The Fiat Marea (Type 185) is a small family car produced by the Italian automaker Fiat from 1996 to 2007. Available as a saloon and an estate, the Marea models were essentially different body styles of Fiat's hatchback offerings, the Bravo and Brava. The Marea replaced the earlier Tipo-based Fiat Tempra, as well as the larger Croma.

While the Fiat Stilo Multiwagon was the successor of the estate version, the Marea Weekend, the Fiat Linea replaced the saloon version in 2007. The car became officially available from 11 September 1996.
