Your motorhome, a lifestyle.

The entire Fiat range is leader in eco-friendliness.

Respecting the environment is a fundamental value for motorhome customers and Fiat knows it.

Ducato is BEST IN CLASS for eco-friendliness, always one step ahead of standards.

The new Euro 5 engines of the Ducato are super environment-friendly.

Less...

• fuel consumption • nitrogen oxide, CO2 and particulate emissions • waste oil production because service coupon deadlines are very far apart.

19

The Comfort-Matic transmission contributes to saving and allows cost-effective, optimised running without compromising on driving pleasure.

Fiat packs plenty of other small eco-friendly details on-board (like Start&Stop, DRL and the eco-tips at http://www.fiatcamper.com/drivingadvice.php) Other advantages derive from the electricity, gas and hot water saved with respect to a traditional holiday stay in a hotel.

RELAXING DRIVING COST-EFFECTIVE RUNNING

Section 3. Relaxing driving.

Relaxing, cost-effective driving.

Comfort-Matic is a robotised mechanical gearbox: it has a clutch but opening/closing is managed by a control unit and actuated by small robots working inside.

The left foot rests and the driver's attention is less toiled. • In "AUTO" mode driving is as relaxing and costeffective as ever. • The UP button is designed specifically for motorhomes: it optimises gearshifts on steep up and downhill gradients and when travelling at full load.

34

EASIER DRIVING UPHILL AND WITH HEAVY LOAD WITH THE UP BUTTON

Section 3. Relaxing driving.

Comfort-Matic, special functions.

The gearbox can work in three modes: • All automatic, with gear shifts decided autonomously by the control unit • Semiautomatic, and the driver can “suggest” when to shift remaining in AUTO mode • Manual, and the driver can shift gears sequentially by tapping on the joystick.

35

Comfort-Matic has all the following special functions in automatic mode: • Cold engine. Shifts are controlled during cold starts to keep emissions down.

• Brake Assistance. The system shifts down when the brakes are applied suddenly to help slowing down and stopping.

• Kick Down. The systems shifts down when the accelerator is suddenly floored to guarantee more pick up.

• Fast Off. The system does not shift up if the accelerator is released suddenly to provide engine brake.

Section 3. Relaxing driving.

Manual gearboxes.

Two 6-speed manual gearboxes have been developed to exploit all the power and torque of the 130 Multijet, 150 Multijet and 180 Multijet Power engines: • optimised for working with agility in heavy load conditions, particularly on mixed roads and uphill • ensure quick, silent running on long hauls.

36

ALL GEARBOXES ARE SPECIFICALLY TESTED ON MOTORHOMES AND PROVIDED WITH SPECIFIC RATIOS

46

PERFECT INTEGRATION, EASIER AND SAFER TO USE

Also: • evolved navigation, with traffic info in real time • larger, more defined screen • faster GPS signal speed • interactive functions (weather, Google searches).

Section 4. New features for travelling in style.

The elements of trouble-free travelling: ESP. Fiat Ducato has always been known for its excellent road holding.

Despite this, the unexpected can always happen: with ninth-generation ESP and the new Traction Plus travelling is even more trouble-free.

ESP: electronic stability control monitors vehicle direction and movement of the wheels. In case of need (risk of swerving), the system cuts in by applying the brakes to the single wheels or slowing down the vehicle by reducing engine power.

47

ESP integrates: • ASR (Anti Slip Regulation) to avoid wheel slip when starting off • Hill Holder keeps the vehicle still when starting uphill • HBA (Hydraulic Brake Assistance) helps in emergency braking • LAC (Load Adaptive Control) controls load conditions to control ESP, ASR and ABS interventions.

Section 4. New features for travelling in style.

Easy tackling of different terrain.

Traction Plus Easy to tackle mud, snow, sand or grass.

The electronic “smart differential” system removes torque from a slipping drive wheel in case of need and transfers it to the wheel with the best grip.

It is activated:

• up to 30 km/h • only when needed, by pressing the specific button • no extra vehicle weight.

48

DAMP GRASS IN THE MORNING AND SAND ARE NO LONGER A PROBLEM!

Section 4. New features for travelling in style.

Start&Stop: the engine runs only when it is needed.

Queues and red lights are not only a waste of time: they also waste fuel and generate emissions which can be saved.

Start&Stop automatically stops the engine when the vehicle stops and restarts it when the clutch is pressed or the brake is released.

The starter motor power is appropriately boosted.

Available on 130 and 150 Multijet, it allows to save up to 15% on urban cycles.

Handling and safety.

Fiat Ducato has always been known for its excellent handling.

The elements which contribute to this effect are: 1. Chassis 2. Suspensions 3. Braking system and passenger protection systems 4. Tyres

1. Rigid, robust chassis On the road, the chassis of Ducato stands out particularly because it is extremely rigid and robust, despite its low tare: 172.000 DaNm/rad of torsion rigidity.

59

Section 5. Born to be a motorhome.

2. Always important, even more so for motorhomes.

The suspension system is important for loading capacity, handling and comfort.

Thousands of hours of off and on-vehicle tests in motorhome configuration confirmed the excellent, tried-and-tested layout: • Front McPherson independent wheels suspension • Rear rigid axle with special motorhome parabolic leaf springs • Standard front and rear anti-roll bar • Specific reinforced springs for motorhome versions.

60

Front suspensions have a mechanical crossmember fixed to the body which supports all the elements of the front suspension.

The rear suspensions have leaf springs fixed to the body and a parabolic curvature specifically designed for motorhomes and various other optimisations.

Section 5. Born to be a motorhome.

3. Active and passive safety.

Fiat Ducato has the following standard equipment: • front and rear disc brakes • ABS, to prevent wheel locking • EBD, which distributes the braking force between front and rear axle • available equipment includes new-generation ESP (generation 9) with Traction Plus.

61

Standard passive safety equipment includes: • double stage driver's air bag • three-point seat belts with seat belt reminder warning light and buzzer • cab with reinforced pillars • front deformable crash box for absorbing minor collisions • passenger airbag (the only item which is not standard).

Section 5. Born to be a motorhome.

Other safety features.

• Integral cab crash protection, for total safety in case of collision • collapsible steering wheel column, to avoid chest injuries in front collisions • plastic, low intrusion pedal board, to avoid injuries to feet and legs • seats with rigid front crosspiece and antisubmarining padding to prevent driver and passenger from slipping under the seat belt.

Panoramic view, easy on the ear.

Ducato designers worked all round on acoustic and vibration comfort issues.

They focused on: • door hinges and windows to eliminate all wind noise • suspensions to filter vibrations from the road • engines which increase performance but not noise • intake system with resonators to optimise engine sound • large body but rigid and quiet at the same time • soundproofing treatments with innovative materials and mixtures injected into the cavities.
