Fiat Grande Panda stars at Brussels Motor Show
Both the Fiat and Fiat Professional brands are participating in the 101st edition of the Brussels Motor Show 2025, running this week and showcasing the latest product innovations.
Star of the stand is the new Fiat Grande Panda (pictured), in the spotlight after its preview in July during Fiat’s 125th anniversary celebrations in Turin. The new model will be available in Ireland later this year in both electric and hybrid powertrains.
Visitors will also have the opportunity to admire the 500e Giorgio Armani, the result of the partnership between Giorgio Armani and Fiat. The two globally renowned Italian brands, that have already partnered in 2020 with the launch of a unique, 500e one-off, have once again joined forces to create the ultimate embodiment of ‘Made in Italy’ design on four wheels.
Another vehicle on display is the Fiat 600 Hybrid La Prima. This is powered by a three-cylinder 1.2-litre petrol engine that can deliver up to 100 hp, and is paired with a 48-Volt Li-ion battery and the new six-speed electric dual-clutch transmission which includes the 21-kW e-motor, inverter, and transmission central unit.
Fiat Professional
Finally, on display is the Fiat Professional Ducato, positioned in the area dedicated to Stellantis Pro One, the Group’s Business Unit focussed on commercial vehicles. The vehicle on the exhibit is an L2H2 van with a 140hp thermal engine and manual transmission to allow visitors to gaze at the highly successful model, in continuous production since 1981 and sold in over 80 countries worldwide.
The new Ducato retains its best-in-class cargo capacity of up to 17 m³ and a payload of up to two-tonnes for the diesel version, making it the top-selling vehicle in its segment. Furthermore, the Ducato offers superior cargo space efficiency, providing over 21cm more capacity for the same external length – compared to its competitors – meaning less external footprint and more interior space for business. Even when carrying the heaviest loads, Fiat Professional says the Ducato ensures exceptional comfort, precision, and handling in all driving conditions.
