Not a bad little car, but kinda misses out on the "cute" styling points that other small cars from its era get. High meh. I don't hate the car (and I'm surprised it hasn't been done before) but I just didn't feel like going any higher.
 
did not know such a thing existed...

now i know where the "Multipla" nameplate came from, it wasn't invented just in the 90s...

this is cool, not sub zero tho...
 
When I see "Fiat Multipla," I keep thinking of that FIAT Multipla GT3 car someone made for "Assetto Corsa." That was a 1990s-ish Multipla, but we're discussing this vintage Multipla. Very easy Cool for me. I don't think it's absolutely adorable, but I do think it is a very cute car with a fairly obscure design.
 
Childhood memories of an eccentric neighbour probably aren't normal definition of cool, but that doesn't matter.

The only person I knew who drove one of these things was a beatnik, a very odd and antisocial one at that. The sports car crowd I hung around with did not admire them. Although they did get interested in the Fiat-Abarth. The 750cc Fiat engine was commonly installed in our 750cc class for racing sports cars, then referred to as H-Modified.
 
Send it to he... wait.

There is actually a good looking Multipla in this world??? I've just learned something new today.

Very, veeery high Coool.
 
Looks? Adorable.

Space? Not much.

Italian? Mama-mia Pizzeria.

Layout? Porsche.

Speed? Forward.

Roof Rack? Optional.

Sub-Zero? Abso-tootly.

Its cute but the cab forward almost backwards styling doesn't really work. Also I wonder how much it would struggle with 6 people on board. Overall meh.
 
This car itroduced the concept of a practical car to italians in a way, but it's cheerful and it's still fondly remembered to this day.
I'll give it a very high Cool.
