Design

[edit]

The design of the Grande Panda takes inspiration from the first generation model with the use of squared lines, it has a number of design references to the original model and retains many design elements from the Mega-Panda concept.[10][11][12]

The front features headlights composed of opaline cubes that are inspired from the windows of the Lingotto factory facades and has X-shaped LED daytime running lights which can illuminate the cubes on the gloss black grille. The side features 3D-printed bas-relief 'Panda' lettering on the lower part of the doors and x-pattern alloy wheels (with sizes ranging up to 17-inch). The rear features 3D vertical taillights housed inside transparent caps, the FIAT name embossed onto the tailgate and a sloped rear windscreen.

The Grande Panda is the first production vehicle to feature an integrated charging cable which is stored behind the flap with the Fiat logo on the front fascia. This charging cable can only support AC charging with speeds up to 7.4kW.[13]

In the centre of the dashboard, the transparent yellow panel features the silhouette of the original Panda model climbing uphill. Part of the dashboard is covered in bamboo fibre, including the glove box.

A range of contrasting materials are used such as textured fabrics, tinted acrylics and brighter coloured plastics. The front and rear seats have a chequered finish, with contrast yellow stitching and an inscription in yellow that reads, "Panda made with love in Fiat".
