Fiat Ducato Van

Discover the Ducato commercial vehicle range at Motorvogue in Norwich and Kings Lynn

The Fiat Ducato is one of the most versatile vehicles on the market with class leading payload, volume and axle loads combined with an extensive choice of wheelbase, length and height variants making it suitable for everything from carrying passengers, to making deliveries and refrigerated vehicles to camping.

Engines

Ducato has fully refreshed its engine range, developed to comply with Euro 6D-Final regulations, and by expanding the range on offer with Heavy-Duty type-approval. The new Multijet3 diesel engines, based on the new and exclusive H3 power architecture proprietary to Stellantis, are now in their third generation and build on their strengths, offering improvements in efficiency by reducing the weight (for the benefit of the load capacity) and by lowering consumption and CO2 emissions (by up to seven per cent, a best-in-class figure). Durability is also increased, as an essential characteristic of an engine dedicated to the heavy-duty usage typical of commercial vehicles and to comfort, courtesy of improved flexibility and lower noise than the previous generation of engines.

The Ducato is available in four levels of output (120hp, 140hp, 160hp and 180hp) with a new and improved six speed manual transmission – offered in all four levels and the much-appreciated nine speed automatic transmission, available in the 140hp, 160hp and 180hp variants. Available in the three highest levels of output, the heavy duty range with manual and automatic transmission completes the engines on offer, maintaining the same torque as the light duty models, already best-in-class with 450Nm of torque from the most powerful engine. Altogether, New Ducato provides customers with the choice of 13 different combinations in the line-up, to best adapt to all mission specifications.

Design

With a fresh and innovative design, the Ducato features a new front grille and full LED headlamps. The front now has a bolder look, featuring the new, iconic Fiat badge in its center and the grid, engine housing and skid plates have been redesigned. The factor that immediately attracts the attention is the design of the high-performance new lights with full-LED technology. The lights are divided into three sections, with the lowest dedicated to the LED light guide, which develops the signature characteristic of the Ducato. The three central lights come with a decidedly sporty look and offer 30 per cent more brightness than conventional halogen headlights. Finally, the upper section is dedicated to the direction indicators, the style of which has also been refreshed with an LED light guide with a slider switch, an effect much appreciated and used in cars and now available in a commercial vehicle.

Interior

The interior has been redesigned and focuses on technology and connectivity. A new all-digital configuration of the internal instruments, courtesy of the Full Digital Cockpit can immediately and clearly provide practical journey information and alerts – from the satnav to the driver assistance systems. The Technico trim level features the new 7-inch screen with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto connectivity, and with the Business the screen increased to 10-inch, a top-of-the-range full satellite navigation system including TomTom 3D maps. The refreshed interior design is embellished with a redesigned dashboard and steering wheel, along with a new gear lever, new door panels and automatic air conditioning controls.

Safety

The Ducato adds a great new offer of driver assistance and safety systems, aimed at improving the driving experience and at making the Ducato a safer environment for work or leisure. Indeed, the New Ducato is the first light commercial vehicle with level two autonomous driving, offering a full range of Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) both on the road and when parking. From speed limitation to braking control for unexpected obstacles such as pedestrians and cyclists, from road sign recognition to driver attentiveness monitoring, all the way to Adaptive Cruise Control with Stop&Go function, Lane Keep Assist and Traffic Jam Assist, the last of which maintains active control over the vehicle’s trajectory, taking into account traffic conditions. The combined use of the latter three ADAS enables the New Ducato to achieve level 2 autonomous driving, where the vehicle provides independent assistance while driving and during acceleration and braking. A unique result, never before achieved by a commercial vehicle.

The broad driver assistance and parking system specs are added to by the Digital Central Mirror, which digitally improves and shows the rear view to replace the relevant mirror, plus the ESC system with Cross-Wind Assist, Trailer Stability Control and Active Park Assist, the latter a semi-autonomous assistant for parallel and perpendicular parking manoeuvers.

With so many body types available, the Ducato is ready to move just about anything. The Range includes; Panelled Van, Crew Van, Window Van, Maxi Van, Maxi Crew Van, Maxi Window Van, Truck, 1-way Tipper, Double Cab and Double Cab 1-way Tipper.
