Fiat Professional just dropped its full light commercial vehicle (LCV) range across the GCC. That means businesses in the region now have three flexible van options to choose from: the Doblo, the Scudo, and the Ducato. Each one hits a different sweet spot, depending on what your business needs moved, where, and how fast.
Doblo: Small Van, Big Hustle
Perfect for city runs and tight deliveries.
- Payload: Up to 1,000 kg
- Cargo space: Up to 4.4 cubic meters
- Length: 4.4 to 4.75 meters
The Fiat Doblo is your go-to for last-mile delivery and mobile services that need to zig-zag through city traffic. It’s compact but surprisingly roomy inside, making it great for logistics operators working in tight urban areas. You get infotainment tech, driver comfort, and just enough space to carry tools or packages without wasting fuel.
Scudo: Mid-Size Muscle That Moves Like a Car
Blends cargo space with driving comfort.
- Payload: Up to 1.4 tons
- Cargo volume: 6.6 cubic meters
- Engine: 2.0L diesel (150hp) with 8-speed automatic
- Length: 5.3 meters
The Scudo sits in the middle — big enough for serious hauling, small enough to not feel like you’re driving a bus. It’s a solid option for contractors, service providers, and shuttle services. There’s also a Ulysse variant with a VIP feel, great for airport runs or executive transport.
Ducato: Heavy-Duty and Ready to Be Anything
Built to handle big loads and bigger ambitions.
- Payload: Over 2 tons
- Cargo volume: 8 to 17 cubic meters
- Engine: 2.2L diesel (140hp)
- Length: 5.3 to 6.4 meters
If you need a workhorse that can double as a mobile shop, cold storage, or even a mini command center, the Ducato is the one. It’s made for businesses with serious transportation needs. Think logistics, long-haul routes, and complex upfits. Features like the ergonomic “Eat & Work” seat and optional electric parking brake keep drivers comfortable and productive.
Why This Matters for the GCC
The launch isn’t just about selling vans. It’s a signal that Stellantis (Fiat’s parent company) is doubling down on the GCC. Businesses here get access to:
- Local parts supply
- Regional after-sales support
- Customization for specific industries
Fiat sold over 1.8 million LCVs globally last year and leads the market in Europe, South America, and the Middle East. Adding the full lineup to the GCC puts more tools in the hands of regional businesses that need reliable, flexible transport.
The Bottom Line
Fiat’s three-van push into the GCC gives businesses options depending on how much they haul, how far they go, and how much they want to spend on fuel. The Doblo is tight and agile. The Scudo is balanced and comfy. The Ducato is the big rig with brains.
