Is the Fiat Punto Evo a good replacement for my Fiat Punto Grande?

I might change my 2009 Fiat Punto Grande for a new Fiat Punto Evo next February or March. In what respects, if any, would the Evo be better than my Grande (apart from age, of course?) and, is there likely to be any new model of Fiat to improve or replace the Evo in the foreseeable future? Fiat has no plans to replace the current Punto or Bravo because they are not moneymakers.

Fiat has stopped calling it the Grande Punto Evo now, and it's back to just plain Punto. Test and video here: www.honestjohn.co.uk/road-tests/fiat/fiat-punto-tw.../. Fiat has suspended all plans to replace the current Punto and Bravo models and to instead concentrate on models that make more money.
