Fiat Doblò (Italy, 2010-present)

In 2009, Fiat presented the new and second generation of the Doblò MPV.

Compared to the previous version, of which approximately one million units were sold in all its variants, the new Doblò was revamped throughout with a new style, new engines and new technical features.

A new platform allows for more room for passengers (with a wheelbase of 2755 mm), a 790 litre boot (3200 litres with the seats folded down), lower CO2 emissions (129 g/km with the 1.3 Multijet 90 HP engine), a Bi-link suspension layout for comfort, standard safety equipment and highly modular interiors with folding, reclining seats.

With a central shield and side protection integrated into the front end combines protection. The streamlined tailgate emphasises the accessibility of the boot. Clear light clusters and expansive windows add a touch of elegance to the look of the new Doblò.

The interiors have been designed with functionality in mind. Solutions for the best use of on board space, such as a range of oddment compartments and flexible interiors with up to seven seats make Doblò a family and lleisure vehicle.

The Fiat Doblò is launched with four engine versions: a 95 HP petrol engine and three diesel Multijet engines (90, 105 and 135 HP).

The range is later complemented with the addition of a Natural Power engine with dual fuel system (petrol and methane) and another diesel engine with Dualogic robotized gearbox.

The entire engine range is Euro 5 compliant (except for the 1.3 Multijet - 90 HP). Standard equipment includes Start&Stop, a system which temporarily cuts off the engine when stopped in order to cut fuel consumption and emissions. All diesel engines are fitted with a DPF anti-particulate filter as standard.

The Doblò is equipped with a Bi-link rear suspension layout with variable component calibrations depending on specific variants. The Doblò implements electronic stability control devices, such ABS with EBD electronic brake force distribution and, above all, ESP complemented by a Hill Holder system (standard on the entire range) that assists the driver when starting on a slope, for consistent, predictable handling.

With crumple zones, front airbags and front side bags for head and chest protection (standard on all versions), the new Doblò offers passive safety.

The new Fiat Doblò also offers technical solutions and tech equipment to improve on board comfort: automatic climate control system with rear distribution, MP3 stereo with controls on steering wheel, cruise control, parking sensors and a Blue&Me hands-free system and integrated “Blue&Me TomTom” navigation system.
