The new Fiat Doblo has been unveiled, building on the strengths of the current model as it evolves to meet the ever-more diverse needs of its demanding and loyal customers.
The fourth generation of the Doblo, which has amassed 300,000 sales since it was first launched in 2000, features a restyled front end for 2015 with a sculpted bonnet; new front wings; distinctive new headlamps and a bold new grille, all of which bring an air of sophistication and elegance to the new Doblo's design.
At the rear, there are new light clusters, with a sleeker shape and more sophisticated graphics and a new body-coloured moulding across the tailgate.
The 2015 Doblo continues to offer one of the broadest and most comprehensive ranges in its segment, with three engine/transmission choices, three trim levels, two roof heights and a choice of five or seven-seat versions. Twin sliding rear doors are standard, while a choice of tailgates and the option of a fold-flat front passenger seat give customers even more scope for choosing the perfect Doblo to suit their lifestyle.
Inside, the new Doblo retains its outstanding versatility and practicality - five-seat models have a vast 790-litre boot (up to the parcel shelf) which can be boosted to a class-leading 3,200 litres when all the passenger seats are folded down, and even the parcel shelf does its bit: it can be positioned at different levels and can carry loads of up to 70kg.
Other subtle improvements to the 2015 Doblo include lighter and more precise gear changes, a more responsive throttle pedal, new instrumentation and even better noise insulation. The new Doblo is available with either a 95bhp 1.4-litre petrol engine or a 1.6-litre MultiJet 2 engine that produces 105bhp or 90bhp with a Dualogic transmission.
The new Doblo continues to offer the best ride and handling in its class, mainly thanks to its segment-exclusive, bi-link, independent rear suspension, with dual-rate shock absorbers, high-performance springs and a rear anti-roll bar all tuned to provide the ideal combination of handling and damping performance on all roads.
