In Russia, Fiatovskaya Panda is few people familiar. Nevertheless, the A-class hatchback is very well sold in Europe, where they are very valued: a) economy, b) external compactness and c) total functionality. It remains only to add that the "bear" is very spacious, interestingly decorated, and the presence of 4x4 makes the only representative of the MINI-SUV segment. Just about the latest modification allocated to an independent model, we will now talk.
Fiat panda 4x4: photo exterior and salon
Externally distinguish an off-road panda from the non-road can be on eloquent plastic black colors. Matte panels must protect the body from scratches and make a movement along gravel, stones more sparing for paint and varnish.
Another "chip" is aluminum inserts in bumpers. By idea, these elements should emphasize the presence of standard engine crankcase protection and the use of optimized bottom layout. As the sole format of the wheels, a 15-inch casting with universal all-season tires dimension 175/65 is offered.
Inside the mini-SUV differences from the city panda even less. The designers played with the choice of fabric finishes, in an exclusive order, dressed up and without that avant-garde torpedo in green plastic. And on the central console there was an additional niche under the trifle. However, the interior before it was abounded by various boxes, shelves and pockets. It should be noted that for the superminy class, the car has a very spacious interior, and the layout of the seats allows you to sit at once with five passengers. Yes, and the luggage compartment in this regard will not pass - as many as 225 liters in a variable state, with folded seats of the second row - as much as 870 liters.
Clearance, sizes and other specifications
Off-road panda larger than its urban fellow
The crossover turned out to be a larger donor in all respects:
- length - 3686 mm (+ 33 mm);
- width excluding mirrors - 1672 mm (+ 29 mm);
- width, taking into account the mirrors - 1882 mm;
- height - 1605 mm (+ 54 mm);
- wheel base - 2300 mm;
- front track / rear - 1411/1408 mm.
As for the road lumen, which was increased due to the sharpening chassis under Offroad, then the Italians do not lead exact numbers. In fact, the increase does not exceed 1 cm - about 150 mm versus 140 mm in a regular panda.

Seat layout allows you to sit right five passengers
Under the hatchback hood, two variants of Fiat power units are installed. 0.9 TwinAir gasoline motor has a total of a pair of cylinders, but is equipped with a turbocharged and demonstrates a torque gain, in comparison with the previous 1.2 Fire, at the level of 40%. The return of the engine is 85 hp and 145 nm, and peak thrust is fed to the wheels at 1900 rpm. A good option for the city and highway, since the unit is supplied in a pair with "mechanics" for six gears. In the mode of driving "from the traffic light to traffic light, with a standard START-STOP system, the motor is content with 6 liters of" 95th "per 100 km, and the appetites fall to 4.3 l / 100 km on the highway. On average, there should be about 5 liters per hundred. To achieve the minimum flow of gasoline, you can choose the "ECO" mode, which limits the recovery of the engine within 77.6 hp. and 100 nm.
An alternative for lovers of maximum pickup and driving with a trailer - Turbodiesel 1.3 Multijet. It is more powerful, gives 95 "horses", and is able to pull the "baby" from any situation due to the maximum torque of 200 nm, which leads into the hands of the driver already at the speed of rotation of the crankshaft 1500 rpm. By the way, Newtonometers here are a third more than the engine of the previous generation. The fans of supercontamicity are not disappointed, because in the combined mode, the 35-liter tank is empty at a speed of 4.4 l / 100 km. The only drawback can be considered the 5-speed "mechanics", which lacks another position of the lever for high-speed driving on the highway. But everything overlaps the text on the "nizakh" and the elasticity of the motor under ground coating conditions.
The maximum speed with gasoline and diesel engines is the same and amounts to 166-167 km / h. The same applies to accelerating dynamics: from space up to 100 km / h Motors accelerate their carriers for 12 seconds. Automatic and robotic transmissions are not offered, while both power units operate exclusively with the full drive system.
Shortly after the release of the all-wheel drive version of Panda, the Fiat concern decided to further develop the topic of off-road hatchback talents and introduced the world Panda Cross. In technical terms it was the same "4x4" - four-wheel drive, "mechanics", half-dependent rear suspension. The only important difference was more solid clearance - 161 mm. The main part of the features of the "Cross" modification is reduced to stylistic research. The front and rear optics were changed, a massive radiator protection appeared in the front. At the same time, the SUV has a richer standard equipment that includes automatic climate control and TomTom navigation.
