About the 2017 FIAT HYMER

The 2017 FIAT HYMER is a large car with a 2287cc diesel engine. 227 of these vehicles were MOT tested in 2024, making it a less common model in the UK market. It ranks in the top 14% of all 2017 cars for reliability.

With an average of 22,888 miles at 7 years old, FIAT HYMER owners tend to use this car less than the typical driver. Very low mileage could mean the car has been garaged or used only for short trips, which can cause its own issues like battery drain and moisture buildup.

The 2287cc diesel engine offers a reasonable balance between performance and economy. Expect around 40 mpg in mixed driving, which works out to roughly £1,245 per year at current diesel prices of 148p per litre (based on 7,400 miles per year). Diesel cars of this age should have their DPF (diesel particulate filter) checked, as replacements can be costly.

What does it cost to own a 2017 FIAT HYMER?

Total estimated annual running cost is £1,690 (£141/month), broken down as £1245 fuel, £190 road tax, £55 MOT, and £200 predicted repairs. The low repair estimate reflects the excellent 95% pass rate. These cars rarely fail their MOT, so unexpected bills are less likely.
