Fiat has launched updated versions of the Linea saloon and Grande Punto hatch.

All Linea variants now get automatic headlights, rain-sensing wipers and the Linea Emotion diesel variant gets the same 16-inch turbine-blade alloy wheels, earlier available only on the petrol T-Jet variant. 

Both cars get an upgraded air conditioner unit and more ground clearance – now at 185mm. There are some revisions to the 92bhp 1.3-litre diesel engine as well. The base-variant Punto, the Active, now gets an audio system similar to the Linea’s.

A new paint shade called Oceanic Blue has also been added to both Linea and Grande Punto models.
