Fiat gets adventurous with new Panda 4x4 edition

The ‘evergreen’ Panda 4×4 Adventure is the latest addition to the range of Fiat’s small off-road model. Available for order across Europe, the new series that comes with an automatic four-wheel drive system is offered with a choice of a 1.2-liter petrol engine with 60 horsepower and a 1.3 Multijet16V diesel that makes 70 horsepower. Prices in Italy start from €14,100 ($19,750 US) for the petrol model and from €16,000 ($22,400 US) for the diesel – now that’s what we’d call an ‘adventurous’ price range.

Aside from the green paintjob and the color-keyed bumpers, the Panda 4×4 Adventure is distinguished by the gray central badges, the ‘bronzed’ head- and tail lights and the tinted windows plus the matt black finish for the pillars, the roof bars, the side bars and the mudguard arches.

A set of 14-inch rims painted in dark grey and wrapped in 165/70 M+S tires along with the black framing of the rear lights complete the exterior changes of the new Panda 4×4 variant.

Fiat did not release any photos of the interior but claims that the Adventure features a washable and anti-tear technical fabric in black as well as scratch-resistant floor mats.

Mechanical upgraded are limited to the reinforced suspension that allows a maximum load of 445 kg. Fiat said that it also offers buyers of the Panda 4×4 Adventure the option of ordering the vehicle with just the front seats which increased the rear compartment space to 1,000lt.
