Fiat Panda it is destined to become a European model with ambitions for global expansion. It will be relaunched with an innovative and avant-garde design, enriched by the latest technologies, bringing the Panda name to an international level.

The car will also include a combustion engine-equipped variant, which will be the most affordable version in the range. Production will take place in one of the Stellantis group plants located in Eastern Europe.

Although there is still limited information available on the new Jeep Compass, the evolution is expected to involve slight changes to the design, while maintaining the successful elements of the current model. It will be more efficient from the point of view of fuel consumption, especially with the hybrid powertrain. The purchase price should start from around 30,000 euros, at least for the basic version.
