The Fiat Siena was a supermini produced by the Italian manufacturer Fiat since 1996. It is the four-door saloon version of the Fiat Palio, a supermini car especially designed for developing countries. It was introduced for the first time in South America, and was produced in various countries worldwide. Later, in 2002, a similar car based on the same platform was developed for the European market, the Fiat Albea. It replaced the Siena in these European markets, such as Poland, where the original model was previously sold.

In 2012, Fiat released the second generation of the Siena, called the Fiat Grand Siena.

The Siena was one of the most popular saloons in Brazil, selling in over 800,000 units throughout 14 years of presence. In Italy the car isn't available, after the flop of the predecessor Fiat Duna.

Launched in 1996, in Brazil, as the four-door saloon of the Fiat Palio, codenamed Project 178, the Siena (pictured above) was made due to the important sales benchmark of hatchback models in developing countries. The range was made from Fiasa and Fire petrol engines between 1.0 L and 1.6 L.

In 2001, the model has the first facelift. The new design was made by the Italian design-guru Giorgetto Giugiaro. The facelift includes a new front and rear design, and a brand new interior. Also, new engines came as the 16-valve Fire engines 1.0 L 70 HP and the 1.2 L 82 HP. In Turkey and China the redesign Siena was introduced with a Speedgear semi-automatic gearbox. With this new design, the small car was finally able to fight for its place in the market, becoming a success in sales. Fiat had considered changing the name to Palio Saloon, due to the lack of interest on the previous Siena, and the solid sales of its biggest competitor, the Chevrolet Prisma. This idea was later discarded. Up to this point, the Fiat Siena was the only model belonging to the Palio family that had not been well accepted by the community. Therefore, Fiat gave special attention to the design of this model in particular, having its rear entirely redesigned.
