Fiat promotes new fleet offering
Fiat is promoting the launch of its all new Doblo and Doblo cargo ranges on industry websites ContractHireAndLeasing.com and TheVanWebsite.co.uk this month.
The new Doblo range offers a hosts of improvements, not just a refreshed and restyled exterior, but also features improvements in safety, style, comfort and running costs too.
A choice of three high-tech engines, all produce more power and torque than their predecessors while drinking less fuel and emitting less carbon dioxide. The 1.6 16v and 2.0-litre turbodiesels employ Fiat’s ground-breaking MultiJet technology to combine best-in-class fuel consumption and exhaust emissions with lively yet smooth responses. They also feature a new six-speed manual gearbox while the 1.6 will also become available with an automatic.
The 1.4 16v petrol engine is the perfect range starter with a punchy 95bhp, and like its diesel siblings it complies with Euro 5 emissions standards. Whatever the engine, all models come with Start&Stop and also feature a gearshift indicator to tell you when it’s the most fuel-efficient moment to change gear.
Available with two year’s free servicing for a limited time, the new Cargo also features Fiat’s Blue&Me handsfree system.
Blue&Me TomTom can also be specified. This revolutionary system features a practical colour touch screen that acts as a hub for a mobile phone, navigation system and information about the car. It is even sophisticated enough to point the driver to the nearest fuel station when it detects the tank is nearly empty. It’s also fully portable to combine the best attributes of aftermarket and factory fit systems.
Included is Fiat’s ground-breaking eco:Drive system to give real-time fuel consumption information and advice on how to get the best economy out of the Doblo.
Best of all, the new Doblo is roomier than ever, with seats for up to seven. Prices ranging from £12,295 to £17,145 (OTR), the new Doblo will initially be available in eight versions featuring seating for up to seven. As well as a refined new appearance, all incorporate innovative bi-link rear suspension for a high level of comfort. The longest wheelbase in the segment doesn’t just mean more room for passengers but more space for their luggage too, with a roomy 790-litre boot that can be expanded to a class-topping 3200 litres.

Emissions start from 138g/km of CO2 with fuel efficiency standing at 54.3mpg on a combined cycle in the 1.6 16v model. Theses new MultiJet engines don’t just save money at the pumps; they’re also cheap to service. Engine inspections now only occur every 21,000 miles meaning a 25 per cent saving on scheduled servicing over 56,000 miles.
