The Fiat Pulse is a subcompact crossover SUV produced by Fiat mainly for the South American market since 2021. It is also available as a performance model known as the Pulse Abarth[2] and a coupe SUV derivative marketed as the Fiat Fastback since 2022.

Overview

Revealed as an unnamed model in May 2021 in Brazil, its name was subsequently announced in June 2021 after three options were offered to the public, which are Pulse, Tuo, and Domo.[3][4] Developed under the codename Project 363, the vehicle is built on the MLA platform which in turn is based on an improved platform used by the Argo hatchback.[5] Both cars share some bodywork parts such as the windshield and doors. The Pulse went on sale in Brazil in October 2021 along with other South American countries.[6][7]

In 2023, the Pulse in its most basic Latin American market configuration with 4 airbags received 2 stars from Latin NCAP (similar to Euro NCAP 2014).[10]

It is available with the 1.0-litre turbocharged and 1.3-litre turbocharged petrol engines.[14] The Fastback nameplate was previously used for a concept coupe SUV based on the Fiat Toro in 2018.[15]
