Boosted by performance of its 6-speed automated manual MTA transmission, the Fiat Ducato has taken the coveted Which Motorcaravan Base Vehicle winner’s accolade for 3rd year running. Along with the rewards, the success of design is reflected in the marketplace – 2 out of every 3 motorhomes in Europe are designed and developed on Fiat Ducato base and there are over 400,000 Fiat Ducato motorhomes on the road in Europe alone. First class passenger transport has a clear-cut mission. It must carry you in complete safety and comfort and with real style, while getting you to your destination on time, ready and relaxed. Fiat Ducato is now even more comfortable, with a dynamic design and stronger performance, which sets it apart from the crowd.

The contemporary bold front includes tough wraparound bumper engineered in 3 sections which can be replaced individually, cutting potential repair costs. Smooth, stunning light clusters evoke aerodynamic style of high-speed train, whereas the angular strong rear with its side moldings and integrated bumper hint at its ready-for-anything character. Inside, functional features and elegant finishes set the tone for every journey, while the pullout step and large sliding side-door mean that even getting on board is effortless and efficient.

The Ducato’s interior provides you business class comfort, day after day. From the start everything feels car-like: the dash-mounted gear lever, the newly positioned steering wheel, intuitive, easily reached controls and crystal clear instruments, all contribute to a rewarding, relaxing drive. The driver seat is highly accommodating, with adjustable seat height, reach and back, which gives you 200mm of travel, over 20 different positions. Stronger performance, lower fuel consumption and effortless power fuse for making working life easier. Technical excellence is at the heart of machine, whichever engine you choose, with 3 new Multijet 16 valve Common Rail options, featuring electronic high pressure injection.
