New Fiat Panda cars where prices are collected. "Fiat Panda": reviews from car owners, technical characteristics. Main production facilities

Offering something different from competitors such as the Hyundai i10 and Skoda Citigo. While some rivals can't match its personality and style, they offer more modern design and extra space. And yet, according to owners' reviews, the latest model from the Fiat Panda (2008) is distinguished by its larger size, increased usable volume, and a spacious trunk, which is easily expanded thanks to the sliding rear seats.

With a fairly comfortable ride, impeccable handling and excellent visibility, the Panda is an excellent city car. However, during long trips, the lack of engine performance can become tiresome. The quality of the interior trim does not always match the style of more prestigious competitors, but the latest generation of Panda has earned an excellent reputation in the eyes of users for its reliability.

Model history

Fiat has a long history of creating some of the most iconic city cars. Models such as the Topolino, Fiat 126 and, of course, the classic Fiat 500 cemented the Italian brand's position as a manufacturer of small runabouts.

Back in 1980, the release of the original Panda brought a lot of new things to the table. Designed by the legendary Giugiaro, the car offered basic transport capabilities for a pittance and rightly earned a reputation for reliability, which was further strengthened when Fiat introduced an all-wheel drive option a few years later. The first generation of Panda was sold in different markets for 23 years.

Of course, the second generation, which appeared in 2003, never managed to repeat this. However, the car remained popular until the manufacturer decided to focus its efforts on the new small 3-door Fiat 500 (2007) models. According to car owners, the Fiat Panda resembled much larger cars and looked like a mini-jeep, and its vertical tail lights were the same as those of the Volvo, although their use began in 1994.

In 2011, Fiat introduced the third generation of the model. The Panda began to look more expensive, as a distinctive and fashionable car, although it retained the height and boxy shape of the second generation. If the previous model was assembled in Poland, the updated version began to be produced at the plant in Naples, where Alfa Romeo Alfasud was previously produced.

The Panda shares a common base with the Fiat 500 and Ford Ka, and is equipped with a variety of diesel and petrol 2-, 3- and 4-cylinder engines. The model has many worthy competitors in the city car class, including Renault Twingo, Škoda Citigo, Suzuki Celerio and Hyundai i10.

Fiat offers a wide range of interior trims. Starting from the spartan modification of the entry-level Por and ending with the more highly specialized Lounge version with options such as alloy wheels and air conditioning. In between is Easy trim, and buyers can also choose the Trekking model with reinforced hull trim.

The Fiat Panda 4x4 is an off-road style option with all-wheel drive that comes in handy in challenging conditions. An even more extreme Panda Cross model is being released, which complements the previous one with an increase in ground clearance and a descent control system.

Performance

According to reviews from car owners, the Fiat Panda copes well with driving within the city, but on the highway the insufficient engine efficiency comes to the fore.

The ride in city conditions is truly excellent thanks to the high driving position, excellent visibility and lighting. The soft suspension easily copes with uneven road surfaces.

The "City" button on the dashboard makes steering easier - so much so that you can easily drive the car with one finger, squeezing into narrow passages without difficulty. However, the system does create a feeling of detachment, so it's best to save it for parking.

The characteristics of the Fiat Panda, according to reviews from owners, provide good control on the road, but, unfortunately, the engine is not always up to par. Its lack of refinement gives an advantage to rivals such as the Hyundai i10. And the almost identical urban trio of Skoda Citigo, SEAT Mii and Volkswagen up! have a clear advantage on longer journeys, especially compared to the more affordable petrol-powered Fiat versions. In this regard, the Fiat Panda diesel is praised by owner reviews, but, unfortunately, it is only available in conjunction with the most expensive Panda Trekking trim of the 4x4 modification.

Engines

The technical characteristics of the Fiat Panda, according to reviews from owners, are largely determined by the power plant. The engine range includes 2 petrol and 1 diesel. 0.9-liter 2-cylinder petrol TwinAir with 84 hp. With. is the most interesting choice. The motor not only provides the best performance, but also makes a pleasant rumble when it gets to work.

