AutoExpress test the new Fiat Panda Cross
Labels: cross, fiat panda, test, uk, viscous coupling 0 commentsIt's an update of the 4x4 model, with a new differential unit which allows the Panda to get grip, even if only one wheel can get traction.
It's down to a new viscous coupling and some clever electronics. It's also 11cm higher than the normal 4x4, and with chunkier tyres, making it perfect for rough terrain.
It's powered by the 1.3 Multijet diesel engine, and is an obvious contender for success in Fiat's homeland of Italy. - the downside is whether the type of English driver who might need proper off-road capability will be tempted by something which could fit inside the average SUV for £11995.
