Truckster: The ultimate new Ducato!
Posted on 05/27/2006 under: Trucks/Pickups
Fiat Auto has taken the wraps off its new Fiat Ducato at the Madrid International Motor Show, (25 May – 6 June 2006), and has also revealed the Truckster, a concept which takes the new Ducato to extremes, and demonstrates just how flexible the Ducato is for converters.
Created by the Fiat Style Centre in collaboration with Bosch SpA, Behr GmbH, SEWS CABIND SpA (Sumitomo Group) and Denso Thermal System SpA, this original concept vehicle has a huge range of possible uses: purely as a show exhibit, as an ‘adventure’ vehicle for transporting race cars or motorbikes, or even as a mobile catwalk for fashion shows.
This capacity for transformation has always been a key feature of the Ducato, the camper van version of which is the leader in its field, with two out of three campers in Europe built on a Ducato chassis, all thanks to the technical characteristics of a vehicle designed for body converters.
New Ducato takes over from its immensely successful forerunner of 25 years’ standing – an internationally acclaimed model with sales of over 1.7 million since 1981.
