A new era begins for Fiat in Brazil, with the arrival of the Great Panda and the promise of innovation!

The new Fiat Grande Panda, revealed in June in Europe, is already in Brazil, being spotted in tests near the brand's factory in Betim (MG).

Expected to arrive on the Brazilian market in 2026, this hatch promises not only to replace the Mobi and the Argon, but it can also revive the famous name Uno, which made history in the country, according to the website terra.

Bold design and striking features

Despite the camouflage that covers its silhouette, the look of the new Fiat Grande Panda is difficult to ignore.

It features a bold design, with elements that pay homage to the original Panda from the 80s. The straight lines, the rectangular LED headlights and the front grille with the displaced Fiat logo evoke a style that captivates car lovers.

The wheels, which can reach up to 17 inches, and the slightly highlighted fenders, complete the bold look of this hatchback.

With 3,99 meters in length, the new model is one centimeter longer than the Brazilian C3 and will be built on the modular CMP platform, stellantis.

At the rear, the LED lights have a vertical design and are interconnected by a black strip, which displays the logo Panda in high relief at the base of the trunk lid.

The promise of a global portfolio

Fiat has big plans to unify its global portfolio, and the Grande Panda is part of that strategy.

Each region will have its own particularities, but all future models will share the same philosophy and technology, using a single platform that supports combustion, hybrid and electric engines.

In Brazil, a predominance of hybrid-flex versions, adapted to local tastes, is expected.

Interior news and specifications

While the interior of the new European Grand Panda stands out for its modern and colorful design, with a digital panel integrated into the multimedia center, the Brazilian version may undergo some adaptations.

The finish is likely to be simpler, prioritizing sober tones such as black and gray, in order to make the vehicle more accessible.

For the Brazilian market, the new Fiat Grande Panda should feature the engine 1.0 turbo flex, able to deliver 130 cv and equipped with the system 12V Bio-Hybrid, in addition to a CVT gearbox.

Versions with engines are also planned. 1.0 e 1.3 Firefly, already updated to the new requirements of Proconve L8.

Expectations for the future with the Fiat Grande Panda

There is still a mystery about the final name of the future hatchback. Internally known as F1H and associated with the new generation of Argo, the Great Panda can, yes, recover the iconic name Uno, according to information from Guia do Carro since 2020. This possibility generates growing expectations among the brand's fans.

The new Fiat Grande Panda will arrive in Brazil in mid 2026, promising not only a revival of a beloved name, but also a new era of innovation and style for the brand.

Stay tuned, as Fiat's future in Brazil looks more promising than ever.

It should be launched immediately, because I am a FIAT MANIACO WAY and I have always criticized the fact that they removed a car like this from the line. I am on my fifth Uno, today 15/16.
I know almost all of Brazil driving a Uno and I have never come across a UNO on a trailer.
It's a shame they changed the engine to a 3 cylinder

I'm a big fan of the Uno Mille! I still have my old one, which has always been a warrior when I needed it. I wish I could fix it now! I don't want to get rid of it!

Uno is the best and most economical car ever released on the market. I had 14, always starting at zero, never staying on the highway. I regret that they stopped producing it. I'm talking about the Uno with the
Spare tire next to the engine.