Although TwinAir is the fastest engine in the Fiat Panda line-up, don't expect amazing results. It allows you to accelerate to 100 km/h in 11.2 seconds and reach a top speed of 177 km/h. The mid-range turbocharger delivers more power than other engines in the range. However, the efficiency of the motor is far from the official indicators declared by the manufacturer.

Gasoline engine 68 hp. With. experiences maximum loads and sounds hysterical on the freeway. It is quite slow and accelerates to 100 km/h in 14.2 seconds, so users do not recommend choosing this version.

The 1.3-liter MultiJet diesel engine with 94 hp remains. With. While it makes more power and torque than the TwinAir, it has a much smaller rev range and is therefore a couple of tenths of a second slower to 100km/h. It's barely adequate for overtaking, and on the highway the engine gravitates toward a reasonably efficient low cruising speed. It's just not as attractive as the Panda TwinAir.

Transmission

Basically, the model is equipped with a manual 5- and 6-speed gearbox. Some modifications, such as TwinAir Turbo, are equipped with a Dualogic transmission, which can be used either in manual mode or as an automatic transmission. According to reviews, the manual Fiat Panda requires simple forward and backward movements of the lever to change gears. Gear selection and clutch engagement are done electronically and hydraulically, so there is no clutch pedal. Reviews from car owners call the Fiat Panda robot traditional, but with the advantage of fuel economy, which is usually provided by manual transmissions.

Fuel consumption, CO2 emissions and operating costs

All engines in the Fiat Panda series, according to car owners, promise impressive fuel economy figures, but the 1.3-liter MultiJet diesel comes out on top, requiring 3.9 liters per 100 km. It emits 104 g/km of CO 2, which, unfortunately, exceeds the preferential standards.

The 0.9-litre TwinAir petrol model is exempt from road tax in the UK as it emits 99g of carbon monoxide per kilometer. The engine also claims fuel consumption of 4.4 l/100 km, although, according to user reviews, it will be difficult to get close to this figure in the real world. This shouldn't be a major problem given the low mileage of small cars like the Panda, and the slight decrease in efficiency that some drivers will experience is a reasonable price to pay for the TwinAir's engaging nature.

The last engine in the range in terms of performance, the 1.2-liter petrol engine, looks more attractive from a financial point of view. It only claims 5.2L/100km and emits quite a bit of carbon dioxide (119g/km). However, in basic trim it costs 20% less than the least expensive TwinAir Easy model.

The price advantage of the 1.2-liter variant is roughly halved when comparing variants of the same trim level, making it a tough choice. And yet, users are leaning towards TwinAir, because the pleasure it gives to ride with it compensates for all the losses.

All engines benefit from efficient and fuel-efficient technology that stops the engine at idle, so the Panda won't be a frequent visitor to petrol stations.

Insurance

Standard versions of the Fiat Panda have an insurance group rating of 2 to 7, so buyers shouldn't have any problems finding affordable policies. However, some rivals such as the Škoda Citigo are available with Group 1 insurance, which may be attractive to first-time car buyers.

Depreciation

As the city car sector exploded with competitive offerings, the traditionally strong players began to wane. Used Fiats have never been in great demand. However, given the low initial cost, the depreciation won't be too much. According to experts, after 3 years Fiat will retain 42.7% of its original price.

Interior, design and technology

Owner reviews call the Fiat Panda a nice choice on the city car market. It has a more attractive appearance than the slightly conservatively styled Volkswagen up! and the standard Kia Picanto. For many owners, the design of the model was the deciding factor. The height, bold details and eye-catching blend of straight and curved lines certainly stand out from the competition.

The interior continues from the car's exterior and features many designer square shapes with rounded corners. The short, toy-style gear lever and colorful fabrics contribute to the model's fun character.

