small family car replaced the Croma and Tempra as the largest saloon and estate in Fiat's model range.

Engines

The Fiat Croma was the first passenger car in the world to have a direct injection Diesel (Turbo D i.d.) engine in (1986).

The Croma was available with a variety of petrol and diesel engines, the former from the Fiat DOHC engine family. Base models had the 1585 cc, 83 PS (61 kW) and 1995 cc, 90 PS (66 kW) "Controlled High Turbulence" powerplants, followed by two fuel injected 2.0 L units, one with 120 PS (88 kW) and the other a turbocharged and intercooled version giving 153 PS (113 kW). Diesel engines were the Fiat's 1.9 L fitted with a turbocharger with direct injection, giving 92 PS (68 kW), and the 2499 cc unit supplied by Iveco, with a normally aspirated version giving 75 PS (55 kW) and a turbocharged one with 115 PS (85 kW). This one replaced the previous 2446 cc with 100 PS (74 kW). The 2.5 L petrol V6 unit was from Alfa Romeo.

Fiat Croma 2nd generation (2005)
Facelifted Croma (2007)

In 2005, Fiat announced a large cross-over wagon with an upright tailgate, reminiscent of that of the Fiat Stilo, resurrecting the Croma nameplate. Again, Giugiaro styled the exterior, while the chassis was provided via the short-lived link with General Motors. The new Croma is therefore based on the extended variant of the GM Epsilon platform sharing components with the Opel Vectra and Saab 9-3. It went on sale in Italy in June 2005.

Unlike the previous model, and aware of its lack of image in the upper market segments, Fiat opted for not developing a standard large family car but developing a "Comfort Wagon", an automobile with design elements of both estates and large MPVs. Its height of 1600 mm falls between the Mitsubishi Grandis and Ford S-MAX large MPVs (1655 mm and 1660 mm respectively) and Toyota Avensis Wagon (1525 mm).

In February 2007, Fiat UK announced that the Croma would no longer be generally available in the UK, after less than 900 were sold in the whole of 2005. The car will still be offered by special order only, with right-hand drive models manufactured to customer specifications.

Safety

The Croma is manufactured with seven airbags as standard including knee bag for the driver. As standard the Croma is equipped with anti-lock braking system and electronic brakeforce distribution. It has a five-star EuroNCAP crash rating for adult occupant protection:


2007 facelift

The Croma got a minor facelift at the end of 2007. A new grille (Bravo look) and rear bumper, as well as some material changes inside are the main differences. Fiat now designates the revised model as "Station Wagon" instead of the previously used term "Comfort Wagon".


Engines

The Croma, built at Fiat's Cassino factory, has three trim levels and five engine options. Like the chassis, petrol engines were supplied by Opel, beginning with the brand new evolution of the Ecotec 1.8 L with 140 PS (103 kW), followed by the torquier 2.2 L with 147 PS (108 kW). However, the bulk of the sales is represented by Fiat's own Multijet engine, available in three variants 1.9 L with 8 valves and 120 PS (88 kW), 1.9 L with 16 valves and 150 PS (110 kW), and the range topper five-cylinder 2.4 L, with 200 PS (147 kW). The Diesel engines are fitted with a standard six-speed manual gearbox, 6-speed automatic is also available.
