Fiat new born was presented on October
4th at Transpotec in Milan: the Fiat Fiorino. For the first time in the
automotive history, the electric version, developed by Micro-Vett, was
launched simultaneously with the endothermic version!
Fiat Research Centre actually asked
Micro-Vett to take charge of the electrification of the Fiorino range.
Micro-Vett already realises the Electric Fiat Dobḷ, distributed by
NEWTEON.
This new commercial vehicle is more
compact than the Dobḷ and offers remarkable performances for an urban
use. The motor of the Fiorino has a power of 30kW and ensures excellent
performances: 0 to 50 km/h within 7 seconds, top speed of 80 km/h. The
lithium batteries guarantees a 100 km range and are rechargeable in
three hours. The Fiorino also offers a payload volume of 2,5 m3.
The Electric Fiorino is the ideal
vehicle for public and private fleets, service companies working in city
centers, hospitals, etc.
The new Fiorino will be distributed in
Italy at the end of the year in ten different colours and nine
configurations. The launch in France is scheduled for February 2008.