Although the interior has improved greatly since the Fiat Panda (2008), owner feedback suggests that some of the materials feel too cheap in terms of quality and are not up to par with the Volkswagen up!, SEAT Mii and Škoda Citigo.

The model range includes 4 trim levels: Pop, Easy, Lounge and Trekking. Low-end variants look a little cheap with their 14-inch steel wheels, but they have electrified front windows and an MP3-capable CD player as standard.

The mid-level Easy models are equipped with remote central locking and air conditioning, as well as a set of roof rails, which certainly adds a bit of oomph to the car.

The Lounge variants are more stylish, with alloy wheels and fog lights. Meanwhile, the Panda Trekking version adds 15-inch alloys, ESP, Hill Start Assist as well as Traction Plus and bold exterior cladding for a much greater visual presence.

Navigation, stereo and infotainment system

Even the entry-level Pop trim comes with a 4-speaker audio system, CD player, and MP3 compatibility.

The Easy trim already offers 6 speakers, while the top-range Trekking model adds a Blue & Me setup, providing a Bluetooth smartphone connection to your TomTom navigation device. In addition, the car is equipped with steering controls, which are an additional option on other versions.

Practicality, comfort and loading space

Thanks to its vertical position and angular shape, the Fiat Panda, according to reviews from car owners, seems larger than it actually is. It's certainly a far cry from the tight packaging of its predecessor.

With a high roofline, the car appears filled with air and visibility is all-round. While there's plenty of room up front, the steering wheel is only height-adjustable, and most models must be specified with the optional Flex Pack to get height adjustment in the driver's seat.

The Flex Pack also adds a valuable rear folding seat, cargo net and folding table, and, unusually, you can choose between 2- and 3-seat configurations for the rear row with a 50:50 or 60:40 seat width ratio.

The interior of the Fiat Panda, according to reviews, is complemented by convenient storage spaces, including a large tray in front of the front passenger and several cup holders.

Dimensions

At 3653mm long and 1643mm wide, the Panda is almost identical to the Hyundai i10, but is 10cm longer than the Volkswagen up! and 20 cm - Toyota Aygo. For comparison, the larger Fiat Punto Supermini is 4065 mm long.

Legroom, headroom and passenger space

The Fiat Panda's rear row, according to reviews, seems a little cheap, but it slides back and forth to create more legroom or luggage space. The Fiat Panda's boxy shape means passengers have plenty of room to relax. Four adults can squeeze into the car in reasonable comfort, but three in the back row will be cramped, as in any city runabout. Legroom will also be an issue for adults.

Trunk

Although the Panda's cabin appears spacious, luggage space is limited to just 225 liters, which is 26 liters less than what the Škoda Citigo can accommodate. You can move the rear row forward to create 260 liters of volume, but this will deprive passengers of legroom. It's also a little annoying that you have to pay extra for this split seat, but otherwise the boot is quite practical, the rear door opens wide and you only have to throw luggage over a low barrier.

Reliability and safety

The Fiat Panda received just 4 stars in Euro NCAP tests, which is disappointing in a market where most newcomers have a full 5-star rating. One reason for this is that ESP was an optional extra at the time of evaluation back in late 2011, but this issue was immediately resolved and the feature became standard on all models in early 2012.

Adult passengers and children score 82% and 63% in tests. For comparison: Renault Twingo scores 78 and 81%, Hyundai i10 scores 79 and 80%, and Volkswagen up! - 89 and 80%.

Over the years, Fiat has struggled to shake off its reputation for making passenger cars with poor build quality and unreliable reliability, and the Panda doesn't appear to be as durable as its direct competitors. But because the car is relatively simple from a mechanical standpoint, there's not much that could go wrong, a point that appears to have been borne out by the strong scores in the 2015 Auto Express Driver Power satisfaction survey.

Of the 200 best models, the Fiat Panda took 52nd place in the reliability category, and 88th in build quality. The car was rated 20th for its low operating costs. It received an average score in almost all areas except seat comfort, where the model ranked only 170th.