Test drive with off-road mileage
Unlike most small maidens, with the desire to issue themselves for the conquerors of "crosses", Panda 4x4 wants not to seem, but be an SUV. The main feature of this should be considered a permanent four-wheel drive, which in the "Auto" mode by electronics moves to the rear (slave) axis 2% of the torque. If the system fixes the insufficient grip of the wheels with the road, then 100% of the traction can be pulled out onto the feed. This technology is designed for automatic operation and patented under the name "torque on demand" or Torqueon Demand. In addition, there is an electronic locking of the rear differential (ELD) for movement in the sand, snow, liquid mud, mountainous area - is activated at a speed of up to 50 km / h with the "Off-Road" button for the lever of the PPC.
Thanks to such an "adult" stuffing, Panda is able to ride on any coating, and a certain lack of a road lumen is compensated by impressive angles of entry / congress - 21/20º (24/4º in Cross version). In addition, in the third generation, the exhaust system was integrated into the bottom (price of refusal from the spare wheel), which significantly improved the geometry of the Pentility. Also an important point is to consider the ultra-screwing first transmission on both engines, which replaces the role of "Penneika". True, the new Panda 4x4 remained without the original rear suspension on the longitudinal levers - her place was taken by a torsion beam modified under all-wheel drive. Front, as before, installed McPherson. If compared with the previous generation, the move has become more smooth, and the noise background has decreased in the cabin. But the real miracles should not be expected ¬- with an excessive ride on Buaeca, the short-terrestrial suspension breaks through, and a low-free bottom is here, then there rubs about stones and earth bars.
Price and completerates in Europe
In Russia, a full-wheel drive panda, as well as the usual version of the model, is not officially supplied. And no data on the upcoming changes of such policies is not. The main reason for the current situation is a low demand for compact, but notable cars that are more oriented on the Western buyer. As for European sales, at home the petrol Fiat Panda 4x4 costs from 17,850 € - by 6,550 euros more expensive monolvodny configuration. If there is a desire to acquire Turbodiesel 1.3, then the minimum price will be 18,800 €. However, Panda Cross is even more expensive - 19 950 € per motor 0.9 Twin Air and 20 900 € - 1.3 Multijet.

How much can be bought in Moscow
Due to the fact that the panda of the third generation is not available, only instances of the second generation are presented in the secondary market. You can buy such a car at a price of 170,000 rubles. The most accessible and common are gasoline versions with Motor 1.1 and 1.2, equipped with a manual transmission. FIAT PANDA with a "machine" meets less often and costs an average of 250-300 thousand rubles. All-wheel drive specs on sale are almost never found.

Compact sloping hood, comfortable doorways, high and smooth roof, powerful wheel arches profile, vertical feed. And how stylishly look neatly inscribed in the rear racks and vertically installed plaffones of dimensional lanterns.
The feed of the compact Italian hatchback was created taking into account the close streets of European cities. The vertical door of the luggage compartment, a fried bumper with an additional padding of unpacked plastic and a pair of light elements, the main headlights of head dimensional lighting took high headlights highly pierced the roof.
To protect the body from small damage not only the rear bumper is supplemented with plastic protection, wide linings are installed on the panels of the doors (there will be a paint coating from unrelated neighbors in the parking lot) - and this is an ordinary urban hatchback.
The body version of Fiat Panda 4x4 is additionally protected by cross-plastic body kit.

Inside the car, all solutions are aimed at achieving the most convenient and functional design of the cabin, for visible simplicity, the convenience of using all the car controls and the mass of seats for storing small things is hidden.

Places are enough for the location of people with increasing 190 cm. Of course, if you stop the rear passengers to put it, but if there is no high driver and passenger on the front row, the inhabitants of the second row will be comfortable. With one reservation - the third is clearly superfluous, the width of the salon will not allow, and the transmission tunnel is high.
As a bonus, the rear row is capable of moving along a 160 mm salon by increasing the volume of the luggage compartment from 225 to 260 liters. After folding the second row of seats to get a smooth floor of the trunk, alas, it would not work, but freight opportunities will increase to 870 liters.

