Fiat has announced UK pricing for the battery-electric variant of its Grande Panda, starting at £20,975, though orders are not yet open. In Germany, the vehicle can now be configured online, with a starting price of €24,990.
Fiat had previously stated in December that the model was available for order in Germany, but the online configurator was delayed due to software issues, according to InsideEVs. Stellantis, Fiat’s parent company, has not commented on the delay in its latest press release.