Guarantee

Reviews from car owners praise the Fiat Panda for having a 3-year warranty for 100 thousand kilometers, which is on par with most competitors. However, the Kia Picanto and Hyundai i10 leave it in the shadows, offering 7-year 160,000 km and 5-year unlimited packages respectively. Toyota Aygo comes with a 5-year, 160,000 km warranty.

Service

The fixed price for the Fiat Panda, according to owner reviews, allows you to distribute maintenance costs on a monthly basis. Prices vary depending on mileage and usage, but are competitive with other city cars.

Low fuel consumption (there is an economy mode for driving around the city) with good dynamics, high maneuverability (extremely light steering wheel) and good visibility. Warms up quickly in cold weather. The air conditioning works well in hot weather. Convenient to park. An excellent car for a woman, especially when she does not have much experience in driving a car. Advantages of the car: Disadvantages: Fuel consumption, maneuverability, stability on the highway, visibility. Disadvantages: Small trunk. Very good for novice drivers.

Fiat Panda, 2008

Today I sold my Funtik - my best friend! But what to do... I had to. Although, from the very first day of purchase in April 2009, it NEVER failed! No matter what others say, my Funtik started up in winter at -35 degrees 2-3 times, when others were standing still; never got stuck in mud or snow; convenient and comfortable (albeit a small interior); economical to use! With timely maintenance, this car would never have broken down! Polish assembled car. The only negative of this car is the small trunk. Now I buy another Fiat instead of a Panda - Fiat Doblo Panorama. I hope that he will also become a good friend to me!

Fiat Panda, 2007

I learned to drive after getting my license. I liked it at Pandochka - it has everything and a little more. A purely female view of the car: It uses little gasoline - I rarely fill it up. The trunk is excellent - all purchases for a large family fit. In cold weather it started perfectly, but it needs to be warmed up late in the evening when temperatures are below 20 degrees (experienced advised), but in the morning I proudly drove the children to school under the sad looks of hapless drivers. For two years there was no repair at all. The robotic gearbox is even a plus: my husband drives with great pleasure, overtaking everyone, in a manual transmission - I like the quieter driving in an automatic transmission. The car is obedient to drive.

Fiat Panda, 2007

I bought a 2008 car in December, and in January frosts began above -20 degrees and they immediately took it to the service station because oil leaked from the transmission, the gearbox was robotic. I’ve been suffering for 3 years now: as soon as it’s cold, the car won’t move, and the service cost is 1.5 thousand rubles. for work and 800 rubles. for oil and one phrase: “The car is not adapted to Russian frosts.” This is the only thing that has not satisfied me in this car for 3 years. And the Fiat Panda is a good car.

The Fiat Panda is a city car that first appeared back in 1980. Due to its compactness, it is especially popular in its homeland, Italy. Its second generation was published in 2003. In 2004, the Panda was voted European Car of the Year. The second generation Panda (factory index 169) differs from its predecessor in the most dramatic way.

This is, first of all, a completely new technical filling; in addition, it has a very expressive appearance, which combines the features of a mini-MPV and a mini-SUV. Of course, such cars are characterized by a rather narrow four-seater interior, but the Panda provides a high seating position and excellent visibility. The rear row of seats moves back and forth by 160 mm and consists of two folding halves (optional), which increases the possibility of transforming the interior. The high roof adds headroom. In Russia, the car was offered in versions with 1.1 and 1.2 liter gasoline engines with a manual transmission.

The hatchback was offered in Active and Dynamic trim levels. In the first case, the Panda base has only the most minimal set of equipment: halogen headlights, heated rear window and rear wiper, tilt-adjustable steering column. Options include air conditioning, front fog lights, electric mirrors, roof rails, leather steering wheel, central locking, power windows, CD/MP3 player. Instead of a solid rear seat, it was possible, for an additional fee, to purchase a car with two separate rear seats, which fold in parts and, if necessary, are removed altogether; The possibility of their longitudinal adjustment is also provided. More expensive equipment includes standard air conditioning, electric mirrors and electric windows, and an improved set of security systems is attached to this. Options include a sunroof, parking sensors, and climate control.