Offering something different from competitors, such as Hyundai I10 and Skoda Citigo. Although some rivals cannot correspond to his individuality and style, they offer more modern design and additional space. And yet the latest model, according to the reviews of the owners, from Fiat Panda (2008) is distinguished by large sizes, an increase in the useful volume, as well as a roomy trunk, which is easily expanding thanks to the shifted rear seats.
With sufficiently comfortable ride, impeccable management and excellent Panda visibility is an excellent urban car. However, during long trips, insufficient engine performance may become tedious. The quality of the salon finishes does not always correspond to the style of more prestigious competitors, but the last generation of "Panda" for its reliability in the eyes of users has gained excellent reputation.
History of the model
FIATA has a long history of creating some of the most significant city cars. Models such as Topolino, Fiat 126 and, of course, the classic Fiat 500 secured the position of the Italian brand as a manufacturer of small small maps.
Back in 1980, the release of the original "Panda" brought a lot of new things. Developed by the legendary Giugiaro car for pennies offered basic transport opportunities and rightly earned a reputation as a reliable model, which further strengthened when a few years later, Fiat presented the All-wheel drive option. In different markets, the first generation of "Panda" was sold for 23 years.
Of course, the second generation that appeared in 2003 was not able to repeat it. Nevertheless, the car remained popular until the manufacturing company decided to focus its efforts on new small 3-door models FIAT 500 (2007). According to the reviews of the car owners, Fiat Panda reminded cars much larger and was similar to a mini-jeep, and its vertical rear dimensions are the same as VOLVO, although their use began in 1994
In 2011, Fiat introduced the third generation of the model. "Panda" began to look more expensive as a characteristic and fashionable car, although it has retained the height and square shape of the second generation. If the previous model was going to Poland, then the updated option began to be made at the Napleo factory, where Alfa Romeo Alfasud was produced.
Panda has a common base with Fiat 500 and Ford KA, and it is equipped with various diesel and gasoline 2-, 3- and 4-cylinder engines. The model has many worthy competitors in the classroom of urban cars, including Renault Twingo, Škoda Citigo, Suzuki Celerio and Hyundai I10.
Fiat offers a wide selection of salon finishes. Starting with Spartan modification of the initial level of ROR and ending with a more highly specificized Lounge option with such options such as alloy wheels and air conditioning. Easy Trim is located between them, and buyers can also choose the Trekking model with enhanced body facing.
Fiat Panda 4x4 is an off-road version with a complete drive, which is useful in difficult conditions. An even more extreme model of Panda Cross, which complements the previous increase in the road lumen and the descent control system.
Performance
According to the reviews of the car owners, Fiat Panda is perfectly coping with a ride within the city, but the motorway comes out for the lack of engine efficiency.
Riding in urban conditions is really excellent due to the high position of the driver, excellent visibility and lighting. The soft suspension easily copes with the irregularities of the road surface.
The "City" button on the dashboard facilitates the steering - so much that you can easily drive the car with one finger, without difficulty, sinking into narrow drives. Nevertheless, the system causes a sense of removal, so it is better to save it for parking.
The characteristics of Fiat Panda, according to the reviews of the owners, provide good control on the road, but, unfortunately, the engine does not always turn out to be height. Its insufficient expansion gives an advantage to such rivals as Hyundai I10. And almost identical urban trio Skoda Citigo, Seat Mii and Volkswagen Up! Have an explicit advantage at longer trips, especially compared to more accessible FIAT versions with a gasoline engine. In this regard, Diesel "Fiat Panda" reviews of owners praise, but, unfortunately, it is only available complete with the most expensive finish of Panda Trekking modification 4x4.
Engines
The technical characteristics of FIATA-Panda, according to the reviews of the owners, are largely determined by the power plant. The model range of engines includes 2 gasoline and 1 diesel. 0.9-liter 2-cylinder gasoline twinair with a capacity of 84 liters. from. is the most interesting choice. The motor not only provides the best performance, but also makes a pleasant rockness when it is accepted for work.
