Renowned for their dependability
Fiat began production of light commercial vehicles back in 1903. The 24 Horse Power (reflecting the engine’s output) was the same size as present-day vehicles, with a wooden flatbed that could carry up to 4 tonnes. The vehicle was so impressive for its time that even the Armed Forces showed an interest.
Fast forward 120 years and Fiat is still going strong, building multitasking vans that are reliable, versatile, and jam-packed with technology and driving assistance aids.

Consider some other reasons for choosing a Fiat van to fulfill your business requirements.
Engine Performance & Driveability
Fiat commercial vans are renowned for their low running costs on account of their efficient engines. Further, the ability to improve performance and driveability, while at the same time offering cleaner fuel combustion, lets Fiat engines stand out from those of its competitors. This is made possible by their MultiJet system using sophisticated technology, such as Variable Geometry Turbochargers and Common Rail Direct Injectors.
- Variable Geometry Turbocharger
Designed to allow effective aspect ratio to be altered as engine conditions change. These turbochargers allow sufficient air to enter the engine at lower speeds and greatly reduce turbo lag for a much-improved driving experience.
- Common Rail Direct Injection
Older diesel fuel injection systems are cam-driven, meaning the injection pressure of fuel depends on the speed of the engine. Therefore, at lower speeds, the fuel injected will be at a lower pressure and therefore less atomised, resulting in inefficient combustion. The CRDI system eliminates this by providing a constant high pressure to the injectors, resulting in complete combustion, a more efficient running engine, and a reduction in noise. In other words a quieter running engine, more comfortable drive, and better fuel economy.
Comfort & Technological Advancements
In addition to more refined engines for a better driving experience, Fiat has addressed the issue of cab interiors for improved driver comfort. It is self-evident that anyone who spends the bulk of their working day driving a vehicle merits an environment that minimises stress, and Fiat hasn’t fainted in this particular area.
Below are a few features the design team has implemented in pursuit of improved comfort and stress reduction:
- Ergonomic steering wheel
- Adjustable steering wheel positioning
- Adjustable seat positioning
- Keyless entry & go
- Eat & work seat bench
- Maximised readability of instrument panel
- Improved acoustic comfort for reduced noise levels
- Spacious compartments with enhanced reachability
Peace of mind while driving is another form of comfort. Commercial vehicles spend a lot of time on the road, and because of their size and mass, pose a greater hazard to smaller vehicles and pedestrians if involved in a collision.
Due to concerns expressed by Euro NCAP on the safety aspects of some commercial vans, Fiat stepped up to the plate to make their new van range even safer. For example, the new Ducato claimed the top spot with an overall score of 88% after a major safety make-over, which included the addition of an advanced sensor designed to protect pedestrians and cyclists, resulting in a higher Euro NCAP medal position than its siblings that share the same platform.
Some other safety features that Fiat has incorporated in its vehicles include:
- Adaptive cruise control (with stop & go function)
- Lane control system
- AEB control function (track pedestrians and cyclists)
- Crosswind assist
- Trailer stability control
- Autonomous post-collision braking
- Traction+ (improved grip)
