Summer 2020 will be a season of freedom to be regained gently and cautiously, finally back out in the open air while remaining aware of the comfort and peace of mind offered by your own four walls. How can these aspects be combined with wanderlust and the desire for new adventures, maybe with a breathtaking view before you? The solution is a vacation aboard the Fiat Professional Ducato, where any experience is one of safety and comfort. A Ducato-based motorhome is the ideal guarantee of a cool, safe vacation accessible to all, the best way to restart after so many months locked down at home. A motorhome is a protected, self-sufficient environment, easy to clean and sanitize, so you can travel safely with family or friends.
The new “Starred Holidays” campaign
These simple concepts are the guiding principles of the new Fiat Professional campaign, which includes a genuinely evocative print media campaign with immediate, eye-catching vacation images and claims, emphasizing all the inimitable added value of a vacation in a motorhome: dining beneath a starlit sky or in a Michelin-starred restaurant, enjoying your own ‘open bar’ that never closes, choosing to stay a stone’s throw from the sea, immersing yourself in nature, truly getting away from it all.
A word from the leading experts
Fiat Professional is the only brand with a dedicated team that can boast a profound knowledge of the world of Recreational Vehicles, as ‘certified’ by the “Fiat Professional for Recreational Vehicles” logo. The brand is also highly specialized in terms of products and services for motorhome owners, thus ensuring maximum flexibility and freedom for its customers.
Moreover, Ducato MY2020 is a technical evolution that continues the tradition of success of a model continuously produced since 1981 at the Sevel plant in Val di Sangro. It also represents leadership in the sector for more than a decade, during which more than 500,000 families in Europe have chosen a Ducato-based motorhome.
Flexible travel and onboard comfort
The major new features raved about by customers in the leisure sector include the new “9Speed” automatic transmission, which ensures a relaxed and enjoyable driving experience, while improving performance and optimizing fuel consumption in any situation. The engine line-up offers the industrially conceived 2.3-liter Euro 6d-TEMP diesel engine, a solid and long-lasting power unit that guarantees automotive performance and comfort, available with four power outputs: 120, 140, 160 and 180 HP. All equipped with Multijet 2 technology, each engine has its own special features, such as the design of the turbocharger, pistons and fluid dynamics. Finally, for safe and smooth journeys, the most advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) come as standard, as does specific suspension for motorhomes, together with a long list of features to guarantee maximum comfort.
Leader in Freedom
The Ducato MY2020 style is the result of a cutting-edge car design which, when combined with the concept of a genuinely light commercial vehicle, conveys a powerful sense of dynamism, safety, quality and robustness. The Fiat Professional vehicle therefore embodies the concept of “design meets functionality”.
On the inside, Ducato-based motorhomes are also mini-masterpieces of engineering and creativity. A Ducato motorhome can be fitted with special rotating seats for the driver and front passenger. A solution to travel in comfort: once the engine is off, the Ducato becomes a lounge, simply by turning round toward the living area. This is only one of the extraordinary solutions developed by Fiat Professional and the outfitters that make the Ducato motorhome base vehicle the true “Leader in Freedom”. Its leadership is evidenced by an extraordinary haul of international awards, including the prestigious German title of “Best Motorhome Base”, won by Ducato in 2020 for the thirteenth year running. This coveted award was bestowed by readers of Promobil, a specialist German magazine that has served as a major benchmark for trends in the recreational vehicles sector for over 25 years, and confirms customer loyalty to the Ducato model as the ideal leisure base.
Adventures without a hitch: Fiat Professional services
“Leader in Freedom” is a concept with a precise meaning. “Freedom” is a ‘customer promise’ that Fiat Professional keeps by ensuring proximity and solutions to any issues that might come up during your vacation.