Although TwinAir is the fastest engine in the Fiat Panda line, but you should not expect stunning results. It allows you to accelerate to 100 km / h in 11.2 s and develop the maximum speed of 177 km / h. The turbocharger on medium revolutions provides greater power than other line engines. However, the efficiency of the motor is far from the official indicators declared by the manufacturer.
Gasoline engine with a capacity of 68 liters. from. He experiences maximum loads and on the motorway sounds tall. It is rather slow and accelerates to 100 km / h for 14.2 s, so users do not recommend choosing this version.
There is a 1.3-liter diesel Multijet with a capacity of 94 liters. from. Although it provides greater power and torque than TwinAir, it has a much smaller range of revolutions and, therefore, for a couple of tenth seconds, a slower overclocking up to 100 km / h. It barely has enough for overtaking, and on the highway, the engine is a reasonably effective low cruising speed. He is simply not as attractive as Panda TwinAir.
Transmission
Basically, the model is equipped with manual 5- and 6-speed gearboxes. Some modifications such as TwinAir Turbo are supplied with Dualogic transmission, which can be used both in manual mode and as an automaton. According to reviews, Fiat Panda with manual control to switch gear requires simple lever movements back and forth. The selection of transmission and clutch is made using an electronic control system and hydraulics, so there is no clutch pedal. Robot "Fiat Panda" Reviews of the car owners are called traditional, but with the advantage of fuel economy, which is usually provided by manual gearbox.
Fuel consumption, CO2 emissions and operating costs
All engines of the Fiat Panda series, according to car owners, promise impressive fuel economy indicators, but the 1.3-liter Multijet diesel engine comes out to first place, requiring 3.9 liters per 100 km of run. It highlights 104 g / km CO 2, which, unfortunately, exceeds preferential norms.
0.9-liter gasoline model TwinAir in the UK is released from road tax, as 99 g of carbon monoxide is 1 km away. The motor also claims 4.4 l / 100 km fuel consumption, although, according to user reviews, it will be difficult to approach this indicator in the real world. This should not be a serious problem, given the small mileage of small cars like "Panda", and then a slight decrease in efficiency that sow some drivers is a reasonable fee for the attractive TWINAIR character.
The last from the point of view of performance engine in a ruler, a 1.2-liter gasoline engine, with a financial point of view looks more attractive. It claims only 5.2 l / 100 km and highlights quite a lot of carbon dioxide (119 g / km). Nevertheless, in the basic decoration, it costs 20% cheaper than the most inexpensive model TwinAir Easy.
The price advantage of the 1,2-liter variant is reduced by roughly twice as compared to the modifications of one level of the interior trim, which complicates the choice in its favor. And yet, users tend to twinair, because the pleasure that gives riding with it compensates for all losses.
All engines benefit from efficient and economical technology, which stops the motor at idle, so Panda will not be frequent guest of refueling stations.
Insurance
Standard Fiat Panda versions belong to the insurance group rating from 2 to 7, so buyers should not have problems with inexpensive policies. Nevertheless, some competitors, such as Škoda Citigo, are available with the insurance of the 1st group, which can be attractive to those who buy a car for the first time.
Depreciation
When the urban car sector exploded from the proposals of competitors, traditionally strong players began to weaken weaken. Used "Fiat" never enjoyed in great demand. However, given the low initial cost, the depreciation will not be too big. According to experts, after 3 years, Fiat will retain 42.7% of its initial price.
Interior, Design and Technology
Fiat Panda Reviews of owners call a pretty choice in the city car market. He has a more attractive appearance than a slightly conservatively decorated Volkswagen Up! and standard Kia Picanto. For many owners, the design of the model was a decisive factor. The height, bold details and an attractive mixture of straight and curved lines are definitely stand out against the background of competitors.
The interior continues from the appearance of the car and is distinguished by many designer square forms with rounded corners. A short toy style shift lever and bright fabrics contribute to the fun character of the model.
Although the interior was much improved since the "Fiat Panda" (2008), the reviews of the owners suggest that some materials from the point of view of quality seem too cheap and do not correspond to Volkswagen Up!, Seat Mii and Škoda Citigo.
The range of the model has 4 interior trim levels: Pop, Easy, Lounge and Trekking. Cheap options look a little cheap with their 14-inch steel wheels, but in the standard version they have electrified front windows and a CD player with MP3 support.
