FactBrazil never got a diesel Marea because national law simply banned diesel passenger cars outright.
The Fiat Marea (Type 185), a small family car produced from 1996 to 2007 as a saloon and an estate, the Marea Weekend. The models were essentially different body styles of Fiat's Bravo and Brava hatchbacks, on the Fiat C1 platform shared with the Alfa Romeo 147, 156 and GT, the Multipla and the Lancia Lybra, and they replaced the Tipo-based Tempra and the Croma. The car became officially available on 11 September 1996 and was built at Cassino and Mirafiori in Italy, later superseding the Tempra in Brazil (Betim) and Turkey (Tofaş). In the UK the saloon came in SX, ELX and HLX trim levels. Production and sales in Europe ceased in August 2002, and the Stilo Multi Wagon succeeded the estate while the Fiat Linea replaced the saloon in 2007. The Brazilian-built Marea reached dealers in June 1998 with no diesel engines, because local legislation prohibits diesel cars, and had a 182 PS Turbo model; in 2000 its 2.0 gave way to a 2.4 with 160 PS.

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.
