Automobili Pininfarina introduces a pioneering new era of electric luxury with the PURA Vision design concept. The design study’s elegant silhouette and dramatic proportions express Automobili Pininfarina’s PURA design philosophy, effortlessly transforming the DNA of iconic models from Pininfarina SpA's past to define the future – envisioned here as a beautiful electric Luxury Utility Vehicle (e-LUV).The new design concept will inspire the next generation of Automobili Pininfarina’s pure electric luxury vehicles and will make its public debut at Monterey Car Week in August, where it will appear alongside the recently-revealed Battista Edizione Nino Farina hyper GT and another new production vehicle of an equally exquisite, yet different proposition, itself defining a new genre of driving pleasure.PURA Vision represents a striking interpretation of an electric Luxury Utility Vehicle, with bold cab-rear proportions that combine timeless beauty with exquisite detailing to create a dynamic identity with unmistakable presence. Show-stopping features include its narrow glasshouse and tri-opening pillarless doors, which provide supreme access to its sophisticated cabin.
During the event dedicated to the new Ducato MY2020, the evolution of the Best-Seller that has been fulfilling the whole spectrum of business needs for 38 years, the Fiat Professional brand gave the world its very first glimpse of the Ducato Electric - an all-electric BEV (Battery Electric Vehicle) version - which will go on sale during 2020 and team up with the natural gas Ducato Natural Power to complete the alternative fuel offering.The new Ducato therefore succeeds in its attempt to improve itself, along an evolutionary path that has never stopped for almost forty years. Excellent performance and eco-friendliness and a strong focus on TCO (Total Cost of Ownership), to best respond to the different needs of every professional mission. As well as the most extensive range for an "all forward" vehicle, sophisticated and recognisable style, and cutting-edge technology.This same thinking underlines the Ducato Electric, the first full-electric Fiat Professional model, designed and developed according to the FCA Group's most advanced quality standards.The Ducato Electric has been conceived and developed on the basis of a specific, detailed study of customers' real use of their vehicles, involving a year of data gathering, which confirmed that more than 25% of the market already has a "BEV Attitude" in terms of use, routes, dynamics and performances, and is therefore ready and waiting for a mobility change.
