FIAT celebrates the 2026 Model Year renewal of its most iconic family: Panda, with several novelties within the line-up, made to offer a modern, unified structure for a simpler customer journey that enhances technology, connectivity, and sustainability.
With the MY26 update, the Panda family becomes more inclusive than ever, featuring two key complementary models: the Pandina, now officially bearing its affectionate name (the “ina” of the range—versatile, accessible, and just 3.69 meters long), and the Grande Panda, now larger and more capable than ever. Grande Panda and Pandina, which embody two different but complementary expressions of FIAT, will now be available in a full range of powertrains - hybrid, 100% electric petrol for Grande Panda, hybrid-only for Pandina - and with a consistent three-trim logic that ensures accessibility across the whole line-up.

Grande Panda

The Grande Panda is more than just a car; it is the foundation of a new global vehicle family. From the first sketches to its launch, the Grande Panda embodies the spirit of the Italian brand, offering smart, inclusive solutions for a worldwide audience. With its compact dimensions and unmistakable personality, it reflects FIAT’s core values of functionality, sustainability, and emotional design.
The new Grande Panda will open European orders in early October and maintaining FIAT’s customer-focused strategy, all three trims, POP, ICON, and LA PRIMA, will be offered across every powertrain, petrol version included, expanding the model presence into right-hand-drive markets.
At entry level, POP embodies simplicity and practicality for everyday mobility. It features manual air conditioning, a 10-inch digital cluster, smart station with speech recognition, while safety is guaranteed by full ADAS and six airbags. The ICON represents the heart of the range, combining distinctive design with enhanced comfort and technology. LED headlamps and rear lamps, black-painted mirrors and handles, a rear spoiler, as well as a 10.25-inch touchscreen with wireless mirroring, supported by six speakers. At the top of the line, LA PRIMA represents the pinnacle of Grande Panda and pairs style with substance. Distinguished by 17-inch alloy wheels, roof rails, skid plates, privacy glass, and refined exterior details, the interior is characterized by premium fabric upholstery, a soft-touch steering wheel, the “Bambox” dashboard, and fabric-insert door panels. Technology plays a central role, with embedded navigation, wireless charging, automatic air conditioning, comprehensive parking sensors, a rear-view camera, and rain sensors.

Pandina

FIAT’s most beloved city car continues its evolution with the Pandina, a name that already says a lot about its spirit. It is the most agile, versatile, and lovable car for the city—and beyond—now refreshed with a lineup that keeps one eye on the FIAT family and the other on its urban-adventure heritage, while staying true to its role as accessible and straightforward mobility solution.
As the entry point into the FIAT world, and complementing the larger, more versatile Grande Panda, the Pandina maintains its light and easy-going style, both visually and in terms of pricing. The entire range features the “Pandina” name printed on the third window; to reinforce its identity and the Cross version adds even more noticeable details, with the naming on both front and back seat as well as on the side molding.
Pandina is available exclusively with hybrid engine. The range, simplified into three trims (POP, ICON, and CROSS), makes it easier than ever to find the Pandina that suits different lifestyles, while preserving the model’s timeless personality.
POP captures the model’s essential character, for those who value straightforward functionality. ICON sits at the center of the Pandina line-up, striking the right balance between comfort and connectivity. At the top of the range, CROSS offers the boldest interpretation of Pandina. Finally, safety is a cornerstone across the entire line-up, with advanced driver assistance systems such as traffic sign recognition, lane-keeping assistance, autonomous emergency braking, driver drowsiness detection, and rear parking sensors.

Presenting the new (FIAT)RED strategy

To celebrate the 4th anniversary of the collaboration between FIAT and (RED), within the Model Year 2026 every Grande Panda and Pandina will feature two distinctive (RED) side badges on the two b-pillars when ordered in red colorway. This reinforces the brand's unwavering commitment to combating global health emergencies alongside its trusted and valuable partner (RED).