The average Easy models are equipped with a remote central locking and air conditioning, as well as a set of roof rails, which, of course, adds a car a little effect.
Lounge options are more stylish, with cast discs and fog lights. Meanwhile, 15-inch alloys, ESP, help system at the mount, as well as the Traction Plus and a bold exterior lining, which ensures a much greater visual presence, appeared in the Panda Trekking version.
Navigation, stereo and infotainment system
Even the initial level of POP finishing comes with an audio system with 4 speakers, a CD player and MP3 compatibility.
Easy Trim already offers 6 speakers, and the Trekking Top Range model adds the Blue & Me setting, providing a Bluetooth connection of a smartphone with a TomTom navigation device. In addition, the car is equipped with steering controls, which on other modifications are an additional option.
Practicality, comfort and space for download
Thanks to its vertical position and angular forms of Fiat Panda, according to the reviews of car owners, it seems more than it really is. This is definitely far from a dense packaging of the predecessor.
With a high linte of the roof, the car seems filled with air, and visibility is comprehensive. Despite the fact that there is enough space ahead, the steering wheel is configured only in height, and on most of the models you need to specify an additional Flex Pack package to get the height adjustment on the driver's seat.
Flex Pack also adds a valuable back folding seat, a luggage grid and a folding table, and, which is unusual, can be selected between the 2- and 3-seater configuration for the rear row with the ratio between the width of the seats 50:50 or 60:40.
The interior of Fiat Panda, reviews, is supplemented with convenient storage sites, including a large tray in front of the front seat passenger and several cup holders.
Dimensions
With a length of 3653 mm and a width of 1643 mm Panda almost identical to Hyundai i10, but 10 cm is longer than Volkswagen Up! And 20 cm - Toyota Aygo. For comparison: larger Fiat Punto Supermini has a length of 4065 mm.
Place for legs, heads and passenger space
The rear row of "Fiat Panda", according to reviews, it seems a little cheap, but it slides back and forth, allowing you to form more space for legs or baggage. Fiat Panda square shape means that passengers have enough space for recreation. Four adults can squeeze into a car with reasonable comfort, but Troim on the back row will be closely, as in any urban small car. The place for the feet will also be a problem for adults.
Trunk.
Although Panda's salon and seems spacious, only 225 l luggage is placed in the luggage, which is 26 l less than Škoda Citigo can take. You can move the rear row ahead to form 260 l volume, but it will deprive the passengers of the place. Also, it's a little annoying that for this separate seat you have to pay extra, but in the rest of the trunk is quite practical, the door behind the back is widely open, and the baggage has to move only through the low barrier.
Reliability and security
Fiat Panda received only 4 stars in Euro NCAP tests, which disappoints in the market, where most newcomers have a full 5-star rating. One of the reasons for this is that the ESP at the time of the assessment at the end of 2011 was further suggested, but this problem was immediately solved, and in the beginning of 2012, the function became standard for all models.
Adult passengers and children in tests are gaining 82% and 63%. For comparison: Renault Twingo estimates - 78 and 81%, Hyundai i10 - 79 and 80%, and Volkswagen Up! - 89 and 80%.
Over the years, Fiat has tried to get rid of his reputation to the creator of passenger cars with low quality assembly and low reliability, and "Panda" does not seem as long as its direct competitors. But since the car is relatively simple from a technical point of view, not so much of what could go wrong, and this moment, apparently, was confirmed by strong estimates in the survey of drivers satisfaction AUTO Express Driver Power 2015.
From the 200 best models "Fiat Panda" in the category of reliability, ranked 52nd, and in terms of assembly quality - 88th. For low operating costs, the car was estimated at the 20th. He got the middle score almost in all indicators, except for the comfort of the seats, where the model took only the 170th place.
Guarantee
Fiat Panda Reviews of the car owners praise for the presence of a 3-year warranty per 100 thousand kilometers of run, which is at the same level with most competitors. Nevertheless, Kia Picanto and Hyundai I10 leave it in the shade, offering 7-year-old packages for 160 thousand km of run and 5-year-old without restrictions, respectively. Toyota Aygo comes with a 5-year warranty for 160 thousand km.
