Currently FIAT launched its comeback to the global mainstream based on 3 pillars: Italian design and development, global platform and local relevance—and the Grande Panda is the first member of the FIAT new global family. Therefore, over the next decade, FIAT will have the right offer for every customer. Because the customer is at the center of everything.
Next future: FIAT has already announced the forthcoming release of the new Fiat 500 Ibrida (hybrid) to be produced at the Mirafiori plant in Turin. Additionally, FIAT is advancing its development of the SUV and fastback models. These exciting new models are now in advanced stages and are scheduled for release in the coming years. These strategic launches mark FIAT’s new season which will be characterized by inclusivity, ingenuity, Italian style, and a global spirit.
In Europe, FIAT made a bold choice: to go fully electrified. It is a socially relevant strategy aimed at customers that FIAT respects: electrified because it is good for the environment and the clients. That’s how FIAT ensures that a vehicle sold today will continue to have market value in the future. FIAT’s new and future models – such as the 600, 500, Grande Panda, and the others to come – will be available only with BEV or hybrid powertrain, equipped with automatic transmission.
