Fiat Chrysler Automobiles opens e-Village in Turin – Car dealership…

10 December 2020
from Jan-Christopher Sierks

– The new e-Village in the environmentally friendly “Green Pea” complex represents the comprehensive sustainability strategy of Fiat Chrysler Automobiles (FCA).
– All electrified vehicle models of the FCA brands are exhibited on 1.300 square meters.

Fiat Chrysler Automobiles (FCA) has opened its first car dealership exclusively for electric and hybrid vehicles in Turin. The e-Village is located in the "Green Pea" complex, a unique architectural project with a focus on environmental technology on the site of the former Fiat Lingotto plant in the northern Italian metropolis.

"The 'Green Pea' complex is the ideal location for FCA's green jewels," commented Olivier François, President of Fiat and Chief Marketing Officer FCA. "In this innovative facility, we can show the new face of mobility. And not just with cars, but also with heart, soul and senses. e-Village should be simple and restrained, because simplicity and restraint go hand in hand with sustainability. 'Less is more' is rule number one when it comes to sustainability. But rule number two is thinking outside the box. The new e-Village will not only show the technology of our cars. It will also present innovative solutions for purchasing, renting, sharing, our new services, payment systems and new applications."

The "Green Pea" complex comprises five floors dedicated to changing people's relationship with energy, movement, housing, clothing and leisure. "Green Pea" has clearly defined geometries and follows the guiding principle of overall ecological awareness: zero impact on the environment. Three rules characterize the architectural project: reuse, recycle, reduce. The result is an innovative showcase for the mobility of the future. Many of the furnishings were made in collaboration with Stay Green, a designer and manufacturer of sustainable products "Made in Italy". Stay Green produces from recycled raw materials or reuses exhibition components that were previously used at automobile shows, for example. A highlight are large textile surfaces made from theBreath^®, a revolutionary material that can significantly reduce air pollution thanks to its absorbent properties.

FCA's new e-Village is located on the ground floor of "Green Pea". In a space of over 1.300 square meters, the best technologies in the field of green thinking come together. FCA, FCA Bank/Leasys and Mopar^® are jointly presenting an environmentally conscious and sustainable product range that is geared towards the well-being of the environment and the future of mobility. On display are the fully electric Fiat 500 and Fiat E-Ducato as well as the hybrid vehicles of the brands Fiat, Jeep_® and - exclusively for the Italian market - Lancia. Visitors to the e-Village can also learn about the Fiat Centoventi concept car, which offers a whole range of innovative solutions, including modular batteries for a scalable range, sustainable materials and reusable plug-and-play accessories. Also on display is an Alfa Romeo Tonale concept car, which will be the brand's second SUV model to be launched in 2021 and will then also be available in a plug-and-play hybrid version. The new e-Village, organizationally part of the Mirafiori Motor Village, also offers space for accessories and merchandising items from the group's brands, as well as a conference room.

At the heart of FCA's Sustainable Mobility strategy is the reconciliation of customer needs with environmental protection. This strategy reflects the desire to address environmental issues. One of the biggest challenges in this process for all car manufacturers is the redesign of mobility as a whole. Major changes are essential and must respond to customer demands, which are constantly evolving and expect ever greater attention to the environment.

FCA is committed to creating the conditions for mobility to become more sustainable and for e-mobility to be a smart choice for customers right from the start. FCA has created a structured, environmentally friendly and economically competitive system that brings together partners, products and services across sectors. The aim is to simplify the use of electric cars and electrified vehicles. The FCA eMobility division promotes a new interpretation and experience of mobility that reconciles customer needs and concern for the environment.

The fully electric Fiat 500
The main attraction in the e-Village is the new Fiat 500, which is fully electric and is available in sedan and convertible body versions as well as the completely new 3+1 version. The new Fiat 500 is a prime example of the Italian virtues of style, tradition, innovation, craftsmanship and technology. The front of the vehicle, the face with the unmistakable headlights, contrasts with the modern, clean lines of the body and conveys a powerful, robust character. The interior continues with references to the historic predecessor, including the round instrument panel and the two-spoke steering wheel. Apart from these borrowings, the interior has been completely redesigned to improve comfort and space. The technological content and the numerous services that create a world around the new Fiat 500 are also innovative.

