By Nadia Goldsmith
The Fiat Centoventi, a city concept car revealed at the 2019 Geneva Motor Show, is under development as part of Fiat’s new-look EV range with 120 available accessories. Features of the Fiat Centoventi On the outside, the Centoventi is an evolution of the Fiat Panda city car. Design features include a boxy overall look with interchangeable plastic body and roof panels so owners can change the look to suit tastes. The nose features a multi-bar grille, inspired by the original Panda, to show the charging status of the electric powertrain. On the inside, the space features a large mounting bracket where the passenger seat should be. This space allows fitment of different modules such as a storage basket, child’s car seat or pet carrier, depending on personal needs. In addition, Fiat are offering the option to change seat fabrics so owners can personalise and update their Centoventi during ownership. The vehicle’s minimalist dashboard features a ‘plug and play system’ that enables fitment of different kits. The dashtop includes a system of

holes that can take additional storage modules like cupholders or smartphone docks. Electric motoring for the masses As noted by AutoExpress, Fiat are using the Centoventi to make electric motoring available to masses. When revealed in Geneva in 2019, the Centoventi had a battery capable of delivering a 60-mile range. However, with the ability to swap and add battery packs, Fiat claim it can be boosted to up to 300 miles. The battery pod in the Centoventi is located under the passenger space which allows for quick battery changes. Although under production, this car delivers insight into the future innovation of Fiat’s EV city cars.