Service
Fixed price for Fiat Panda, according to owners, allows you to distribute service costs every month. Prices vary depending on the run and use, but they are competitive in relation to other city cars.

Review content:
Compact city cars for a long time did not take root in Russia, giving way to more voracious and overall neighbors "on the workshop". However, the rapid increase in the number of machines and the rise in fuel prices made their "black" case, forcing Russians to revise their attitude to compact and more economical chambers. One of these cars is the Italian "Bear" Fiat Panda, whose history takes his beginning in 1980 for the last century.
For its more than 35-year-old history, the car ran around the world in the world in more than 7 million copies and managed to decline the fame of one of the most reliable, spacious and stylish Hatchbacks of A-Class. And let you not mislead a few anime-free appearance of new items, Fiat Panda 2017 is a serious, practical and fairly dynamic car that can satisfy the needs of most residents of the metropolis. In comparison with the predecessor, the machine increased in the dimensions, received a more recent exterior and an upgraded salon, which has become even more "adults" and ergonomic.
Appearance Fiat Panda 2017
The official debut of the third generation Fiat Panda, which received a number of external improvements, but who retained the general style of the model, took place at the end of 2011 in Frankfurt. The form of the noveltples can be described as a rectangle with rounded faces, which has positively affected the hotel capacity.
The facial part of the body is represented by neat and friendly optics of head light, stylish strips of running lights, as well as a massive bumper, in the central part of which a practical oval air intake is located, and in the edges - small taman. Character, the car adds a relief hood, plastic inserts that protect the paintwork from damage and unique wheels R14-15.
The car profile pleases the eye with large doorways, massive wheel arches, a flat linen of the roof and square windows, neatly inscribed in the rear door racks.
The back of the body is represented by vertical overall lights placed in the rear racks, a large-fifth door and a laconic rear bumper, under which the compact exhaust system is hidden.
External dimensions of the urban hatchback are:
- Length - 3.653 m;
- Width - 1.643 m (1.882 m with side mirrors);
- Height - 1.551 m.
- Length of the wheelbase equals 2.3 m.
Interior design Panda.
Salon Fiat Panda is stylish and comfortable. The front panel bribes with its unusual design and practicality - which is only worth the open regiment, which is right in front of the front passenger, under which there was also a place for a fairly spacious glove.
The driver's seat is represented by a stylish dashboard, represented by three square well wells, and almost the same square multifunctional steering wheel. At the top of the central torpedo, there is a color display of the Uconnectt multimedia system, and right under it a pair of duct deflectors and an audio and information system control unit.
The picture is completed with a stylish and original microclimate control unit and located on a small "lip" knob of the gearbox and the button controlling the power windows.
The quality of materials, like fitting the interior parts, at the height and, given the class of the car, does not cause any complaints. Separate attention deserves the possibility of choosing one of the four colors of torpedo and door cards, as well as several types of seat upholstery.
The front seats have a good noticeable lateral support and a wide range of adjustments that make it easier to accommodate a person to anyone and increase under 190 cm.
The seats of the second row in theory can accommodate three saddles, but due to the high transmission tunnel and the small width of the car here is preferable to two passengers.
A pleasant bonus was the possibility of longitudinal movement of a second-row sofa (maximum of 160 mm), which allows to increase the margin of the trunk from 225 to 260 liters. If necessary, it is possible to fold the backs of the rear seats (60:40) and get up to 870 liters of loading space, however, it is not necessary to count on the smooth floor.
For transportation of long-term producer, the manufacturer has provided the possibility of folding the backrest of the front passenger seat, which allows you to transport objects with a length of over 2 meters. We also note that there are 14 different niches and pockets in the cabin to accommodate small things, and this is not counting the folding tables located in the backs of the front sediments.

Test Drive Fiat Panda 2017:
Fiat Panda is the legendary three- or five-door four-seater Class A hatchback, is manufactured by the Fiat concern since 1980. Since 2011, the third generation of the car is produced, and according to tradition since 2013, it is planned to produce the All-wheel drive version of Panda, which will be replaced by the entire second generation version.
Fiat Panda 4x4 third generation was shown at the Paris Salon in October 2012. And now there has been information that allows you to make certain conclusions about the exterior, the interior and the technical characteristics of the new Southwestroom produced in Europe.