The new Fiat 500 is a completely new development, designed exclusively for electric drive. Clever solutions include the batteries housed in a block in the vehicle floor between the axles. This made it possible to create generous space for the interior and luggage compartment. At the same time, the low, central center of gravity has a positive effect on the driving dynamics of the Italian electric vehicle.

The result of this strategy is an agile car that is fun to drive, comfortable and quiet, and connected to the Internet even when on the move. The new Fiat 500 is a compact car suitable for use in the city, as easy to use as a smartphone. With a comparatively long range, the new Fiat 500 is the only car in this class to be able to drive autonomously at level 2, naturally with zero local emissions.

The new Fiat 500 is available in three trim levels: ACTION, PASSION and ICON, each offering specific features. All three offer a high standard in terms of technology, connectivity and safety.

Fiat 500 Hybrid and Fiat Panda Hybrid
In addition to the new Fiat Panda, the mild hybrid variants of the Fiat 500 and Fiat Panda can also be seen in the e-Village. Fiat's mild hybrid engine combines a three-cylinder petrol engine from the FireFly series, which generates 51 kW (70 hp) from a liter of displacement, with a belt starter generator (RSG), which works in the 12-volt electrical system and supports the combustion engine with an output of 3,6 kW when starting. The RSG draws its energy from a lithium-ion battery with a capacity of 11 Ah. A new six-speed gearbox, which is tailored to the characteristics of the mild hybrid drive, ensures the power is transmitted to the front axle.

The hybrid system improves fuel efficiency without compromising performance. Compared to the four-cylinder petrol engine 1.2 8V with 50 kW (69 hp) from the FIRE series, CO₂-Emissions are reduced by an average of 20 percent, and by up to 30 percent in the new Fiat Panda Cross. In addition, the RSG system enables the automatic start-stop system to operate much more comfortably and without vibrations than a conventional starter motor. Buyers also benefit from all the advantages of the hybrid vehicle's type approval, which, in addition to meeting the Euro 6D Final emissions standard, can also include free access and freedom of movement in the city center, cheaper parking in the city center and tax relief, depending on local regulations.

Jeep Renegade 4xe and Jeep Compass 4xe
Electrification is a fundamental aspect of Jeep's future strategy and represents the desire to become a leader in sophisticated, greener technologies, while maintaining the brand's historic values of adventure, authenticity, freedom and passion. With plug-in hybrid electric technology, Jeep Renegade 4xe and Jeep Compass 4xe offer the best performance and driving pleasure of the two ranges. Jeep Renegade 4xe and Jeep Compass 4xe are literally able to go anywhere and do anything. At the same time, they are ideal cars for everyday use in the city thanks to plug-in hybrid technology, which enables locally emission-free driving with an average range of up to 50 kilometers (measured according to the NEDC2 cycle) in fully electric mode.

The new Jeep Renegade 4xe and Jeep Compass 4xe Plug-in-Hybrid models are available in the Limited, S and Trailhawk trim levels. All variants are equipped with four-wheel drive and a six-speed automatic transmission. There is a choice of two power levels with 140 kW (190 hp) or 177 kW (260 hp) system output. The Business trim level is also available for the Jeep Compass 4xe.

A characteristic feature of both models is the wide range of body colors. The Jeep Renegade has 18 single or two-tone variants, some in combination with a black roof, and the Jeep Compass even has 22 versions. Jeep has developed a comprehensive range of charging solutions for public and private areas around the electrified drive systems, with the easyWallbox at the center.

The Lancia Ypsilon Hybrid EcoChic
The Lancia Ypsilon is still available in Italy. The new model version Lancia Ypsilon Hybrid EcoChic, which is available in Silver and Gold trim levels, is equipped with the same mild hybrid drive as the Fiat 500 Hybrid and Fiat Panda Hybrid.

The Fiat E-Ducato
Fiat Professional, FCA's van specialists, have set themselves the goal of offering comprehensive solutions for electric mobility in the commercial sector. Based on an analysis of energy needs, these solutions not only cover every single task, but also provide answers to vehicle and infrastructure issues, as well as a whole range of everyday services that are increasingly required by new forms of mobility.

