Fiat's new Tipo will become a new Dodge Neon for Central America, built in Turkey.

Export from the Tofas factory to Mexico will begin in the third quarter, Turkish journalist Okan Altan, who broke the news, told just-auto.

European engine and trim variations will not be much changed – only a Dodge grille and Mexican market requirements will be added.

Earlier research for just-auto's PLDB product had indicated the model would be sold with three grades: SE, SXT and SXT+, all powered by a 110hp 1.6-litre I4 engine and possibly sourced from Brazil's Fiat plant.

In Mexico, it will replace the Hyundai-based Vision sedan.