In the basic version, the Fiat Panda for the Russian market is equipped with a 1.1 liter gasoline engine that develops a maximum power of 54 hp. (at 5000 rpm) and maximum torque of 88 Nm (2750 rpm). Maximum speed is 150 km/h. The hatchback does not accelerate to 100 km/h quickly - in 15 seconds. But the average gasoline consumption will be 5.7 l/100 km, while in the urban cycle the car consumes about 7.2 liters per 100 km, and in the suburban cycle - only 4.8 liters per “hundred”. The 1.2-liter engine in the Dynamic configuration has a power reserve of 60 hp. (at 5000 rpm), 102 Nm of torque (at 2500 rpm). It is capable of accelerating the car to a maximum speed of 155 km/h, and to “hundreds” - one second faster than the base engine. Average gasoline consumption is 5.6 l/100 km (in the urban cycle - 7.1 l/100 km, in the suburban cycle - 4.8 l/100 km). The fuel tank of the car holds 35 liters.

The front suspension of the Fiat Panda is independent, McPherson type. The rear is a semi-independent torsion beam. The hatchback has disc brakes at the front and drum brakes at the rear. The standard tire size is 155/80 R13 with a full-size spare wheel. The manufacturer's declared ride height is 120 mm. Fiat Panda is distinguished by very compact overall dimensions: body length 3538 mm, width 1578 mm, height 1540 mm. Wheelbase - 2299 mm. The minimum turning radius is only 4.55 m. Among other things, this small car is equipped with electric power steering with the Dualdrive system, which includes a city mode, which makes it convenient to maneuver in urban conditions - you can literally turn the steering wheel with one finger.

Of the safety systems in the basic configuration, Fiat Panda will only offer a driver's airbag. Options included a front passenger airbag and anti-lock brakes. The latter is included in the Dynamic package, and options include electronic stability control (ESP), traction control system (TCS), and hill start assist system (HAC). In EuroNCAP crash tests, the car received satisfactory results - three stars out of five for adult safety, two stars out of five for child safety and one star out of four for pedestrian safety.

Fiat Panda owners highly appreciate its compactness and efficiency. Considering that the curb weight is only 860 kg, even the base engine’s power is sufficient for everyday use. The trunk has acceptable dimensions for a small car - its minimum volume is 206 liters, but by moving the rear row seats forward (if such a function is provided), you can increase the volume to 236 liters. With the rear seats folded down, it increases to 767 liters. Among the disadvantages of the Panda, owners name low ground clearance, a “wooden” interior and a low level of comfort. At the same time, used Pandas are inexpensive.

In 1980, Fiat began producing the three-door Panda hatchback at the Turin plant. It was a miniature, extremely simple in design, practical and inexpensive little car, which immediately became popular with buyers. Initially, the model range consisted of two modifications: the Panda 30 was equipped with a two-cylinder 650 cc air-cooled engine, and the Fiat Panda 45 was equipped with a 900 cc water-cooled four. In 1982, the Panda 34 version appeared with an 840 cc engine. cm.

Licensed production of the model was organized in Spain under the brand name. And for lovers of open cars, they made a version with a removable fabric roof top.

In 1983, an all-wheel drive version of the hatchback appeared. Under the hood there was a liter engine with a capacity of 970 hp. s., and the gear ratios in the gearbox were selected so that the first gear served as a reduction gear, and the second gear in terms of the gear ratio corresponded to the first on conventional versions.

The first restyling of the model was carried out in 1986. Instead of the outdated 650 cc engine, they began installing a 770 cc engine on the Panda. cm and power 34 l. s., and instead of the 900 cc - a liter engine with a capacity of 45 or 50 hp. With. A version with a 1.3-liter diesel engine (37 hp) also appeared in the lineup. Other innovations include a modified rear suspension design.

