Actually FMC did produce some FIAT Uno cars in the ealry 90's. This was under the peoples car program of the government. Along with Kia Pride and Daihatsu Charade. Sadly it did not really fly. The Philippines did not need a small compact vehicle, what it was in need of was a vehicle they can use for personal, family and utility. This was the AUV. The AUV enjoyed brisk sales since the introduction of the Tamaraw FX, Mitsubishi Advendure, Isuzu Crosswind up to the Revo's and Innova's. But alas, the Government got greedy, and started charging excise taxes to the AUV's. Sales dropped 40%. And now here we are. Struggling with the local auto industry, competing with smuggled vehicles. And now we are even in danger of losing all locally made vehicles and just importing everything in CBU form. Something has got to be done.