The Fiat E-Ducato is offered with modularly scalable battery sizes that ensure ranges in a typical urban delivery cycle of 200 to over 360 kilometers, depending on environmental conditions, battery type and charging configuration. In addition, the fully electric van has high performance potential. The speed is limited to 100 km/h. The power is 90 kW, the maximum torque is 280 Newton meters. The new electric motor underlines the strengths of the Fiat E-Ducato. These include the best-in-class loading volume of ten to 17 cubic meters and the best-in-class payload of up to 1.950 kilograms. In addition, the Fiat E-Ducato offers modern connectivity, for example for managing vehicle fleets.

Mopar's offer^®
Mopar’s offer^® to the electrified vehicle models from Fiat and Jeep will be presented in the new e-Village in the “Green Pea” complex. In particular, Jeep Renegade 4xe and Jeep Compass 4xe can be equipped with a wide range of authentic accessories from Mopar^® Both models are available with more than 100 accessories that emphasize their versatility as a vehicle for both city and off-road use. These include the new 4xe package, which includes blue styling accents for the bonnet and exterior mirror caps, as well as high-quality floor mats.

For the fully electric Fiat 500, Mopar is concentrating^® on fashionable elements, for example with the brass, chrome and matt grey Maratea packages. A special storage set for the charging cable, which increases its service life, has great practical value. Also available are 16-inch diamond-cut alloy wheels and a large selection of roof racks.

The offer of FCA Bank
Shared and electric mobility are two important cornerstones of the ecological sustainability strategy of the FCA Bank Group, which also presents its offering in the "Green Pea" complex. Among other things, a charging station for the new Fiat 500 operated by Leasys is on display.

In 2020, FCA Bank also introduced a range of financing solutions with a strong focus on environmental sustainability. The “Be-Hybrid” program links the purchase of a hybrid or electric car to the planting of a tree, organized by the environmental organization Treedom. In this way, buyers contribute to reducing COXNUMX emissions in two ways.₂emissions. Leasys, the mobility division of the FCA Bank Group, offers a wide range of electromobility services and also promotes the expansion of the charging infrastructure. Leasys' mobility solutions are available both online and in service points, currently in Italy and France and in Spain in the near future. In Leasys' mobility shops, customers can pick up and drop off vehicles booked via a smartphone application and charge their own electric or hybrid car free of charge. By the end of this year, Leasys will expand its offering in Italy to more than 400 mobility shops with 1.200 charging points in all major cities, airports and train stations. A network of 2022 stores and 1.500 charging points is planned across Europe by 3.500.

Leasys' innovative mobility solutions also include the "Leasys Miles Hybrid" billing model, long-term rentals via "Be Free Hybrid" and the innovative "Leasys CarCloud" subscription program, which includes options for FCA's hybrid models and the fully electric Fiat 500. "LeasysGO" is the first car sharing program whose entire fleet consists of new Fiat 500s. Subscribers can sign up for 120 minutes of car sharing per month. This service starts in Turin and will also be available in Milan and Rome as well as Lyon (France) and Valencia (Spain) from the end of 2021.

Fiat Talento now with automatic dual-clutch transmission

25 November 2020
from Jan-Christopher Sierks

– The Fiat Talento now enhances its well-known characteristics of payload capacity, compactness and agility with a new, automatic six-speed dual-clutch transmission.
– Two wheelbases, two lengths, 25 versions and a payload of up to 1,2 tonnes: the versatile Talento is constantly evolving, now with the new transmission towards driving comfort.
– Talento DCT from December 01st at all Fiat Professional dealers in Germany.

As a commercial vehicle with an ideal combination of agility and performance, the Fiat Professional Talento is now continuing its development towards even greater driving comfort.

Following the debut of the new 2.0 EcoJet engine, the automatic dual-clutch transmission (DCT) now follows. The six-speed transmission, which can be switched both fully automatically and sequentially, makes the Talento the ideal means of transport, for example for “last mile” logistics.

power, torque and reduced consumption

Anyone who wants to order the Fiat Talento with the new DCT transmission has two power levels of the 2.0 EcoJet engine to choose from: 107 kW (145 hp) and 350 Newton meters and 125 kW (170 hp) and 380 Newton meters. Both engines meet the Euro 6d-Temp emissions standard and have a turbocharger with variable turbine geometry, which contributes to a harmonious development of torque even at low engine speeds, and thus to responsible use of fuel.

