A new delay in the start of sales of the Fiat Grande Panda
According to information from Italy, Fiat has again postponed the start of sales of the model Big Pandawhich was announced for the end of the year.
As things stand now, the first orders of the Grande Panda model will begin in the most important market, Italy, only in January 2025, while the delivery of the first examples would follow only in June 2025, almost a year later than its official promotions in Kragujevac.
According to unofficial information, the delay is caused by certain complications with the electronic system, but the truth seems to be different.
The European market, which is in crisis, is clearly not ready for a “big” Panda, especially an electric one.
Grande Panda’s life is additionally complicated and masterful start “sister” Stealantis Citroen C3, which is already on sale
At the same time, the price of the Grande Panda for the Italian (and Serbian) market is still unknown, so it is expected that the hybrid version, with a 1.2-liter three-cylinder turbo mild hybrid of 101 hp, will cost under 19,000 euros, and the electric variant with 113 hp and a 44kWh battery about 25,000 euros (without subsidies).
What would you say, nothing new from Kragujevac! Damn yard apparentlyand all in the style of the Marathoners, “in January you said the hunt (Grande Panda), in April a year has passed since that promise”.
If it wasn’t sad, it would be shameful!
