The new Fiat Tipo Station Wagon is being officially launched at Desira's dealerships at Norwich, Great Yarmouth, Diss and Bury St Edmunds on Saturday.

The estate version, which joins the hatchback, boasts a class-leading 550-litre boot than can also carry loads of up to 1.8m thanks to an extra 20cm of length and flip-and-fold 60/40 split rear seats that provide a completely flat load floor. The Station Wagon also gets longitudinal roof bars as standard.

Loading the boot is aided by a low load sill, adjustable load floor and removable side storage panels to further increase the width of the luggage compartment. The roller cover can be removed with one hand and stored under the floor panel, while two lights, two bag hooks and four load-retaining hooks positioned on the floor provide added convenience.

The engine range comprises 95hp 1.4-litre and automatic 110hp 1.6-litre petrol, 120hp 1.4-litre turbo petrol and 95hp 1.3-lite and 120hp 1.6-litre turbo diesels.

Prices start at £13,995, rising to £19,995.
