The Fiat Fastback maintains a price below R$ 100 thousand for people with disabilities (PcD), even after the end of the sales event known as 'Feirão Agosto Arrasador' (Devastating August Fair).
This promotion took place during the weekend of August 15th and 16th in over 500 dealerships.
Specifically, the Turbo 200 version, without any options, is available for R$ 99,980 cash, through direct sale to PcD. This special condition is valid until September 2nd or while stocks last, whichever comes first, limited to 20 units.
According to Fiat, the discount of R$ 20,010 applied to the original cash price of R$ 119,990 is due to the IPI and ICMS exemptions applicable to the direct sales modality. The offer refers to the Fastback Turbo 200 Flex AT model, brand new, year-model 2026/2026, in Volcano Black, and without additional accessories.
For the general public, during the fair, the entry-level Turbo 200 version, equipped with the Smart Drive package, was presented with an initial price of R$ 119,990. This package includes features such as glossy black mirror trim, body-colored door handles, wireless charging, rearview camera, keyless entry, and remote start.
Other models were highlighted in the campaign. The Mobi, flagship car, had its Like version offered for R$ 72,490, which the manufacturer claims is the lowest price in Brazil for this model. The Mobi Trekking, aimed at a more adventurous profile, was sold for R$ 79,690.
However, the cheapest car title varies according to the campaign. The week before the fair, Renault dealerships advertised the Kwid for less than R$ 70 thousand, although these were regional conditions, dependent on stock, and not corresponding to the official brand table, which sets the value at R$ 82,790.
The Pulse also participated in the promotional sales. Its manual Drive 1.3 version started at R$ 99,990, while the automatic version was available from R$ 109,990. Furthermore, it was possible to contract the Fiat by Subscription program with installments of R$ 2,299. The top-of-the-line model, Pulse Abarth, was quoted from R$ 146,290.
In the pickup truck category, the Toro Endurance received a bonus of R$ 4,000 when trading in a used Fiat vehicle. The Freedom version, which features an 8.4-inch multimedia center, rearview camera, and dual-zone automatic air conditioning, had an initial price of R$ 134,990. The Strada Endurance, recognized as the best-selling vehicle in the country, was offered from R$ 87,790 in direct sales.
The fair period coincided with a series of offers from competitors, including actions by Volkswagen and the Caoa group, intensifying competition for prices in the second half of the automotive market.
Fiat did not provide information on the permanence of the other conditions announced during the fair after the event concluded. The manufacturer advises consumers to check current values at a partner dealership before finalizing any purchase.
Leapmotor announced that it will introduce the Leapmotor B10 model in its 'Ultra-Hybrid' version to the Brazilian market, which incorporates REEV technology, meaning a range extender. The official presentation of this vehicle in Brazil is scheduled to take place at the Interlagos Festival 2026, which will be held between August 27 and 30, at the José Carlos Pace Autodrome, located in São Paulo (SP).
The Chinese manufacturer, which is controlled by Stellantis, has not yet disclosed the selling prices or detailed technical specifications for the configuration intended for Brazil. In an official statement, the company only informed that the model will be launched with a series of innovations in the national line, the details of which will be revealed during the event. The brand's booth will also feature the Electric B10, the Electric C10, and the Ultra-Hybrid C10.
The REEV nomenclature indicates a distinct operation compared to conventional hybrids. In the case of the B10 Ultra-Hybrid, wheel movement is always provided by the electric motor. The internal combustion engine has no mechanical connection to the transmission; it acts exclusively as a generator, producing electricity to supply the battery when its charge level reaches a predetermined point.
In practice, the car's behavior is identical to that of a purely electric vehicle in all situations, offering instant torque, silent operation, and eliminating the perceptible transitions found in traditional hybrid models. The distinction lies in the method of energy replenishment: the driver can choose to connect the car to a socket or stop at a gas station. This principle is the same one applied to the C10 REEV already available in the country.
