About the Fiat Duna
Developed by Fiat Automóveis in Brazil and later produced in Argentina, the Duna was a three-box saloon version of the popular Fiat Uno. While it was briefly sold in Europe as the Duna, it achieved its greatest success in South America, where it became a staple of the Argentinian market and a ubiquitous choice for taxi drivers. The '60' trim features the 1.1-litre SOHC engine, prioritising fuel economy and simplicity over performance. Despite its humble origins, the Duna is remembered for its massive boot capacity and rugged reliability on varied road surfaces.