In 1991, the Fiat Panda was again restyled. The power units were modernized, and the Selecta continuously variable variator began to be offered as an alternative to a manual transmission. In 1992, on the 4x4 version, the liter engine was replaced with a new one, 1.1 liter.

Starting in 1996, the outdated Panda gradually left the markets of European countries, but nevertheless, its production in Italy continued until 2003. A total of 4.5 million first-generation cars were produced.

2nd generation, 2003


In 2003, the second generation of the Fiat Panda model went on sale. It was a compact (3.5 meters long) five-door hatchback with a high roof. A year later, an all-wheel drive version of the Panda 4×4 Climbing appeared with increased ground clearance and a body kit made of unpainted plastic.

The car was equipped with four-cylinder engines 1.1 and 1.2 with a power of 54 and 60 hp. With. respectively, and the 1.2-liter unit had a version capable of running on both gasoline and gas. In 2006, the range was supplemented with a 100-horsepower 1.4-liter engine. The 1.3 Multijet turbodiesel developed a power of 69–75 hp. With.

In 2006, Fiat filed a lawsuit against the Chinese manufacturer Great Wall, which copied the Panda design when creating its subcompact car. In 2008, the court ruled that the Chinese were wrong and banned the export of the Peri model to Europe.

Serial production of the second Panda (they were made only at a plant in Poland) continued until 2011. This model was officially supplied to the Russian market.

Fiat is a proven car manufacturer that has earned trust in the Russian market and is also in demand among buyers. The new 2020 Fiat Panda has been on sale in Russia for a long time.

The manufacturer Fiat tries to update its car lines every season in order to always keep up with the times and the latest technologies. This season was no exception, because in Russia the start of sales of the Fiat Panda 4×4 2021 model has begun. If you specify the timing of the start of sales, then they fall at the end of summer 2020, therefore, the car can already be purchased at the showroom.

Briefly about the new model

At first it may seem that the Fiat Panda 4x4 is similar to some predecessor models, because when comparing photos of many cars of this brand, one cannot help but note some similar features, such as dynamism, compactness, and modern design.

However, having taken a closer look at the Fiat Panda, we see that the model stands out from the crowd with bright headlights, as well as a modernized body cover.

Description of appearance

When a potential buyer enters a showroom, he first of all pays attention to the appearance of the cars. Therefore, external characteristics play an important role. Looking at the photo of the latest modification of the Fiat Panda, released in 2020, we can say that this is a car that attracts attention.

This car is medium in size. Reviews from car owners indicate that the Fiat Panda is convenient to drive both on the busy streets of a metropolis and in the countryside. Its dimensions make it possible to go out into nature with your family and take everything you need with you, since it has an excellent new body that looks compact, but at the same time is very roomy.

Also look at and.

Buyers should also be attracted by the possibility of choosing body color, which was not the case in previous modifications. The headlights have a modern design and are able to illuminate the space over a fairly large distance. Speaking of wheels, we note that the fiat panda has powerful alloy wheels that look reliable and durable. With them the car will definitely not lose control! Another advantage is that after the purchase the owner is able to perform tuning on his own, improving the appearance of the car.

Description of the internal device

Of course, before you buy a Fiat Panda, released in 2020-2021, you need to sit in its cabin. The appearance can be very attractive, however, if sitting inside the car makes you feel uncomfortable, this is not your option.

The manufacturer of this model made sure that the potential buyer, once inside the cabin, became the owner of the car. Reviews say that the Fiat Panda looks small on the outside, but is quite spacious inside. According to the latest news, the car manufacturer has changed the seat technology, which is why they have become even softer and more comfortable. With these seats, even the longest trip will be comfortable.