In markets where it is already being sold, such as Europe and Argentina, the B10 REEV features a 218 hp rear electric motor and 24.5 kgfm, coupled with a 68 hp naturally aspirated gasoline engine, whose function is restricted to energy generation. Its LFP battery, with a capacity of 18.8 kWh, is smaller than that of the electric B10 and allows for up to 86 km on the WLTP cycle. With a 50-liter tank, the combined range reaches approximately 900 km.
Recharging supports 6.6 kW in AC and 46 kW in DC. In Argentina, where it was launched in July, the version starts at a price of US$ 31,990, which is equivalent to about R$ 167 thousand at the current exchange rate.
It is worth noting that the B10 arrived at Brazilian dealerships in April, offered in a fully electric version solely for R$ 182,990. Leapmotor promotes campaigns with trade-in bonuses for R$ 175,990 and offers special conditions for people with disabilities, taxi drivers, and CNPJ holders, always including a wallbox. This electric package has 218 hp, a 56.2 kWh battery, and a range of 288 km according to the Inmetro cycle, or 361 km according to WLTP.
The SUV dimensions are 4.53 m in length and 2.74 m in wheelbase. It is equipped with a 14.6-inch multimedia center with wireless connectivity for Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, seats upholstered with OEKO-TEX material, seven airbags, and the Leap Pilot semi-autonomous driving system, classified as Level 2. All these features are expected to be maintained in the version that includes the range extender.
Finally, Stellantis has confirmed that both the B10 and the C10 will be the first Leapmotor vehicles to be manufactured at the plant located in the Goiana Automotive Hub, in Pernambuco.

Paramount Skydance has expressed its desire to force the American states obstructing its merger with Warner Bros. Discovery to assume the costs and fees generated by the transaction's postponement. This request was formalized on Monday, the 17th, through a new document within the antitrust process challenging the operation.
The company requested that the states involved in the lawsuit provide a guarantee of $1.88 billion (approximately R$ 9.8 billion) to cover potential losses resulting from the merger's delay.
In July, a coalition of 12 state attorneys general, led by California Attorney General Rob Bonta, initiated a lawsuit aimed at blocking the $110 billion (about R$ 572 billion) union between Paramount and Warner.
This operation aimed to unite two major film studios—Paramount and Warner Bros.—in addition to consolidating a vast set of cable TV channels in the United States and the streaming platforms HBO Max and Paramount+.
The state attorneys general allege that such a merger would violate the Clayton Antitrust Act, legislation over a hundred years old that prohibits acquisitions and mergers deemed harmful to competition.
A Paramount spokesperson mentioned the Clayton Act and other federal regulations, arguing that they require the plaintiffs—in this case, the states—to provide a guarantee to cover potential damages caused by suspending the transaction during litigation.
Paramount stated: 'Here, every month of delay brings substantial and quantifiable financial consequences.'
The company informed the Judiciary in the document presented that, up to the conclusion of the trial and the presentation of final arguments by the parties, Paramount had already disbursed $1.3 billion in irrecoverable maintenance fees to Warner Bros. shareholders.
Additionally, Paramount argues that the delay jeopardizes the validity of the regulatory approvals that the companies spent months obtaining.
According to the document, 'Without a guarantee, even a complete victory on the merits would not recover a single dollar of these extraordinary losses. This is precisely why federal legislation requires plaintiffs to provide a guarantee as a condition for receiving preliminary measures, such as the court-approved order.'
In its statement, Paramount specified that the requested $1.88 billion corresponds to a 'direct calculation of the maximum potential consideration related to ticking fees and financing costs arising from this process.'
However, the company emphasized that these are not the only costs associated with the operation's delay. Paramount added that due to a delay of at least eight months in finalization, there will be no integration or increase in investments in content, production, and creative talent by the combined company. Employees of both companies are also affected by the uncertainty generated by the merger's postponement.
Besides California, the group of states bringing the lawsuit against Paramount includes a total of 12 states, led by California Attorney General Rob Bonta. The action was filed in July, asserting that the merger between Paramount and Warner Bros. Discovery violates the Clayton Antitrust Act, established more than a century ago to prevent concentrations that harm competition.
