Fiat Punto Skill

Vehicle Overview

At the 2006 Geneva Motor Show Fioravanti presented a new patent solution for the roof closing system. It is featured on the Skill concept: a “fun pick up spider” that, thanks to a boot capacity of 750 l. and to an integrated structure, allows to easily carry bikes, ski, snowboards, surfboards, go-kart, etc. This solution is characterized by a simple cynematic and allows to keep the weight in the dynamically safer area. The roof , doing a rotation of 90°, and the rear window doing a translation, they lodge their self in a vertical position in a specific area between the seats and the boot itself. The rear pillars contain the roof and the rear window moving mechanisms, they are also utilized for further integrated functions such as: the roll bar, the stop and the boot lights and the loudspeakers.