The exterior of the "All-wheel drive panda" of the third generation, in general outlines, is practically no different from the version of the usual hatchback - the same type of body, which allows you to attribute the model rather not to two-blank hatchbacks, but to three-volume minivans. The universalism and erasing of the faces between classes can be traced in the design of the "Italian bear". The main difference is that to protect the body of a new sortier, during its operation in difficult road conditions, the CENTRO STILE FIAT designers have developed "body kit" throughout the perimeter of the machine.
In addition to the traditional coloring, which is 4x2, the off-road "Italian bear" will have two unique body colors. The first is Toscana Green (green metallic). The car with such a color looks like Soviet Army UAZ 469 ("Bobik") and is clearly designed for men. Second color - Sicilia Orange (pastel orange). This color is for women, bright, clockwork and cheerful, attracting attention. We also note the presence of aluminum inserts that complement the overall picture.
The interior of the Panda 4x4 of the third generation is also practically no different from the monolrode version. We only note the new green color in the interior decoration (for example, the green frame around the front panel), the presence of a large compartment for storing various small items. Also different seats fabric, which will be performed in three versions (green, beige and orange). When finishing doors, skin inserts are used.
Specifications.The main difference of this modification of "4x4" from the predecessors and the version "4x2" is the presence of the "Torque On Demand" system (four-wheel drive). This non-permanent drive system is used for the first time (Panda 2 4x4 climbing used connected four-wheel drive). The Torque on Demand system is based on the distribution of thrust and electronic imitation of the differential blocking, has two differentials and electronic coupling control. In other words, the electronic control unit analyzes the vehicle signals and automatically distributes a traction force in equal shares on the front and rear axle, or proportionally depending on the clutch parameters with the road surface.
A six-speed mechanical transmission with downstream will be installed on the 3rd generation.
For FIATA panda 3 4x4, it is supposed to use two types of engines that are installed on version 4x2:
- The first engine is an excellent proven gasoline twin-cylinder U-shaped twinair Turbo, a volume of 0.9 liters and a capacity of 85 "horses". A feature of this engine is the simultaneous movement of the pistons in one direction. The average fuel consumption is 4.5 liters per 100 kilometers.
- The second engine is a diesel engine 1.3 Multijet II, a volume of 1.3 liters and a capacity of 75 "horses". This engine is used on Fiat cars since the end of 2009, has a fixed turbine geometry, a diesel particulate filter that is located in close proximity to the power plant. 1.3 Multijet II fully complies with Euro 5 standards.
The START / STOP system is installed on both engines, which reduces the engine speed when braking and move at low speed, switching to a neutral transmission transmission.
The new Fiat Panda 4x4 in the standard configuration will be installed the ESC (Electronic Stability Control) car (Electronic Stability Control) system, together with the ELD differential electronic system (Electronic Locking Differential). Due to driving in difficult road conditions (snow, ice, dirt and others) will be more comfortable and manageable. If the clutch of the wheel with a road surface is lost, the ELD system distributes traction forces on those wheels that have the best clutch coefficient with the roadpapers. Moreover, the system operates both automatically and in manual, the button is located directly beyond the gear lever. We also note that the ELD system works at a speed below 50 km / h.
It is assumed to install the cast fifteen-seamy discs, tire type - 175/65 R15 M + S.
Fiat Panda 3 in version 4 × 4 is slightly higher version 4x2 and has the following parameters:
- length - 3680 mm;
- width - 1670 mm;
- height - 1600 mm;
- wheel base - 2300 mm;
- distance between front wheels (front track) -1410 mm;
- the distance between the rear wheels (rear track) is 1400 mm.
The suspension here performs two main functions. The first function is to provide comfortable movement, as in version 2WD, the second function is to ensure high passability in full-road conditions. Therefore, the front suspension is a classic independent MacPherson, the rear suspension is a torsion beam, which has higher technical specifications than the rear semi-dependent suspension with a beam beam in the previous generation.
From additional equipment for Panda 4x4, we note the presence: climate control, electrical rear view mirror, central locking with remote control and head restraints in the rear seat.
There is no specific information about the price of new and configurations of the novelty.
