The Fiat Panda is celebrating 40 years with new ‘Sport’ and ‘City Life’ trims in addition to ‘Cross’ and ‘City Cross’ trims, bringing the total to 5 trims including the regular Panda.
The new Panda Sport joins the Fiat Sport family currently comprising the 500X, 500L and Tipo models. It features body-colored door handles and mirror covers; and new two-tone 16-inch alloy wheels with a black centre cap. The options list includes an exclusive Matt Gray livery and a black roof; the latter can be complemented with gloss black door handles and mirror covers. The optional Pandemonio Pack includes red calipers.
Inside, the Panda Sport features titanium-colored dashboard; door panels in eco-leather; black ceiling; and new seats with dark grey upholstery, techno-leather details, fabric side panels and red contrast stitching. The aforementioned Pandemonio Pack adds blacked-out windows and techno-leather steering wheel with red contrast stitching.
Next up is the Panda City Life. It gets a new front bumper, door cladding, and new 15-inch ‘Life’ wheels. There are contrast black elements such as the mirror caps, door handles and roof rails. The interior gets anthracite-colored dashboard and two-tone gray seats.
The Panda Cross will be available in Cross and City Cross sub-trims, boasting an off-road character. Both versions will be available with either FWD or AWD configurations, and can now be methane (CNG) powered. The exterior comes finished with a new Ceramic Blue pastel livery, complemented with red tow hooks, chrome-ish skid plates and roof rails, and 15-inch alloy wheels with a red cap.
The cabin features a two-tone seat upholstery made of recycled plastics; brown contrast stitching, and a wood-effect dashboard, also made of recycled materials.
The cars feature a 7-inch central touchscreen with Apple CarPlay & Android Auto connectivity; DAB digital radio, automatic air conditioning, and rear parking sensors. As an option, Fiat will offer D-Fence pack by Mopar comprising an air filter, air purifier and a UV lamp.
The mild-hybrid powertrain launched with the Panda Hybrid in April this year, is now available across the lineup. It combines a 70 hp 1.0-litre 3-cylinder FireFly petrol engine with a BSG (Belt-integrated Starter Generator) electric motor. Compared to the 69 hp 1.2L Fire, the mild-hybrid powertrain is claimed to improve fuel efficiency and reduce CO2 emissions by up to 30%.
