This is powered by a 100kW / 136hp electric motor, and available with a choice of two battery packs: 50kWh or 75kWh. What about the Fiat E-Scudo electric van? Fiat badges them Multijet, but in fact they are original PSA Peugeot-Citroen BlueHDi units. 2.0-litre with 180hp with eight-speed automaticĪll are diesel, and all are shared with the existing vans.

But although Fiat is promising three body lengths, so far we’ve only been given confirmation of SWB and LWB variants for the UK, which are around 5.0m and 5.3m long, respectively. The single roof height is a relatively low 1.9m, which is good news for aerodynamic efficiency and accessing car parks. > The best medium vans What technical spec has been released? A situation that will only get worse when the next-generation of Volkswagen Transporter goes on sale in 2023/2024, as that will be based on the next-gen Ford Transit Custom. Perhaps more concerning is that with yet another model based on the same platform and technology, the medium van market continues to shrink in terms of genuine choice between models. Though some compensation is available via a load-through hatch in the bulkhead. However, compared with the Trafic-based Talento, the Scudo’s cab will be cramped – especially if you regularly carry three people up front – the driving position is poor, and the standard loading length not so impressive. What’s more, these Stellantis vans are good to drive, have smooth, powerful engines, and the fully electric models are top of the class at the moment. Top of the list is the high payload ratings they offer – up to as much as 1,400kg. Which means we know a lot of the positive points of this new model.

Is the new Fiat Professional Scudo good or bad news for customers?Īlthough Fiat still hasn’t released a huge amount of technical detail, we know a lot about the new Scudo’s sister vans. It may also be built at the Vauxhall plant in Luton in the future. The Scudo will be built in France, in the same factory as all the others. The Talento that’s being replaced here is based on the Renault Trafic, whereas the Scudo shares its foundations with the Citroen Dispatch, Peugeot Expert and Vauxhall Vivaro – all part of the Stellantis family – as well as the Toyota Proace.Īs soon as Fiat joined forces with PSA Peugeot-Citroen to form the Stellantis group of companies, we knew it was only a matter of time before it stopped selling the current Talento and started selling a new model based on the Stellantis platform. > SIgn-up for the Parkers Vans and Pickups newsletter Is this a surprise?
There will even be a 100% electric E-Scudo on sale alongside the traditional diesel models, and a passenger version that resurrects the Fiat Ulysse name. Prices start at £25,750 for diesel models and £35,720 for the all-electric E-Scudo variant, and they’re available to order now.Īs with the last Scudo, this new Fiat van is based on the same platform and technology as the latest mid-sized models from Peugeot and Citroen.Īvailable in three body lengths, and as a panel van, crew van and platform cab the new Fiat Scudo certainly offers buyers lots of choice. The Fiat Scudo is back, replacing the Fiat Talento as the firm’s medium van.