Talento: the ideal answer to every need

The Fiat Talento is not only the leader in its segment in terms of payload, compactness and manoeuvrability. It is also available in a wide range of body types, whether van, six-seater N1 people carrier, double cab or flatbed, in two lengths, two heights and two different wheelbases.

With all these combination options, every customer can find the right model for their individual needs - from 5,2 to 8,6 cubic meters of loading volume, a permissible total weight of 2,8 to 3,05 tons and a payload of up to 1,3 tons. The introduction of the DCT transmission expands the current range by 25 new versions.

Automotive comfort and advanced infotainment

Comfort and ergonomics are the hallmarks of the Talento interior. Robust fabrics and well-profiled seats ensure comfortable seating, while numerous storage compartments with a total capacity of 90 liters provide everything you need for everyday transport.

The “mobile office” also provides practicality and functionality in the cabin on request, consisting of a storage space under the seat, a folding middle seat and a holder for the tablet or smartphone.

The infotainment offering for the Talento includes a system from Mopar^® with seven-inch touchscreen, USB port, DAB radio and Bluetooth^®-Hands-free system with steering wheel controls. The system integrates Apple CarPlay and compatibility with Android Auto^TM as well as a navigation system with 2D and 2,5D (bird view) display.

Wehner Group opens new FCA location in Buchholz

13 October 2020
from Jan-Christopher Sierks

– 1.700 square meters of exhibition space for presentation of the FCA product range
– Further investments in new locations planned from 2021

The Wehner Group, which has been a trading partner of Fiat Chrysler Automobiles (FCA) since last year, is now selling vehicles of the brands Abarth, Alfa Romeo, Fiat, Jeep and Fiat Professional at its new location in Buchholz in der Nordheide.

The new building was recently officially opened. "We want to appeal to customers in the southern part of Hamburg at this location and see great potential in the diverse product range of the FCA brands," says Managing Director Claas Wehner, explaining the group's plans.

"The collaboration with the Wehner family is an initiative full of conviction between two partners who want to be successful, trust each other, face the changes in the market and want to take advantage of the opportunities that arise," says Maria Grazia Davino, CEO of FCA Germany AG in Frankfurt. "A family business with a long tradition, solid prospects and large dimensions in an area with great potential has all the prerequisites for a success story."

The new building is designed in accordance with FCA's corporate identity guidelines and will house not only the sale of vehicles but also comprehensive workshop services. A total of 15 employees will now be looking after the needs of customers in Buchholz.

Wehner Group opens new FCA location in Buchholz

To coincide with the opening of the approximately 1.700 square meter exhibition area, the “La Prima Tour” was held in Buchholz, during which the trading partners were able to present the new Fiat 500 to their prospective customers for the first time.

"In Hamburg, merchants conclude contracts with a handshake and each contracting party adheres to the agreements," says Claas Wehner, describing a typical business deal in the region, although the handshake has a more metaphorical meaning in times of COVID19. "And both sides have adhered to all agreements at all times."

Johannes Alings, Director Network Development at FCA Germany AG in Frankfurt: “We are delighted that with the Wehner Group we have been able to appoint a strong partner in northern Germany that relies on our brands.”

The Claas Wehner car dealership was founded in 1973. The group of companies, now run by the second generation, currently sells vehicles in a total of six branches in the Hamburg area.

Fiat Professional at the motorhome trade fairs in Düsseldorf and Parma

September 11, 2020
from Jan-Christopher Sierks

– In this special year, the Fiat Ducato can once again be seen as the base vehicle for the motorhome at the most important European trade fairs for the recreational vehicle industry.
– Comfort, engines, transmissions and safety make it the market leader in its segment.
– The Ducato and the “Fiat Professional for Leisure Vehicles” team have been the best companions for many years for the more than 500.000 European families who have chosen the Ducato as the base vehicle for their motorhome.
– Ducato is the “Leader in Freedom”, offering customer orientation with a wide range of services for holidays in the great outdoors and in complete tranquillity.

