FactThe humble Fiat Siena was also built under license in North Korea — assembled in Nampo from 2002 to 2006 as the Pyeonghwa Hwiparam, using knock-down kits shipped from Vietnam.
The Fiat Siena is the four-door sedan of the Palio (type 178), launched in Argentina in late 1996 and in Brazil in August 1997 because hatchbacks sold so well in developing countries, later sold worldwide (as the Petra in India, Palio Sedan in Mexico, Dodge Forza and Vision, Pyeonghwa Hwiparam in North Korea and, in 2002–2006, the Nanjing Fiat Perla), and in Europe from 2002 as the Albea. The range began with Fiasa and Fire 1.0 to 1.6-litre gasoline engines; a 2000 facelift by Giugiaro added new fascias, an interior, 16-valve Fire engines of 70 hp (1.0) and 82 hp (1.2) and a Speedgear CVT in Turkey and China; the 2004 facelift (also by Giugiaro) made it the first Brazilian compact sedan with four airbags, an auto-dimming mirror, rain sensor and park assistance, with a 1.3 Fire 16-valve, a new 1.4 Fire 8-valve of 80 hp and a 1.8 GM Powertrain 8-valve of 112 PS shared with the Chevrolet Corsa (112 hp on gasoline and 114 hp on alcohol at 5,500 rpm in the flex version); a 2007 facelift gave it its own front design, apart from the Palio, and a Tetrafuel 1.4. It sold over 800,000 in Brazil over 14 years, and the Albea also gained a 1.3 Multijet diesel of 70 bhp.

Rivals
Same body, same money, other badges — tap any card to flip.
It briefly served as senior sibling to Marquette, a GM companion brand cancelled after just one year.
Nissan hired former BMW engineers to help develop the 510's suspension, which is why period reviewers frequently compared its handling to the BMW 1600/2002.
A Trabant 601 won its class at the 1970 Monte Carlo Rally, with a second 601 right behind it in second.
The 600 was a stopgap: the P50's body over the 601's mechanicals, and for a while its estate was built alongside the new 601 saloon.
The G80 Sport brought a 370 PS twin-turbo 3.3 V6, a mesh grille and copper-tinted chrome with copper stitching to match.
The Vigor was sold only with a five-cylinder engine, an unusual configuration Honda used to fit a longer engine transversely under a short hood.
The GS/E coupe earned the nickname "German Charger" for its long hood, short deck stance borrowed from Detroit muscle cars.
This DeVille/Fleetwood was the first production car anywhere to mount its V8 sideways, Cadillac's front-drive gamble on the new C-body.
