NEW PUNTO VAN MAKES ITS UK DEBUT AT CV SHOW 2012

Fiat Professional's New Punto Van 2012 will make its UK debut at this
year's Commercial Vehicle Show in Birmingham's NEC (24 -26 April,
2012).

The New Punto Van replaces the Grande Punto Van in the Fiat
Professional line-up and brings a wealth of improvements over its
predecessor, providing customers with a strong proposition in the
car-derived van market, with a load capacity of 1.0 m3 and a payload
of 520 kg.

New Punto Van 2012 features external styling changes with fully
colour-coded front and rear bumpers for a more sophisticated look. The
new model combines the successful style of both the Grande Punto and
Punto Evo passenger cars, so the interior features new sportier seat
fabrics and on the SX version there is a new dashboard with soft touch
materials and an elegant design.

Standard equipment on all versions includes ESP (Electronic Stability
Programme), BAS (Brake Assistance System), remote central locking,
electric front windows, electrically adjustable and heated body
coloured mirrors, trip computer, driver and passenger airbags,
radio/CD/MP3 player, electric power steering, height and
reach-adjustable steering wheel and a height-adjustable driver's
seat.

New Punto Van will be available with one diesel engine, the
award-winning and best-selling 1.3 MultiJet II diesel, in three levels
of power:

75hp (55 kW) / 190 Nm max torque (at 1500 rpm)
67.2 MPG (4.2 l/100km) combined fuel consumption and 112 g/km CO2
emissions
85hp (62 kW) / 200 Nm max torque (at 1500 rpm) with Start&Stop
80.7 MPG (3.5 l/100km) combined fuel consumption and 90 g/km CO2
emissions
95hp (70 kW) / 200 Nm max torque (at 1500 rpm) with Start&Stop
67.2 MPG (4.2 l/100km) combined fuel consumption and 110 g/km CO2
emissions
Start&Stop is standard equipment on the 1.3 MultiJet II 85hp and
95hp versions.

The new range starts with the entry level 1.3 MultiJet II 75hp version
at £10,990.00 (exc. VAT and OTR), providing great value for those
customers searching for an affordable price but with all the safety
and comfort features included (ESP, airbags, electric windows and
mirrors, radio/CD/MP3 player).

For an additional £500, the 1.3 MultiJet II 85hp version is available,
with 10hp more and Start&Stop, having a combined fuel consumption
of 80.7 MPG and CO2 emissions of 90 g/km.

The SX trim level is available in combination with the 1.3 MultiJet II
95hp, adding a further £500 to the 85hp version but providing 10hp
more, manual air conditioning and a driver's knee airbag.

It will be available in three pastel colours White, Dark Blue and
Red.

The New Punto Van balances head-turning style, fuel economy, and
elegance with load-bearing practicality, and will become available to
order from the end of April.