By 2020, the manufacturer has made sure that the cabin is as comfortable as possible not only for the driver, but also for passengers. That is why the distance between the front and rear row seats has been increased, so that even the tallest passengers have somewhere to put their feet. The fairly high price of the new Fiat Panda is also justified by the fact that its dashboard is improved. Now it has become much more convenient to place various useful accessories on it, such as a navigator, DVR, etc.

Inside, the model is equipped according to the latest requirements, with built-in devices such as cruise control, which can greatly facilitate driving the car. However, how fully the car will be equipped will depend on the configuration.

Machine Specifications

The most important thing about the Fiat Panda is the technical characteristics it has. The manufacturer has created various configurations of this car, differing in engine and control types. These variations of the Fiat Panda differ not only in technical characteristics, but also in cost.


Let's look at the options that can be purchased in our country:

  • The predecessor of the car we are considering today is a model released in 2003. It has two variations: Active and Dynamic. Speaking of whether it consumes diesel, gasoline is a gasoline engine type. Power varies from 54 to 60 horsepower, front-wheel drive in both cases. Fuel consumption per 100 km is low, it is approximately 5.7 - 5.4 liters. It depends only on whether you are driving in a city rhythm or on a country road;
  • If you decide to buy a Fiat Panda 4x4, which, according to the latest news, will be one of the best-selling Fiat models in 2020, then do not forget to watch several test drive videos. Its Climbing modification can be controlled either through an automatic transmission or through a manual transmission, depending on what is more preferable for the buyer. If you are looking for a model that runs on diesel, then this option is not suitable for you. After restyling, not only the appearance of the Fiat Panda has changed, but also its technical characteristics, for example, the tank volume has been increased, which allows you to go for a long time without refueling. The manufacturer has added the necessary accessories to the package, such as a tow bar. The trunk volume is about 260 liters.


Where to buy the model

If you are thinking about the question of where to buy a new Fiat Panda 4x4 2020 2021 in Moscow, St. Petersburg, Yekaterinburg, we are ready to help you:

The price in Russia for this model is approximately 330 thousand for a new car and 250 thousand for a used one.

Comparison with competing models

Before purchasing a car, you need to compare it with the offers existing on the market. This car is often compared to the Volkswagen Polo. Let's consider its pros and cons in comparison with our model.


Pros:

  • From the video test drive, we see that it copes well with various external conditions and bad weather;
  • the price is lower than the Fiat Panda 2020 2021 4x4;
  • Larger trunk volume, suitable for large families.
  • insufficient ground clearance (clearance), which is inconvenient on Russian roads;
  • Fuel consumption in city traffic is higher than that of the Fiat model.
Opinions from experienced amateurs

Evgeny Kovalev:

I decided to purchase this car after reading owner reviews on the Internet. I considered various options for a long time, but still settled on this one. I was attracted by the technical characteristics and spacious interior, but the price seemed high to me. I have been driving this 2005 model for over a year now, which I bought used, but the car is in good condition. There were no technical problems.
The Fiat Panda drives confidently, maneuverability is good, visibility and assembly are also decent. I'm happy with the purchase and recommend it to all Fiat fans.



Anna Gavrilyuk:

The price of the new Fiat Panda 4x4, released in 2020, surprised me and seemed unaffordable. That is why I chose the old version of the model, released in 2018. Great car for driving around the city. The assembly is also decent, the consumption is low, the trunk is spacious.
The driver's seat of the Fiat Panda is comfortable, there are all the most necessary options. As a driver with little experience, the car suits me perfectly. Very pleased with my choice. Perhaps over time I will buy a new model when the price drops a little.

Oleg Cheremnykh:

I have been a member of the Fiat club for quite some time now and have always been pleased with the quality of the cars; I recently thought about buying a new modification of the Panda model. However, it is quite expensive, so I am waiting for the prices to come down. Then it will be possible to purchase a car not in a showroom, but from hand, since it will be more profitable. Moreover, there are options that are quite good, even new ones at an affordable price, so a used Fiat Panda is also a great option.

Now take a look at and.
