A two year unlimited mileage warranty has been introduced on all Fiat commercial vehicles from September 1.

It comes four months ahead of European legislation on vehicle warranty, effective from January 1, 2002, requiring a warranty to be linked to a specified dealer. On Fiat commercial vehicles it will be valid in the EU throughout the dealer network. It will also be transferable to second and subsequent owners.

  • A new 2-litre JTD 84bhp engine has been added to the Fiat Ducato van range, replacing the naturally aspirated and turbo diesel versions of the 1.9-litre unit. JTD common rail engines have an electronically controlled injection system similar to a petrol engine which increases responsiveness and power, while reducing fuel consumption, vibration, noise and emissions.