The Fiat Professional brand is back at the most important European event for the recreational vehicle sector, the Caravan Salon in Düsseldorf. The fair is open until September 13th. Fiat Professional is also taking part in the Salone del Camper in Parma, which can be visited until September 20th. Both fairs are working with larger exhibition areas and all measures to avoid large crowds and fully guarantee compliance with the hygiene and safety regulations in force.

Eric Laforge, Head of Fiat Professional Brand - EMEA said: "We are proud to participate in these prestigious exhibitions, where we are always present with our best-seller, the multi-award-winning Ducato Camper, which is the undisputed leader as a camper base vehicle: over the last ten years, over 500.000 European families have chosen a Ducato-based camper. And for camper owners, international exhibitions are often an opportunity to learn more about our products, meet and talk to us, and they are an irreplaceable part of our after-sales service. These events also provide us with important feedback from the end customer."

Finally, Fiat Professional is the only brand whose dedicated team has a profound knowledge of the world of recreational vehicles. The brand is highly specialized in products and services for motorhome owners, thus ensuring maximum flexibility and freedom for its customers. The Ducato motorhome base vehicle of the 2020 model year is a true star in its sector and continues the technical evolution of the successful tradition of this model, which has been produced continuously since 1981 at the Sevel plant in Val di Sangro.

At the Caravan Salon in Düsseldorf and the Salone del Camper in Parma, the Fiat Professional exhibition areas focus on the brand's core values: technology, comfort and value. In Düsseldorf, a "cab-to-cab" exhibition vehicle can be seen that illustrates the diverse solutions offered by the Ducato as a motorhome base. "Cab-to-cab" is the fusion of two different chassis, each with a 2,3-liter turbo diesel engine: on one side you can see the driver's cab, on the other a power unit called a cowl. In Parma, the focus is on a Ducato Chassis Cab Special 160 Multijet. The stands at both trade fairs also provide information about the engines, the popular new nine-speed torque converter automatic transmission and the services for motorhome owners.

Flexible travel and comfort on board

At both shows, Fiat Professional customer service representatives will be happy to meet interested visitors and Ducato drivers - in compliance with current hygiene regulations - and provide information on engines, transmissions and services. For example, the new "9Speed" torque converter automatic transmission, which ensures a relaxed and pleasant driving experience while improving performance and optimising fuel consumption, or the four power levels of the 2,3-litre Euro 6d diesel engine, a solid and durable unit. The engine is equipped with Multijet II technology, with each power version having its own peculiarities, such as the design of the turbocharger or the pistons and crankshaft. For a safe and smooth journey, the most advanced driver assistance systems are standard, as is a suspension tuned for motorhomes, along with a long list of features for maximum comfort.

Leading in Freedom

Hundreds of thousands of motorhome drivers value the Fiat Ducato as a technical basis. Its leadership role is demonstrated by an extraordinary number of international awards, including the prestigious "Best Motorhome Base" award, which the Ducato received for the thirteenth time in a row in 2020 from readers of the German trade magazine Promobil. The trade magazine and its award have been considered an important benchmark for trends in the recreational vehicle sector for over 25 years.

Adventure without breakdowns: Services from Fiat Professional

When Fiat Professional talks about "freedom", it also means the customer promise of proximity and solutions to problems that may arise during a holiday. Fiat Professional and its network not only represent the best base for the best motorhome, but are also committed to ensuring that all motorhome owners can travel in complete peace of mind. Based on its decades of experience, Fiat Professional offers a unique range of services for all those who travel with Fiat Professional motorhomes. These include dedicated, multilingual customer service, a website, a Fiat Ducato motorhome Facebook page and a content-rich Instagram page. For maintenance, repairs or a check-up of a Fiat Professional motorhome, owners can count on a Europe-wide network of 6.500 Fiat Professional service points. Of these, over 1.800 are Fiat motorhome assistance points, with even more specialised facilities for motorhomes.

The multilingual roadside assistance service, available 24 hours a day, is free of charge for the first two years after the vehicle is registered, to provide rapid assistance in case of need, including in the event of an accident, flat tire, empty fuel tank or technical fault.

Finally, Fiat Professional, in collaboration with Mopar, has developed 'Maximum Care Camper', a package that extends the warranty beyond the warranty date, giving you complete peace of mind.

“Starred Holidays” campaign inspires
