When one thinks of the Fiat Multipla, what comes to mind is a model that has caused discussions for years with its design but at the same time also a car capable of meeting the needs of hundreds of thousands of families thanks to its versatility, starting with plenty of space on board. It’s hard to think of the Multipla as a racing car, yet there is someone in France who has turned it into an authentic racing car, with a maximum power of 1,300 horsepower.
Debut in Paris, then Magny Cours
These are the founders of the YouTube channel Philbrequin who presented their project a few months ago, making its debut in solid form at the 2022 Paris Motor Show and now also on track, with the extreme car taken to the asphalt of the Magny Cours. The 1000Tipla project was born thanks to an online fundraiser, which allowed a couple of web celebrities to create this extreme version of the Fiat family car.
