The 72-litre capacity allows an unexpectedly superior mileage range that is about 300 kilometres when only methane is used. The fuel tank capacity remains unchanged compared to the petrol version (30 litres) thus ensuring peace of mind even where methane suppliers are thin on the ground.

The 'Panda Panda' confirms Fiat's leadership in the methane sector and its continuous quest to find solutions that reconcile customer needs with the greatest respect for the environment. Methane vehicles reduce CO2 emissions by approximately 23% compared to the equivalent petrol vehicles and reduce particulate matter (PM) emissions to practically zero. Emissions when the car is driven in methane mode amount to 114g of CO2 /Km compared to 146g of CO2 /Km in petrol mode (combined cycle).

The 'Panda Panda' will also be available with a Dynamic specification for a car packed with creature comforts that may be customised on the basis of individual requirements. The new Panda version is also ideal for small company fleets since it can be driven around freely in any city centre.

Altogether, the 'Panda Panda' represents a natural balance between driving satisfaction, respect for the environment, high range and low fuel consumption. Dual energy taking you in one direction.



4x4 versions for the greatest freedom

A consummate off-roader, able to get you out of a tight spot when the going gets tough. But also a nimble vehicle that can easily weave in and out of city traffic. This, in brief, describes the twin soul of the Panda 4x4, a car that aims to surprise the most world-weary youngster and has sold 75,000 since its launch: it is the biggest-selling off-road car in Italy.

Now the range is made up of the Panda 4x4 (a quintessentially practical application of the vehicle), the Panda 4x4 Climbing (the small and elegant off-roader able to tackle any situation with an extra touch of interior and exterior sophistication) - and lastly the Panda Cross that brings to the Panda 4x4 range a touch of sportiness and stylistic elegance that make it fashionable enough to appeal to a young, go-ahead audience.


FIAT Panda 4x4 and Panda 4x4 Climbing

The new model is available with a lively, tried and tested 60 bhp 1.2 engine (44 kW) and the ground-breaking 70 bhp 1.3 multijet engine; two specifications (Panda 4x4 and Panda 4x4 Climbing), two interior specifications and ten body colours. On one hand, FIAT Panda 4x4 Climbing presents itself as a small, stylish off-roader able to tackle any situation with an extra touch of sophistication inside and out, an ideal car for extroverts on the move. On the other hand, the range also offers a second specification (Panda 4x4) that does not feature the stylish exterior features of the Climbing but is altogether a more practical down-to-earth vehicle. Attributes include an extraordinary ability to perform on off-road routes, a viscous coupling drive system and high grip tyres.

Both specifications share small dimensions (e.g. the Climbing version is 357 cm long, 160 cm wide and 163 cm high) and great handling in addition to greater height than the conventional model: the extra five centimetres make all the difference by increasing the already outstanding visibility and allowing great mastery of the road, even over difficult routes. The turning circle is just 9.6 metres.

Not to mention the fact that the authentic off-road look makes for a minimum ground clearance (standard A) of 165 millimetres for the Panda 4x4 Climbing (160 mm for the basic version). This impression is reinforced by certain exterior features that also perform a specific off-road function: for example, the bumpers (front and rear) come complete with protective shields while the side strips are large and coordinate with special strips on the wings plus a guard under the engine. Two different tyres are available: the Climbing version comes with 185/65-14 (M+S) tyres suitable for any type of application; the first specification, on the other hand, adopts 165/70-14 (M+S) tyres that are specially reinforced with a tread designed for low grip surfaces.
