Fiat is injecting a dose of fun into the electric vehicle landscape with five exciting new EV concepts. These innovative designs, inspired by the iconic Fiat Panda city car, offer a playful glimpse into what the future of electric mobility might hold. The concepts will serve as inspiration for upcoming EV models slated to launch, starting with a new city car in July 2024, followed by a new model each year for three subsequent years. While U.S. availability remains uncertain, these concepts could influence future Fiat EVs destined for the American market.
Fiat has remained tight-lipped about the specifications of these concept cars. Detailed information likely won’t surface until the final production models are unveiled to the public.
Fiat City Car Concept
The first concept, the City Car, echoes the original Fiat Panda’s boxy silhouette with a two-door design. Its eye-catching pink tires and prominent pixel light design, reminiscent of the Hyundai Ioniq 5, are sure to turn heads. The interior, though likely impractical for production, boasts a modular dashboard and lounge chair-like seats, adding a touch of whimsical charm.
Fiat SUV Concept
Next up is a family-oriented SUV concept, featuring oversized wheels and a striking two-tone color scheme. Fiat envisions this model with EV, hybrid, and traditional gas-powered variants, although the ultimate powertrain lineup remains to be seen.
Fiat Camper Concept
The third concept, a Panda Camper, stands taller than the SUV, boasting all-terrain tires, a roof rack, an integrated ladder, and even an integrated windmill for power generation. This concept embraces a spirit of adventure and off-grid capability.
Fiat Pickup Truck Concept
The fourth concept, a Panda Pickup truck, features a compact cargo bed, a full-width tailgate, and removable headlights that can be relocated to the roof rack, adding a touch of versatility and practicality.
Fiat Hatchback Concept
Finally, Fiat introduces a sporty hatchback concept with a sleek fastback design, oversized wheels, a two-tone color scheme, and distinctive pixel tail lights.
While many of these concept features are unlikely to reach production, they offer a captivating preview of Fiat’s vision for the future of electric mobility. These playful designs highlight the potential for innovation and creativity within the EV segment, suggesting an exciting future for Fiat’s electric vehicle lineup.
