The Fiat Siena is a subcompact car produced by the Italian manufacturer Fiat from 1996 to 2022. It is the four-door sedan 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 and Turkey, 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.{{cite web|title=Fiat Grand Siena debutta in Brasile |language=it |url=http://www.quattroruote.it/notizie/auto-novita/fiat-grand-siena-al-debutto-sul-mercato-brasiliano |archive-url=https://archive.today/20130218100348/http://www.quattroruote.it/notizie/auto-novita/fiat-grand-siena-al-debutto-sul-mercato-brasiliano |url-status=dead |archive-date=18 February 2013 |publisher=Quattroruote.it |date=26 March 2012 }} In Italy the car was not marketed, after the flop of the predecessor Fiat Duna.

The original Siena was launched in Argentina in late 1996 and in Brazil in August 1997, as the four-door sedan of the Fiat Palio, whose code name was Type 178. The Siena was created due to the important sales benchmarks of hatchback models in developing countries. The range was made from Fiasa and Fire 1.0 L to 1.6 L gasoline engines.

=2000–2006=

In 2000, the model received its first facelift. It was designed by Giorgetto Giugiaro of Italdesign. The facelift included new front and rear fascias and a brand-new interior. It also came with new engines: 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" Continuously variable transmission. 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 Sedan, 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.

A second facelift was presented in 2004. The designer was again Giorgetto Giugiaro. It has a new front, rear, and interior design. The 2004 Siena was the first Brazilian compact 4-door sedan with four airbags (two at front and two side airbags), auto-dimming rear-view mirror, rain sensor and park assistance. These accessories, however, are very expensive for the Brazilian and most other South American markets, so they are generally not found in end-use vehicles. The engines range in South America from a 1.3 Fire 16-valve, a new 1.4 Fire 8-valve with 80 HP (the same of the latest Fiat Punto, and a 1.8 GM Powertrain 8-valve with {{convert|112|PS|kW|abbr=on}}, shared with the Chevrolet Corsa). The Siena EL was sold with 1.0 and 1.4 engines, both 8-valve units.

In Brazil, the top model has been equipped by the flex fuel version of the latter 1.8 Powertrain 8-valve – gasoline and/or alcohol – reaching {{Convert|112|hp|kW|0|abbr=on}} with gasoline and {{Convert|114|hp|kW|0|abbr=on}} with alcohol at 5,500 rpm. In Mexico is sold as Palio Sedan, first with the 1.6 16v Torque engine and later with the 1.8 GM Powertrain with {{convert|110|PS|kW|0|abbr=on}}.

In Europe, the new model features the 2004 front and interior design and a 2001 rear design. The Albea, European version of the Siena, also gained the 1.3 Multijet diesel engine, a second generation common rail turbocharged engine, developing {{convert|70|bhp|kW|0|abbr=on}}.

In 2007, Fiat unveiled the facelifted Siena. This fourth version of the model has a unique front design, which for the first time is different from the current Palio.

File:SAO 09 2008 Fiat Siena TetraFuel 2 views v1.jpg

The new Siena follows the new Fiat 'family face', with double front lights and some chrome details in the grille, and around the fog lights. The rear lights are sharp and integrated with the trunk and appeared to be inspired by models of Alfa Romeo, like the 156 and 159.

The new Siena is in production at Betim (Brazil) and Córdoba (Argentina), with 1.0 8v, 1.4 8v, 1.4 8v TetraFuel, and 1.8 8v engines, flexible for the Brazilian market (capable of using gasoline and ethanol). The TetraFuel is the first multifuel car that can run as a flexi-fuel on pure gasoline, or E25, or E100; or runs as a bi-fuel with natural gas (CNG). As of 2011, the sportive version – Siena Sporting 1.6R 16v, equipped with Fiat's Dualogic automatic gearbox – were also in production, although Fiat announced that this variant won't be offered anymore from 2012. All the New Siena EL 1.0, EL 1.4 and many ELX versions circulating at Brazil were, actually, manufactured at Argentina, as Betim's factory is still producing only the more expensive versions.{{Cite web |url=http://www.fiatpress.com.ar/noticia.detalle.php?n=578 |title=Fiat Press (El Presidente argentino y el CEO de FCA anuncian Inversión de U$S 500 millones en la Planta de Córdoba para la producción de un modelo monoalocado 2016-04-05 15:44:12) |access-date=30 June 2016 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20161018154535/http://www.fiatpress.com.ar/noticia.detalle.php?n=578 |archive-date=18 October 2016 |url-status=dead }}
