What about maintenance?

According to Fiat: "The 1.6 Multijet needs less-frequent servicing. As a result of the high quality level and the efforts spent on each component to further improve strength and efficiency, it only requires a service every 30 000 km, resulting in reduced running and servicing costs of up to 25% compared to previous generation powertrains."

Doblo Panorama is available in white and five metallic options.

The Doblo has front and the automaker’s next-generation side bags, the latter larger than normal.

iBLUE&ME SYSTEM

Other standard equipment included anti-lock brakes, electronic stability control and hill-start assistance. Cabin goodies include auto aircon, cruise control, parking sensors and the automaker's iBlue&Me hands-free system - Bluetooth, voice recognition, USB port, MP3 player, SMS reader.
