, another world premiere for the third generation of the subcompact car, the Panda Natural Power.

Fiat Panda is the world's first car that is equipped with a two-cylinder turbo engine for natural gas and gasoline. The features of the new Panda also benefit the Panda Natural Power to better handling and more comfort.

Equipped with the newly developed, 80 hp two-cylinder 0.9 TwinAir Turbo Natural Power engine, the new Panda offers CO2 emissions of 86 g/km and a fuel consumption of 3.1 kg/100 km in the combined cycle. Both values refer to dribving in natural gas mode. The range is increased compared to the Classic Panda 1.4 Natural Power by 10 percent and the fuel tank corresponds with 35 liters approximately to that of the normal gasoline version.

The boot capacity remained with 200 liters virtually unchanged, compared to petrol and diesel variants of the Fiat Panda. The gas tanks have a capacity of approximately 12 kg (equivalent to 72 liters).

The two fuel supply systems (gas and petrol) function independently: the vehicle normally runs on natural gas, so that only for starting the engine, gasoline is required. The car then switches automatically to the other system. Fuel supply is required only if the gas in the tank is running low. However, it is always possible to switch between CNG and gasoline mode, by the push of a button.
